Felice, a former Lesbian Sex Mafia's (LSM) Chairperson, is a long time employee of (Toys in) Babeland. Felice provides personal sexual and BDSM dynamics counseling and has been featured nationally and internationally in print and on TV. She has presented nationally at numerous events and organizations, including Black Rose, Pacific Friction, Grand Opening!, Safer SM (Toronto), Dark Odyssey, Toys in Babeland, LSM, TES, TES Fest, KinkFest, and Desire. An accomplished performance artist, Felice has written and performed several shows including Felice Brutality and PsychoSemitic which have been produced in NYC, Boston, and San Francisco. Her shows demand that she hangs—singing—from the ceiling or that she lights the Jewish Sabbath candles with a blow torch… huh …something akin to her life in the scene as a Femme Dyke Switch.
