Geni-Gender-Torture: CBT for all Bodies w/ Stella Von Domme
Genitals…nearly all of us have them. Like every other part of the body, kinksters have found exciting ways to complicate them & inflict pain. Genital torture & sounding can be a painful, pleasurable, humiliating, & highly control-worthy form of play.
In this class, Stella will introduce you to several forms of genital torture (that's right…both a penis AND a vulva!) with lessons in biology and lots of safety to get you started. We will cover four basic sensations, tools to make them happen (that you probably already have), and how to enjoy your scene as damage-free as possible.
But WAIT! There's more! Not only will we be learning how to bash around those beautiful privates, but we will also be covering urethral sounding for both (you guessed it!) a penis and vulva! We will cover basic biology, discuss the best tools and where to get them and provide helpful tips to get you started.
We will be cramming a lot into two short hours, so bring your listening ears and creative inner sadist to take in all the good stuff! We will have demos of genitorture if time allows. Implements and toys will also be displayed for attendees to examine after class.
About Stella Von Domme
Stella (she/her) started her journey as a sub in the kink/BDSM lifestyle in 2015. Over time, through many transitions, she has found herself comfortable as a sadistic Momma Bear Domme who also likes to have the stress flogged off occasionally.
Stella is a compulsive BDSM educator and has been engaging audiences since 2021. Her first CBT class at the Spanksgiving convention in St. Louis was just the hook she needed! Since then, she has presented for several organizations in the MidWest, Portland, and Salem, Oregon areas and KinkFest in 2023.
Her passion for bringing newbies into the community as safely as possible prompted the creation of a bi-weekly play party geared toward kink/BDSM newcomers. This event was also a vehicle to provide free STD testing, counseling, and community outreach. She utilizes that same passion and energy by providing a monthly virtual Consent and BDSM/kink 101 course (Consent Is Sexy with Stella). She is building a community from those participants as a haven for growth of those still on their journey.
In the dungeon, her interests are widely varied, but she loves scenes that tickle the playful and ridiculous "chaos corner" of her brain! Her style is lovingly sadistic with a "Safety First" emphasis, bringing an emotionally connective aspect to her relationships and scene play.

Lady Vivus
Lady Vivus (she/her) is a spiritually & culturally driven bootblack, Switchinatrix, & a leather cow. She's an out, proud, & fierce-as-fire transwoman. At a young age, she became a believer the first time she saw Arnold Schwarzenegger’s tight ass in leather pants while watching Terminator 2. Since then, Vivus has found a spiritual outlet through leather that's driven her love of bootblacking & leather care to new heights. While hailing from Detroit, Michigan, she has settled in Salem, Oregon, where she serves as the majordomo for her leather family, the Atomic Army.
In her previous 9-5, Vivus assisted in running one of the few behavior services agencies in the world dedicated to supporting folx displaying sexually maladaptive behaviors. During that time working in the field of social sexuality, she was grateful to be able to author sex & gender positive curriculum, as well as curriculum around healthy relationship development.
She hopes to inspire others to enjoy sexuality & dynamics from an authentic place, as well as helping folx their spiritual place with leather & be able to find healing within it as well. Her love of community, education, & sharing ideas with other sex-positive folx is insatiable. Vivus also serves as the lead organizer for the Salem Munch, as well as the Willamette Valley Shine On chapter. Vivus currently serves as a resident bootblack for the Portland Eagle & formerly 50 Shades of STFU & Jiffy Kink. View her upcoming events & workshops HERE!
