Burghermunch is a Pittsburgh-based pansexual (all-inclusive), 18 years and older group interested in pursuing s/m, dominance and submission, bondage and discipline, fetishes, and other like interests, and spreading knowledge of these areas as an outreach organization for those who are curious and/or wish to find a social outlet with individuals like them.

On the first Tuesday of each month at 7:00pm we get together in the downstairs banquet room of Del's (in Bloomfield) to chat about anything and everything, from the mundane to the kinky. If you've never come to a Burghermunch, please take this opportunity to meet some of the friendliest folks around. You won't be disappointed.

Masters and slaves Together (MAsT) Pittsburgh

E-Mail: markr@mast-pittsburgh.org

Contact: Mark

Our goals are to increase awareness of the dynamics of Master/slave relationships, help people find ways to make these relationships work, and provide a place where Masters and slaves of differing backgrounds and practices can find common ground. We hope to also increase understanding of M/s relationships, protocol, and etiquette among both the Leather and the BDSM communities at large.

• We wish to explore, in more depth, the fun and fulfillment that the Dominant/submissive lifestyles can bring to its participants.

• We are at different levels of experience who wish to have an outlet to explore our feelings and desires.

• We are dedicated to lifelong learning and we are open to learn about and try new things.

• We are open minded and can accept others as they are, regardless of their race, gender, sexual orientation, experience level, age, religion, or creed.

Perhaps more than any other type of relationship, consensual M/s relationships have very little precedent in the vanilla world. There is no rule book, and there is no right way to build these relationships. Each of us has a different style, a different outlook on the way to do this. By gathering here, it is our hope that we can learn from each other and perhaps avoid some of the pitfalls that others of us may have already encountered. We are different from other local groups in that our focus is solely on Master/slave topics and relationships.

We are gay, lesbian, straight and bisexual men and women who wish to learn from and network with each other in a safe, secure and friendly environment.

Meetings are held at Claddagh Irish Pub in the South Side Works on the 2nd Wednesday of the month.  

Meet n Greet begins at 7 p.m. and the business meeting and discussion starts promptly at 730 pm.  

Membership is required after attending 3 meetings.  

$25.00 fee for a yearly membership.  

$3.00 for all non-members to attend.   Free for members.

MISSION STATEMENT: The Next Generation (TNG) Pittsburgh is a BDSM peer group primarily designed to welcome and educate individuals new to the BD, D/s, and SM lifestyles or new to the Pittsburgh area. However, TNG Pittsburgh welcomes all who wish to join regardless of experience level or age providing you are accepting and respectful of all of our members.

Our mission is to create and foster a supportive and enriching safe haven comprised of mutual respect and acceptance, fluid communication and honesty, and exploration without judgment as we pursue our passions, needs, desires and enjoyment with regards to BDSM. We do so while fueling our creativity and inquisitive nature, as well as developing peer kinships and establishing strong roots within our local kink community.

In addition to these values, our focus is to promote education using the tenets of SSC and RACK, personal growth, and community cohesion.

Accountability and personal responsibility are essential to achieving this mission and it is vital that our members are the embodiment of these qualities for the betterment of TNG Pittsburgh by holding ourselves to higher standards so that each and every one of us is an exceptional representative of the whole.
