Join Us

Welcome—we’re glad you’re interested in MAFIA! 

Fisting is a deeply trust-based form of play, and we approach membership with the same care. To ensure a safe, respectful, and comfortable community, new members are accepted through a referral and approval process.

Membership is not required to attend our parties, but members enjoy benefits such as early registration, discounted pricing, and access to members-only events throughout the year.

Membership Requirements 

To apply for membership, you must:

• Self-identify as male

• Be 21 years of age or older

• Demonstrate active interest and proficiency in fisting

• Be sponsored by two current, dues-paid MAFIA members

• Pay $35 annual dues plus a $15 new-member fee

While membership is limited to self-identified men, MAFIA does not discriminate based on race, ethnicity, religion, HIV status, physical ability, partnership or marital status, or any other protected category.

Application & Sponsorship 

Applicants must provide the full given names of two current MAFIA members in good standing who can personally vouch for them as safe, reliable play partners and positive contributors to the club. Applications without two valid sponsors will be rejected.

Once submitted, applications are reviewed by the Board of Directors at the next scheduled meeting. Approved applicants are granted provisional membership for 30 days and notified by email of the Board’s decision.

MAFIA-Curious? 

If you’re interested in joining MAFIA but not ready for membership, our monthly social events are a great way to meet other MAFIA members, make connections, and learn from experienced fisters.

If a large social setting feels like too much, or you have questions about joining in a more private, low-key way, feel free to contact our Membership Secretary at membership@mafiaff.org. We’re happy to help you explore your next steps.

Privacy

MAFIA maintains strict confidentiality. Our membership list is private and never shared with non-members.
