As a general rule of thumb, it&#8217;s best to pick a word that you wouldn&#8217;t normally say during sex. Fruits and colors are top choices with some of the most popular safewords being \u201cred,\u201d \u201cbanana,\u201d or \u201cpineapple.\u201d Others choose words with personal meaning or use ridiculous phrases like \u201cRichard Nixon\u201d or \u201cHippocampus.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Typically, safewords are most useful during play that has a higher than average degree of physical and\/or emotional risk. Intimate encounters in which boundaries are pushed, vulnerability is high, ongoing communication is required, or that involve edgier play fall into this category. Resistance scenes, otherwise known as <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/zippermagazine.com\/consensual-non-consent-cnc-rape-fantasy\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">CNC or consensual nonconsent<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, require safewords because ignoring \u201cno\u201d is part of the consensually negotiated role play.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Safe words have a place in vanilla sex too. As our culture becomes increasingly consent savvy, more people recognize that tools for communicating desires and limits are needed in low-risk situations too. Of course, if a safeword isn\u2019t established, plain language like \u201cno\u201d or \u201cdon\u2019t\u201d should always be taken seriously and treated like traditional safewords.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><h2><b>Non-Verbal Safe Words or Safe Signals<\/b><\/h2><p>\u00a0<\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Safe signals come in handy when someone\u2019s wearing a gag or unable to speak. They\u2019re also a must in environments where partners may not hear you. Even if you\u2019re not playing in a way that warrants using a safe signal, it\u2019s a good idea to establish one anyway as a backup. Some safe signal ideas:\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><ul><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Two quick firm taps on your partner&#8217;s body<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Hold a set of keys in one hand and drop them to call your safeword<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Hold a squeaky dog toy and squeeze it to signal<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Establish eye signals \u2013 three fasts blinks and two hard squeezes, for instance\u00a0<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">An agreed-upon series of finger snaps<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Hum a recognizable tune like \u201cHappy Birthday\u201d or knock the rhythm of \u201cShave and a Haircut\u201d on a nearby object<\/span><\/li><\/ul><h2>\u00a0<\/h2><h2><b>Traffic Light Safe Word System\u00a0<\/b><\/h2><p>\u00a0<\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Rather than establishing just one code word to mean stop, many folks in the kink community use a series of words to communicate how they feel at any given time. The traffic light system is a graduated safeword framework in which \u201cred\u201d means stop, \u201cyellow\u201d is caution, and \u201cgreen\u201d means proceed. This kind of consent check is an amazing communication tool for giving both positive and negative feedback during a scene. You can also seek it out by asking \u201cwhat color are you?\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Note that the exact meaning of each color isn\u2019t set in stone. Although yellow signals caution, that could mean \u201cstop briefly and check in,\u201d \u201ckeep going but decrease the intensity a little,\u201d or \u201cdecrease the intensity right now or I\u2019ll have to call \u2018red.\u2019\u201d Similarly, green might be interpreted as \u201cthat\u2019s perfect, keep doing that\u201d or \u201cthat\u2019s \u2018easy mode\u2019 kick it up a notch!\u201d Safe words aren\u2019t universal so it\u2019s important to get on the same page with your partner before you play, but more on that later.<\/span><\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><h2><b>Are Safe Words Only For Submissives?<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/h2><p>\u00a0<\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It\u2019s a common misconception that safewords are only for s-types.

How does this work? During <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/sunnymegatron.gumroad.com\/l\/negotiationwb\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">pre-scene kink negotiation<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, you and your partner(s) agree on your safeword, how it should be used, and what should happen after it\u2019s called.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Most people use safewords like a \u201ctime-out.\u201d Think about how time-out worked on the playground as a kid \u2013 you immediately stopped the action and checked in with each other. Sometimes someone just needed to stop to tie their shoe before resuming play. Sometimes the time-out caller wanted to keep playing but modify the rules because the game felt too intense. Other times that person wasn&#8217;t enjoying any part of it and wanted to stop playing.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Safe words in kink work similarly. You stop, break character if you were in a role play, and check-in. Then you decide if you need to rest, recalibrate, or stop altogether.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If the scene is over you can transition into the post-scene protocol you decided before play. This is usually aftercare which may involve changing into comfortable clothes, eating a snack, cuddling together under a blanket, having sex, or whatever come-down activity you agree on (aftercare is completely customizable too).\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In your pre-scene negotiation, you should also establish a protocol for extreme circumstances. Pre-arrange grounding activities that your partner can help you transition to if you\u2019re triggered during a BDSM scene. Plan for worst-case scenarios too like medical emergencies. Let your partner know what nearby hospitals are in your insurance network or how to respond if a known health issue pops up (i.e. if you\u2019re diabetic, where your insulin is or what sugary snack they can give you for low blood sugar).\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Why establish protocols for hypothetical worst-case scenarios? Because if and when those situations pop up you may not be able to think clearly or make informed decisions about next steps.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-ca73960 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"ca73960\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-b856917\" data-id=\"b856917\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-d0cd2d4 elementor-widget elementor-widget-shortcode\" data-id=\"d0cd2d4\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"shortcode.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-shortcode\"><blockquote class=\"tiktok-embed\" cite=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/@mollenaleewilliamshaas\/video\/7065372027892452655\" data-video-id=\"7065372027892452655\" style=\"max-width: 400px;min-width: 325px;\" > <section> <a target=\"_blank\" title=\"@mollenaleewilliamshaas\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/@mollenaleewilliamshaas?refer=embed\">@mollenaleewilliamshaas<\/a> <a title=\"safewords\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/tag\/safewords?refer=embed\"><\/a><a title=\"kinkeducation\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/tag\/kinkeducation?refer=embed\"><\/a><a title=\"consent\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/tag\/consent?refer=embed\"><\/a><a title=\"noshame\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/tag\/noshame?refer=embed\"><\/a> <a target=\"_blank\" title=\"\u266c original sound - Mollena Lee Williams-Haas\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/music\/original-sound-7065372011501013807?refer=embed\">\u266c original sound - Mollena Lee Williams-Haas<\/a> <\/section> <\/blockquote> <script async src=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/embed.js\"><\/script><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-852f4b2 e-container--column e-container\" data-id=\"852f4b2\" data-element_type=\"container\">\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-93019e6 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"93019e6\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2><b>Using Safe Words Outside of the Bedroom\u00a0 <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/h2><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Kinky couples bring safewords into their day-to-day, non-sexual interactions often.

Safe words can even be used to de-escalate tense confrontations.
