We are located in New York City, with a membership primarily in the tri-state area of New York, New Jersey and Connecticut. Membership in the Lesbian Sex Mafia is open to all women regardless of level of experience or time in the kink community so long as they are at least 18 years of age. LSM is a trans-inclusive organization and accepts applications from all women, as well as nonbinary, genderqueer, and transmasc people, so long as they feel they have a connection to queer women’s community. We are a support and information group for those who are interested in fantasy and role playing, bondage, discipline, S/M, fetishes, costumes, alternate gender identities and uninhibited sexual expression in a safe, consensual, and confidential way.
Founded in 1981 by Dorothy Allison and Jo Arnone, the Lesbian Sex Mafia (LSM) is the oldest continuously running women’s BDSM support and education group in the country.
We are not a social service agency. However, we are interested in providing information, encouragement and general support. Our principles are few but basic: confidentiality, consensuality, safety and the right of women to explore their sexuality as they choose.
