Pleasure Curious
Season 2026
We talk about vulvas so much… this month we’re going to change the focus a bit. Let's talk about pen1ses - with science, flair, and zero shame! Join us for what promises to be an enlightening (and entertaining) event with rock hard facts but also delightful softness in our approach. Our experts will be medical professionals, sex therapists, and a fabulous local drag queen bringing much-needed light and levity to p3nis realities.
What We're Getting Into:
This isn't your typical "performance" talk. We're diving deep into the physiology of arousal, the real deal on erections and ejaculation, and the mind-body connection that can make or break intimate moments. We'll unpack how performance anxiety creates its own vicious cycle and explore the psychosocial pressures that turn natural bodily functions into stress-inducing expectations.
Everyone Welcome: All genders (yes, including cisgender straight guys!), orientations, ages 18+, abilities, experience levels - from kinky to vanilla and everything between. This is your space.
Event: Pleasure Curious: The P3nis One
Date: May 28, 7pm ET
Pleasure Curious Continues monthly on fourth Thursdays March-October.
Location: Asheville, NC - River Arts District Brewing Company 13 Mystery St, Asheville, NC. Food truck on-site!
How does it work? One-hour panel discussion followed by anonymous Q&A. Audience members are NOT asked to share personal things. This is for entertainment and having a good time talking about taboo shit. :)
Amazing sex requires feeling safe to say no. Join us for an in-depth and nuanced conversation about consent that goes way beyond the basics - because when your "no" is truly respected, your "YES!" becomes absolutely electric. Power and energy, y’all. If we want to get our bodies to do amazing things, we need to set them up for success!
What We're Breaking Down:
We're diving into why emotional safety is the secret ingredient to mind-blowing intimacy. When you're worried about disappointing someone or facing consequences for hesitating, genuine enthusiasm becomes impossible. We'll explore how creating space for authentic "no" unlocks the freedom to give enthusiastic, full-body "yes" that transform everything. We’ll even talk about ways of receiving “No” without getting your feelings hurt or your arousal crushed!
Everyone Welcome: All genders (yes, including cisgender straight guys!), orientations, ages 18+, abilities, experience levels - from kinky to vanilla and everything between. This is your space.

Ready to turn your group sex fantasies into amazing realities? Let's talk threesomes, moresomes, and everything in between - with real talk, practical tips, and zero judgment. Because when everyone in the room is curious about the same things... you know exactly what we mean.
What We're Getting Real About:
That "let's add a third to spice things up" fantasy? We're unpacking what you're actually craving and how to make it happen safely and satisfyingly. We'll dive deep into the logistics, emotions, and dynamics that can make group sex absolutely incredible - or incredibly awkward. From managing jealousy to handling performance pressure, we're covering it all.
Everyone Welcome: All genders, orientations, relationship styles, ages 18+, abilities, and experience levels. Whether you're poly-curious, already non-monogamous, or just exploring fantasies - this is your space.
Let's make your group sex dreams come true - safely, consensually, and spectacularly.
"I want to give you everything you want." Cue internal panic. Sound familiar? If you've ever frozen when asked what you desire sexually, you're not alone. Let's break through the layers of societal bullshit and figure out what YOU actually want - not what you think you should want.
What We're Unpacking:
We live under mountains of social constructs that tell us what "good" sexuality looks like, leaving many of us completely disconnected from our authentic desires. We can rattle off what we "should" want, but when put on the spot? Crickets. We're diving deep into why this happens and giving you concrete tools to cut through the noise and connect with your genuine wants.
Everyone Welcome: All genders, orientations, ages 18+, abilities, and experience levels. If you've ever felt lost in the "what do you want?" question, this is absolutely for you.
It's time to discover what YOU actually want - and own it completely.

Welcome to the decade+ when your body hits the biological "plot twist" button and suddenly nothing feels familiar - including yourself. If you're navigating perimenopause (hello, ages 35-60!) or loving someone who is, this event is your roadmap through the beautiful chaos.
What We're Getting Real About:
Perimenopause isn't just hot flashes and irregular periods. It's desire doing backflips, vaginas staging protests, and that wild "who am I even?" feeling that can leave you unrecognizable to yourself. We're breaking down the physical, emotional, and psychological shifts with medical professionals and therapists who actually get it. Plus, we're diving deep into that "no f*cks left" phenomenon - because sometimes forced catharsis is exactly what we need.
Everyone Welcome: All genders, orientations, ages 18+, abilities, and experience levels.
Essential for anyone 35-60 or their partners.
Sometimes losing f*cks is exactly what we need to find ourselves.
Here's how it works: The first hour features our panel of experts breaking down the topic and sharing some seriously good insights for you to take or leave as you please. Then we flip to an anonymous Q&A where you can get those burning questions answered!
Time: 7:00pm
Location: Asheville, NC - River Arts District Brewing Company 13 Mystery St, Asheville, NC. Food truck on-site!
If you've got one (a butt, that is) and you're curious about anal play, or if your partner is doing some pondering, this is your no-nonsense guide to making it amazing instead of awful.
What We're Diving Into:
Forget everything you think you know about anal play from poorly made porn. We're bringing together medical professionals and experienced ahem practitioners to give you the real deal on anatomy, preparation, communication, and pleasure. Spoiler alert: pain is absolutely NOT required, and when done right, this can feel just as incredible as any other kind of sex you're having.
Everyone Welcome: All genders, orientations, ages 18+, abilities, and experience levels. Whether you're anal-curious, experienced, or supporting a curious partner.
Because everyone deserves pleasure that feels good - in every way possible.
