Happy 21st Birthday, SecondLife!
“Elemental Wonders: A Virtual Odyssey”

MELD2024 Roadshow: Femdom Mythbusters
Whet your appetite for the MELD by catching the roadshow!
Are you curious about female dominance in relationships but unsure what’s fact and what’s fiction? Join us for an enlightening Q&A session with a panel of Dominant Women where we’ll bust myths and uncover the truths about female dominance. We’ll explore the realities of female-led dynamics, debunk common misconceptions, and provide a supportive space for open dialogue.
Whether you’re new to the concept or looking to deepen your understanding, this discussion will offer valuable insights and practical perspectives. Bring your questions and don’t miss this opportunity to learn, share, and challenge the stereotypes surrounding female dominance in relationships.
In our effort to build bridges into the wider kinky community, we’ll be hosting several of these events at different Femdom-friendly venues leading up to the MELD. Keep an eye on FCC group notices to catch a roadshow on a grid near you!
