We’re having a Godless Perverts Social Club on Tuesday, August 7, at Wicked Grounds, 289 8th St. in San Francisco (near Civic Center BART), 7-9 pm. This will be our crafts night!
We’ll be making decorations and props for our upcoming Impurity Ball, a dance party and activities extravaganza spoofing Purity Balls and celebrating consent and pleasure. We’ll be making paper chains, paper dildos for Pin the Dildo on Jesus, and whatever other decorations people are inspired to make. We’ll provide scissors, tape, construction paper, and other crafts supplies: we also encourage you to bring your own. And if you don’t like making crafts, you’re welcome to come join us and just hang out. We did this last year for the Holiday Fun Time party, and it was one of the silliest and most fun Social Clubs we’ve had.
The Social Club is free, and all orientations, genders, and kinks (or lack thereof) are welcome. Wicked Grounds has beverages, light snacks, full meals, and amazing milkshakes: please support the cafe if you can, and please tip generously. If you can’t afford cafe prices, Wicked Grounds customers have bought you coffee or tea: just ask for your beverage to paid for “from the wall.”
Community is one of the reasons we started Godless Perverts. There are few enough places to land when you decide that you’re an atheist; far fewer if you’re also LGBT, queer, kinky, poly, trans, or are just interested in sexuality. And the sex-positive/ alt-sex/ whatever- you- want- to- call- it community isn’t always the most welcoming place for non-believers. So please join us! Hang out with other nonbelievers and chat about sex, sexuality, gender, atheism, religion, science, social justice, pop culture, and more. Godless Perverts is now a non-profit organization, and donations are tax-deductible.
Godless Perverts presents and promotes a positive view of sexuality without religion, by and for sex-positive atheists, agnostics, humanists, and other non-believers, through performance events, panel discussions, social gatherings, media productions, and other appropriate outlets. Our events and media productions present depictions, explorations, and celebrations of godless sexualities — including positive, traumatic, and complex experiences — focusing on the intersections of sexuality with atheism, materialism, skepticism, and science, as well as critical, questioning, mocking, or blasphemous views of sex and religion.
Godless Perverts is committed to feminism, diversity, inclusivity, and social justice. We seek to create safe and welcoming environments for all non-believers and believing allies who are respectful of the mission, and are committed to taking positive action to achieve this. Please let the moderators or other people in charge of any event know if you encounter harassment, racism, misogyny, transphobia, or other problems at our events.
