Really a misnomer. My husband and I fucked there. It was actually kind of empty, and no other people were involved.
Funny story, they did NOT have an actual dome that year, but our camp next door did.
Several couples were found fucking on our couch cause they thought it was the orgy dome.
Fun times.
Interesting story actually. I was always curious about the artistic aspect of BM, but that's where myself and my friend groups always drawn the line (we dress up for Ren fairs).
No offense, I believe in freedom of expression, but 8 of the 11 people I've ever known who frequently attended Burning Man were unconditionally HR nightmares. By that I mean there's a very distinct personality type that seems drawn to that event and they can't take a hint to just stfu and not talk about it at work when people are obviously disturbed by their comments.
I also know those kinds of people, and they are annoying. But I want to say, over 70k people go to Burning Man every year, so judging them by 11 people you know is not really fair.
I’d say the majority are extremely nice and kind people who are into art, creative self-expression, and environmental sustainability. Then you have some tech bros and rich people who fly in on private planes, clearly not in the spirit of the event. And there are some kids who just want to do drugs and dance (more power to them, but they can be annoying if you are not into their scene).
You rarely hear from the good people because they tend to not walk around showing off that they went to Burning Man. You’d never know my husband went 3 times unless you have a deep conversation with him or it just happens to come up.
But some people will go once and then form their entire personality around it. This is not a reason to dislike the event itself. Like I said, the general population and atmosphere are awesome.
