| We’ve been to quite a few clubs, and until tonight have never come across a guy who has touched without asking or acted disrespectfully toward us in any way. However, we experienced our first sexual assault tonight at Decadence. Worse still, the staff’s response could not have been more disturbing.
We were playing in the dungeon with a single male. Courtney was tied up on a cross, but wearing underwear. We were alone in the dungeon until a female member of the Decadence staff came in with a single male. The member of staff approached us to say hello, then without warning the man who was with her rushed forward and, without asking, pulled Courtney’s underwear down and put his face between her legs. Courtney, being tied up, was helpless to prevent the attack. Marc pulled the man away, and the man was taken upstairs by the member of staff, who excused the incident by saying that the man was too drunk to understand what he was doing. Around 10 minutes later (after getting dressed and saying goodbye to the man we were playing with), we came upstairs to find that the man who had assaulted Courtney was still in the bar. We complained to the member of staff who witnessed the incident that he was still there and were told that he would be removed soon. Marc took Courtney to the car, then returned to talk to the club manager. Upon returning he found that the man was waiting outside the club’s front door. Marc went inside and spoke with the manager, only to find that she was not aware of the incident and that there were no plans for removing the drunk and angry man from the premises.
So, just to be clear:
-The club served alcohol until to a man who was too drunk to be trusted in a play room.
-A member of staff brought a drunk man into a play room where a woman was tied up.
- A member of staff failed to remove the man from the club or even report the incident to other members of staff.
- The man was allowed to stand right outside the club and to continue interacting with other club guests.
We will not be returning…ever.
