It’s odd, she reflected, how you can get into a scene and lose some of your inhibitions and go ⬛⬛⬛, and while it’s happening, you think you’ll do anything, but of course you won’t … Under severe and continuous pain, the soul reaches a certain kind of clarity. Confusion and hope can’t be tolerated … No, it’s better to scream freely, without restraint, to plead for mercy, to struggle beautifully, to sweat and strain, to be marked and marked again, to ask ⬛⬛⬛ what ⬛⬛⬛ wants, to agree to everything ⬛⬛⬛ says, to ask for more if that is what ⬛⬛⬛ wants, to confess, to grunt like a pig or howl like a dog, to promise anything—anything—if only it will stop.

Lecken is an ⬛⬛⬛⬛⬛ dance party with a strong commitment to the dance floor, grounded in feminist and trans-inclusive politics. In trying to encourage ⬛⬛⬛⬛ playfulness and expand potential forms of connection and conviviality, we work to center the needs of women* and femme-identifying people as conscious architects, rather than passive objects, of ⬛⬛⬛⬛. Transformation proceeds from the concerns of the most vulnerable.
