About CAPEX

Who We Are… What We Do… Why We Do It.

The Who…

CAPEX is a non-profit BDSM-centric organization, incorporated January 26, 2008 in the state of South Carolina. The primary mission of CAPEX is to provide education, support and a social network for our Contributors, in a safe, responsible and discretion-conscious environment.

CAPEX is a Contributor driven organization, lead by a Board of Directors. Each Contributor has a voice in the direction of the organization, as well as voting rights in determining the Board and other organizational decisions. Contributors also provide countless hours of valuable volunteer service, helping CAPEX strive and grow along the way!

The What…

CAPEX features monthly demonstrations, presentations and discussions from nationally and locally renowned presenters on a wide variety of BDSM lifestyle topics related to skills, relationship dynamics, physiological, psychological and emotional play, and many more.

Often referred to as a “gateway” to the BDSM lifestyle, CAPEX’s mission to educate it’s Contributorship and their guests on the various areas of the BDSM lifestyle and culture has impacted countless lives in and around the Charlotte area. We have taught on important aspects of safety, beginner and intermediate level skills, and have lead in-depth discussions about many areas that impact our lives on a day to day basis.

CAPEX generally meets each month on the fourth Saturday of the month, with occasionally switching it up due to scheduling needs. Typically, each meeting will include a demo / presentation, followed by a social event for the Contributorship. On occasion, CAPEX will host floor parties, camp outs and dinner gatherings as well.

The Why…

From the very beginning, CAPEX has focused on providing a safe place to learn, explore, grow and be accepted for who you are. The organization is highly diverse, with Contributors of all races, religions, sexual orientations and identities, kink interests and relationship dynamic styles.

Of course, there are rules and By-Laws in place, both to protect the Contributors and the organization. However, CAPEX strives to remain diverse and judgement-free, so our Contributors can feel free to be themselves within the group.

Want to explore, learn and grow on your own journey within this amazing lifestyle? CAPEX is here to offer a supportive and safe environment, while working to help guard your personal needs for discretion.
