Analog role-playing games provide fantastic opportunities for players to explore how their characters present gender, conduct relationships, and --yes-- even have sexual encounters. However, delving into sex in a tabletop game can get complicated quickly. So how do you create a safe, affirming, consensual, and sex-positive experience for players? When everyone’s desires are different, how do we collaborate to build a sex inclusive narrative? Join GaymerX and Friends as our panel of TTRPG writers, GMs, and gaming professionals take a close look at how we do (or don’t!) discuss sex in analog games.
