SF/ONLINE: Tips for House Topping

Are you called to house top and share your skills, but not sure where to start? Perhaps you’re already house topping but want to have better experiences not just for your bottoms but for yourself! Maybe you’ve been puzzled by some key challenges to communicating and gliding into these mini-scenes and want to learn key techniques to make house topping fun again!

We’ll cover:

• Speed negotiations for fast & safe play
• Key questions to maintain clear communication through the scene
• How to calibrate topping to difference levels of experience
• Maintaining boundaries & personal standards in the face of others’ expectations
• Being an ethical psychopomp for new players

Level: Advanced.

This class is designed for three main audiences: People who are new to house topping and want to make this form of edutainment fun for everyone; people who have experience house topping and want to get even better at going as deeply as this format allows while acting ethically and protecting boundaries for self and others; and party organizers who want to offer safe, fun and ethical house topping & sampler party experiences in our communities. While we’ll be focused on the experience of the more common “house top,” we’ll also cover information that will be of use to house bottoms.
