MADE BY DET BLØDE RUM


How to Make a Room Soft -
another Zine by Det Bløde Room

This zine is for us as a community and for those who are interested in starting their own support and networking groups. This zine is an attempt at sharing some of our reflections, perspectives and experiences with you, so your community can create your own support and networking group or incorporate some of our experiences into an already existing one. Everything written in this zine is based on the knowledge and experience gathered throughout the years of existence, which is close to a decade at this point.

 

Intimacy, Sex & Boundaries After Sexual Assault

This zine is for those who have experienced sexual assault and for those who want to understand and help those who have had such experiences. Intimacy, sex, boundaries, and consent can be hard to navigate after sexual assault and other traumatic experiences. We cover everything from talking about trauma to body language to verbal consent and coping strategies. The zine is written by Det Bløde Rum, which means that everything is written from a survivor’s and a queer perspective.

 

ZINE - HELP! - A Guide to consent, allyship and boundaries

This zine is produced by Det Bløde Rum. It has been created with the help of group participants. They have been so kind to share their experiences in order to offer support to those who are close to people who have experienced trauma. The group felt a need to share coping strategies from a more personal perspective. Therefore we have gathered their most important tips in this zine. The topics are:
- Listen actively
- Cover the person’s needs
- Don’t question the narrative
- Let go of control
- Support and selfcare
- Get more help
- Coping strategies
