The SAFEWORD Meme

[liberee_delivree]

Sometimes when we're doing the deed, for one reason or another, we feel more in pain, fearful or just plain uncomfortable than pleasurable. When this happens, we want to be able to stop or slow down as soon as possble, and the most common way to do that is to use a safeword.

"A safeword is a code word or series of code words that are sometimes used in BDSM for a submissive (or "bottom") to unambiguously communicate their physical or emotional state to a dominant (or "top"), typically when approaching, or crossing, a physical, emotional, or moral boundary."

Note: A safeword doesn't have to be used during a BDSM scene. It could be used in the most basic vanilla sex, and the word itself could simply be "stop". Additionally, the scene doesn't have to be sexual at all, but focused on non-sexual BDSM. Regardless of what you chose, a safeword needs to be uttered, and both partners need to deal with the aftereffects of it.

RULES

oo1. comment with your characters
oo2. include preferences
oo3. roll and respond to others!



WARNING: If a character decides to ignore the safeword, they are officially in non-con territory. If you want that as an option to thread, either giving or receiving, list it in your preferences, and be sure to talk with your threading partner about it, too.
