The Evangelical Perv Association was created to give a voice to the local Corvallis BDSM community. We are an out-growth of the existing Corvallis BDSM Munch, and include both student and community members. Our regular meetings occur every week, in conjunction with the munch.
Our constitution specifies that this group will work with other existing student and Corvallis groups, such as the Lesbian Gay and Bisexual Alliance, to create social and educational events specifically targetted at the BDSM community. As with the rest of the BDSM scene, we emphasize consentuality and safety: the group is dedicated to making information available to those interested in the scene, to help them safely practice these activities and understand the issues of consentuality and communication which are central to what we do.
Some of the activities we have developed with the Lesbian Gay And Bisexual Alliance for this year's Queer Pride Week at Oregon State University include:
