What safeguards are in place at BENT to reduce the risk of there being any trouble?
For BENT, I’ve put in place a number of safeguards to stay well within the law: • There is no alcohol served at all. This avoids police coming in on the potential for laying alcohol-related charges that may include indecent acts, nudity, sexual activity, etc. • Those arriving MUST be on a pre-registered guest list. Rules are included in the registration information to ensure that people are well informed of the liberal nature of the rules. • Waivers are signed on entry that indicate that people are aware of there being sexual activity in designated areas. This avoids the possibility that police could enter the venue unannounced or undercover, should any complaint be made. • There is a sign where people enter and register, telling people that there is sexual activity upstairs. Those activities are not visible from either the entrance door or anywhere downstairs. There is another sign at the stairway that goes upstairs just in case they missed the first one.
