I figured it high time I started documenting my story since the stories from many of you on here helped me take this huge step towards a better me. I'm going to try documenting as much of my process as I can in hopes that I can help someone else out there. (Plus, I'm expecting it to be pretty damn cathartic.) I have somewhere around 32G/H breasts. The bras I am wearing now are a 32G which I got for my 16th birthday- wow was that shopping trip an eye opener. I had been squeezing my poor boobs into anything from a 32DDD to a 36DDD nothing fit quite right because in my brain, boobs did not grow past DDD. BOY was I wrong!!

The canonical text of Noisebridge's anti-harassment policy is on Github. It is reproduced here for convenience.

Noisebridge is dedicated to providing a harassment-free experience for everyone, regardless of gender, gender identity and expression, sexual orientation, disability, physical appearance, body size, race, religion, housing status, or language. We do not tolerate harassment of people at our events or space in any form.

Harassment includes offensive verbal comments related to gender, gender identity and expression, sexual orientation, disability, physical appearance, body size, race, religion, sexual images in public spaces, deliberate intimidation, stalking, following, harassing photography or recording, sustained disruption of talks or other events, persistent uninvited communication, inappropriate physical contact, and unwelcome sexual attention.

Different users of Noisebridge have different levels of comfort about sex and porn. Nobody should be forced to experience sexual or sexualised language or imagery. This does not mean that such material is prohibited, just that such conversations, presentations, &c. should include only interested and consenting people.

When you are working on a sex- or porn-related project at Noisebridge, or are running such an event or presentation, provide reasonable notice and warning to allow others the opportunity to opt out if they wish. With this — as anything else — each person has a responsibility to be considerate of the comfort levels of others. Discussions, projects, and events of this nature should strive to exist in a culture of respect and consent.

People asked to stop any harassing behavior are expected to comply immediately.

People violating these rules may be sanctioned or expelled from the space or the event at the discretion of any Noisebridge member.


If you wish to report harassment anonymously or privately, you can send a message to secretary@noisebridge.net (or contact one of the people who have volunteered as a mediator on the Mediation page).
