#MeToo #BurningMan #BurningManCulture #Burners RENO, Nev. (AP) — The Me Too movement is making its way to Burning Man. Organizers are reminding attendees that just because the counter-culture festival in the Nevada desert is known for occasional nudity and kinky landmarks like the "Orgy Dome," it doesn't mean it's a free-for-all when it comes to touching or nonconsensual sex, the Reno Gazette-Journal reported.

Well, the good news (or perhaps the bad) is that it’s not just me.
