Our story

Real people, real history, and a vision for something bigger.

  • WAQK was created to offer an inclusive space where women and queers of kink could connect, learn, and play without judgment.

    We are all about building a safe environment and making sure our community has a space to grow.

    View our history

  • WAQK is for people whose gender is, or has been, aligned with womanhood or female identity.

    We welcome cis women, non-binary, gender-diverse, and trans people with lived or past connection to those experiences, including those exploring.

  • WAQK’s mission is to support connection, learning, and safe kink exploration through community, education, and care.

    Our vision includes charitable work to uplift people experiencing marginalisation or crisis.

“Inspired by a play space called The Foundry, I built WAQK as a sanctuary for our community. WAQK’s been through a lot over the years, including a long break, but it kept pulling people back in. Now it’s grown into an association, welcoming members and beginning a whole new chapter.” Nik Diesel, WAQK founder
