We hope that all the people you meet on the platform are continually working to become better at consent, more skilled in communication, and prioritize inclusion over fear. **Consent** At its best, consent is an ongoing collaboration between two or more people in constant verbal, physical, and emotional dialogue about what each other needs to willingly, safely, and pleasurably engage in an interaction with one another. Consent must be affirmative, competent, informed, unprepared, specific, and ongoing. **Communication** We express our interests, needs, and boundaries, which creates a shared space to connect and play. We choose discomfort over resentment and speak out when things don’t feel good. We equally invite people to communicate their experience whether it’s positive or negative. **Inclusion** To invite everyone to express themselves, organize, and connect, welcomed, and celebrated. Plura will not tolerate any sort of sexism, racism, transphobia, fatphobia, or ableism. Creating an inclusive and welcoming space requires work on all of our parts, especially those who have benefited from unequal power dynamics and move through the world with more privilege.
