"Determining Your Risk Profile" Handout

This is the handout from Lee Harrington's class "Determining Your Risk Profile"

The world is full of risks, but each of us have different levels of willingness, capacity, and interest in taking the risks we might come across in our life. The same is true in our spicy pursuits. In this class we will look at what a risk profile is and how to decide what choices we might feel comfortable with around physical risks, legal repercussions, emotional fallout, potential psychological damage, (mis)communication possibilities, and the effects some play can have on our relationships. From Gambler’s Fallacy and trauma bonding to altered states and disproportionate effects risks can have on some population, this will be a wild ride. Though open to all attendees, buckle in as we will be discussing a variety of play activities as well as things people might consider immoral, illegal, inappropriate, dubious, and dangerous.
