Silk Ropes, Sharp Teeth

Recognising Covert Abuse in Kink, Poly and Alt Communities

What This Is

Something feels off. You can’t name it yet, but you’ve seen the pattern.

A well-liked top who always plays in private. A charismatic mentor whose exes disappear quietly. A whisper in the bathroom. A gut feeling no one wants to validate.

Silk Ropes, Sharp Teeth is a live class about those moments. The ones where harm doesn’t look like harm, until it’s too late.

Led by Lady Grey, this session offers grounded, emotionally intelligent tools for recognising covert abuse and responding with clarity. It’s designed for people who care about power, trust, and the quiet responsibility of keeping each other safe.

To be clear, this is not a crisis response class but it is a wake-up call and a warm invitation to see more clearly, so we can love and lead more bravely.
