On September 15, 2000, five Toronto police raided the Pussy Palace,* an exclusive sex party and bathhouse event for queer women and trans people. Following reports from two undercover female police officers who were sent in to investigate the space, five male, plainclothes police officers entered the Palace and spent 90 minutes interrogating and surveilling upwards of 350 patrons who were in various states of undress. The police later charged two volunteer organizers with violating the Liquor License Act, resulting in a public trial.

*The Pussy Palace was later renamed the Pleasure Palace to acknowledge the diversity of bodies and gender identities that made use of this space.

As a collective, narrators remember the Pussy Palace as an electric, liberating, and carefully curated, subversive space where lesbians, queer women, and trans folk could explore sexuality in ways often reserved for cisgender gay men. Broadly speaking, interviewees have shared how the space influenced their relationships with sex, community, and the policing of transgressive sexualities and gender identities.
