Sapphic Flirting Workshop

Come get brave, flirt badly, and have fun doing it. A playful, low-pressure workshop for sapphics ready to shoot their shot. Sapphics say they’re bad at flirting. Sapphics think women are scary. Sapphics are terrified to make the first move. That’s bullshit. Flirting isn’t an innate talent reserved for the charming, the conventionally hot, or the inexplicably self-assured. It’s a skill that anyone can learn. In this two-hour workshop, Bisexual Killjoy co-host Bailey Merlin will help you become a more confident, courageous flirt through candid conversation, practical advice, demonstrations, and low-pressure practice with other sapphics. You’ll learn how to signal interest, recognize when someone may be interested in you, start a conversation, handle rejection without dissolving into the center of the earth, and embrace the beautiful indignity of making a fool of yourself. After all, what does love do but make fools of us all? This workshop is for anyone who has ever failed to speak to a pretty girl in a bookstore, attempted to communicate desire through furtive glances, or spent six months wondering whether “I love your earrings” was a compliment or a come on. Together, we’re taking your flirting game from nonexistent to confident enough to shoot your shot. The space will be playful, supportive, and consent-centered. No one will be pressured to flirt, disclose personal information, or participate in an exercise that makes them uncomfortable. Come alone, bring a friend, or arrive with an entire nervous entourage.
