A discussion about safe spaces for sexual encounters

@nejenk model invited to the event offered up this image of themselves relaxing at a gay sauna for the event poster. They posed for three 15 minute poses and conversations responded to safe sexual spaces of meeting, with reflection on encounters with sexual partners through geolocation dating apps like Grindr and gay saunas.

Although saunas in London are often stigmatised and seen as a taboo, they are important for keeping the community safe. In 2016, four men were murdered by a serial killer in North London at home premises during what they believed would be a sexual encounter. Gay saunas were discussed in a way that protected gay men.
