NOTAFLOF: No One Turned Away for Lack of Funds
Imagine a series of fascinating brief encounters... an evening of lighthearted intimacy... an elegantly freaky soiree... a chance to practice flirting from the heart. Our time together will consist of a series of facilitated five-minute "dates": semi-random opportunities to connect with other beings in playful heartspace.
We're interested in queering the notion of "dating," in joyously expanding and slyly subverting the grim heteronormativity of the cultural pair-bonding imperative. Recognizing erotic attraction as just one of the rainbow of possibilities that may appear between a pair of queers, no effort will be made to sort people out by customary orientation (assuming you have one).
This event is for those who recognize that flirtation knows no gender and who value connection with kindred spirits of all kinds. People of all genders, orientations, ages, shapes, looks, flavors, and relationship status are welcome.
