Alternative Northern Ireland

This group is here to promote a safe, secure and open-minded community, built on trust and mutual respect.

Simple as that. Just a place to be yourself without fear of prejudice or ridicule. It is not a dating agency, or a place to seek casual encounters. It is not out to promote any particular kink or style of play. It is not about imposing control. Well, no more than is necessary to ensure members' safety.

We are conscious that the site can appear ‘cliquish’ at times, simply because many of the long-term members are so well-known to one another. This really is not the case though. In fact we go to great lengths to keep the community as open and welcoming as possible while still protecting member safety and privacy.

We like all of our newcomer fellow kinksters to participate in a meet-and-greet before attending a munch or party. It's just an informal chat over a glass of something suitable! That way you get to see that we are who we say we are, settle your nerves, and get help with any questions you may have. And it allows us to see that you are who you say you are. So please post and join in chat and, when you feel comfortable, add your name to the meet-and-greet list and we'll arrange one asap.

So, in short, this group just provides a means for a bunch of like-minded people to get together, share ideas and help one another as best they can, and have fun. If that appeals to you, do please feel free to get involved.
