“I gasp, and I'm Eve in the Garden of Eden,
and he's the serpent, and I cannot resist.”
- E.L. James, 50 Shades of Grey
The recent “50 Shades” trilogy authored by E.L. James has created a widespread interest
in exploring the world of BDSM. Although many readers may be intrigued and fascinated
by this phenomenon that James has introduced to the general population, one must also
understand that this is a work of fiction and many details surrounding the world of BDSM
were not portrayed in an accurate light. This training will reflectively explore the novel “50
Shades of Grey” and bring to light the issues of power & control, communication skills,
healthy relationships, and personal safety related to the topic of BDSM and all other sexual
relationships. It will also provide professionals with the tools to appropriately convey
this information to the populations they serve, with a specific focus on teenagers and
young adults. (*NOTE: Participants are not required to have read the novel(s) in order to
attend this training.)
Register for this workshop to:
Explain the link between BDSM (Bondage, Discipline/Domination, Sadism/Submission,
Masochism) and the sexual behaviors of young adults and/or teenagers.
Identify the types of behaviors involved in BDSM and how a BDSM relationship is successfully
navigated between sexual partners.
Relate elements of a healthy BDSM relationship to the relationship between Ana and
Christian in the novel ’50 Shades of Grey’.
Describe characteristics of healthy and unhealthy relationships and appropriate communication/negotiation
skills.
Facilitate a lesson plan to teenagers and young adults on healthy relationships and appropriate
communication/negotiation skills.
This training assists Health, Physical Education, and Family and Consumer
Science teachers in meeting NYS Education Standards 1, 2, and
3.
