Welcome to 

Trans Slumber Party!

We are a biweekly Zoom party for trans and non-binary folk! 

Your Hosts

Crash

"Early Show" Host

&

Janey

"Late Show" Hostess

Bluesky: @cpt.janey.gay

 IG: @skipperella.ella.ella.ay

We run for a minimum of 10 hours from the start time, so you can join whenever you can, and dip in and out as you please! If you're looking to raise your spirits in an online party space with fellow non-cis people, then you've found the right place! 

Interested? 

DM @transslumberparty.com on Bluesky or @transslumberparty on IG for the link, and please review our rules before joining:

Rules:

This is a trans and GNC reserved space. Therefore, we kindly ask that cisgender folks refrain from participating. (exceptions can be made for cis partners of trans attendees on a case-by-case basis)

This party is for adults 18+. Minors are not allowed. You must be over 18 to join.

There may be nudity and discussions of adult topics. Please read the room, though.

Consent is vital. Do not pressure others to do something they don't want to, especially as it pertains to the above bullet point.

No bigotry will be tolerated.

Respect people's identities and pronouns. We encourage guests to put their preferred pronouns in their Zoom name.

Respect people's boundaries.

Use good judgment. We try to keep things loose. This is a party after all. However, this relies on our guests having good judgment.

Not a rule persay, but please make your zoom name something identifiable when joining. Bluesky handle for example. This helps us keep out bad actors. If you are stuck in the waiting room, DM @transslumberparty.com. It’s possible that otherwise we may not recognize you.

Guests of #TransSlumberParty are welcome to be sleepy / tired as long as they are actively present. If you should fall asleep, and do not wake up from verbal prodding, the hosts reserve the right to move you into the Waiting Room area of Zoom. If you wake up and want to re-join the call, you are welcome to do so at that time, but will be moved back to the Waiting Room if you fall asleep and are unresponsive again. This policy is in place to respect the privacy and consent of individuals.

We can't guarantee anonymity, but what happens in the slumber party should stay in the slumber party.

If necessary, the admins can add or amend rules mid party. If we missed something on this list, it doesn't mean it's explicitly allowed. If we tell you to stop, stop (please be mindful of the chat function as we may message you there mid-party if there is a concern). Be kind. Be polite. Use common sense.

If you have any concerns or someone is misbehaving, please DM @transslumberparty.com or @cpt.janey.gay. We look forward to seeing you!

Full Disclosure:

This is a Zoom gathering with strangers on the internet run by a few trans folks in their spare time.

While we use the Zoom waiting room feature and don't broadcast links, there is only so much we can do to vet guests.

This party should be considered public. We do our very best to keep everyone safe, but we can't make any formal guarantees of anonymity or guest behavior.

This is not a support group. Feel free to vent about your day, but this should be thought of like a dive bar, not a local support meetup. Overall we want to maintain a light, positive, and most importantly, “party” atmosphere.

Due to the nature of Zoom meetings, it can be difficult to ensure that everyone gets their chance to speak on a topic. We recommend making use of the “Raise Hand” reaction function in Zoom so the host can see can ensure everyone has a chance to speak their mind.

We do not use strict safe space rules that you may be used to in other online trans spaces. We try to use content warnings, but it's not strictly enforced. For example, people may talk about HRT and their transition progress. If you are upset about the current conversation, you may want to leave the party for a bit. Feel free to dm @transslumberparty.com to see if the topic has changed.
