Revolutionary Queer Speed Dating

Hard to meet new love interests in the community without them being your best friend’s ex metamour? Tired of being confronted to liberal bullshit on dating apps?

So join our Queer revolutionary speed dating at Folketshus on the 10th of May from 17 to 22. Enter a cute flirting space facilitated for you to experience speed dating without the normative hassle of it.

It will be a space where flirting is encouraged and facilitated, but not mandatory. It might be a great space to meet a new friend or to have a great conversation with your best buddies. Still, you might build a new polycule as the result of the event, meet the love(s) or your life or a new hot lover, and we wish that so bad for you.

Come with friends or alone. We aim to build a solidaric space where flirting does not feel so vulnerable and lonely, and with plenty of time to debrief and be each other’s wingperson.
Come reimagine flirting and relationships together.

This event is made by radical left queers for other radical left queers.
An ex will definitely be there! Don’t you worry!

17:00 - 17:30 Doors open
17:30 - 18:30 Classic speed dating snap questions in pairs
18:30 - 18:50 Hot debrief in affinity groups
18:50 - 20:00 Table conversations in pairs
20:00 - 22:00: Self-organised flirting space (candles, games, crafts and flirts) + Chill open mic: come and speak about why your friend would be a great date, read your favourite poem, confess a fun dating anecdote, sing a song....

Guidelines:
Flirting can be initiated by one person - but don’t keep flirting if another person does not show signs of reciprocation. It’s better to leave the room unsure, or ask for clarification, rather than cross someone’s boundaries.
Similar for explicitly kinky and sexual conversations; these conversations are co-created and only initiated when specifically asked to, with excitement and enthusiasm.
We are all co-responsible for making this space a great flirting space and reflecting on dynamics and power structures. This means in practice that we help each other making sure that everyone gets enough space.
Don’t misgender people, don’t be racist, ablist, misogynist, transphobic.
Don’t touch others without having been explicitly encouraged to do so. Don’t be pushy or invasive.
Don’t be an asshole. Be kind, sweet, genuine and respectful. We encourage you to be open about what you seek when you enter this space, and to practice explicit, clear and accountable flirting.
