Apologies if this has been discussed many a time before, but a search on “safe word” brings up far too many results. :eek:
For those in a relationship and have a “safe word” (a word to pause the action in bondage and rough fetish play, so that “no” and “stop” can be reserved for roleplay purposes), care to share? How did you come up with it?
For those not in a relationship, do you have one word you particularly like to use with multiple partners, or one you used in past relationships? How did you come up with it?
The safe word I use with my boyfriend is “grapefruit.” We have a running joke about fruit salad, and assigning different sexual meanings to various fruits. Grapefruit wasn’t being used, and it’s a pretty sour and attention-getting fruit, so we thought it appropriate.
The part I enjoy in scenes is really the roleplay, not so much the actual slap & tickle, so my safeword is just to drop out of character and/or address the dom by his first name.
