Mistress Cyan to Speak at Occidental College

LOS ANGELES — Mistress Cyan will be speaking at Occidental College in Los Angeles on Monday, April 2, where she will address students on the topic of BDSM and discuss aspects such as consent and power in sexual conduct.

Mistress Cyan is described as "an honored dominatrix, educator, adult performer and leader with over 25 years in the BDSM community." She has spoken at Stanford University, UCLA, Long Beach State University, Cal State Northridge and Laguna Hills School of Arts.

"Education is very important in dispelling myths concerning what this chosen lifestyle is all about,” Cyan said. “I enjoy speaking at the colleges and universities on the topic of BDSM and alternative lifestyles. The students I have addressed are not limited to those in the human sexuality field. There is quite an interest from students studying the field of sociology; they are training to become social workers, intake nurses and more. It is important for them to know the difference between consensual kink such as BDSM and abuse. It may save lives someday."

Mistress Cyan runs the BDSM dungeon Sanctuary LAX Studios and is on the board of the LA Gay Pride Festival as organizer for Erotic City. She is the organizer behind DomCon Los Angeles, coming up May 9-13 at the Hilton LAX.
