But I do not ignore the safeword!
Thanks for the response Myriads and I guess I should have been a little more clear about this before.
I really wish you bought a video from me, because you will find out that all this asumptions are totally wrong.
The scene you are describing, in which Emily is calling the safeword and I seem to keep going, is not new, actually is almost a standard in most of my tickling videos at some point because thats my goal, even when I do light tickling, to tickle the girl until she can't take no more.
But, I do not ignore the safeword. Never! I don't want to reveal all my secrets in public because then other producers might copy them, but what tha heck, just for clarity, this is the kind of things that we talk before starting the session. Red, the safeword, does not apply for tickling. It applies when I do something that they don't like, or makes them feel unconfortable, or if they are in pain or other sort of emergency.
I always tell them that my style is like an explorer, that I search her body for ticklish spot, first with light tickling, and if light tickling doesn't work then I go for the digging, and when I find a hotspot I will exploit it. Hotspot means a spot the drives them crazy when is tickled, normally a place that nobody has found before, therefore they are not mentally prepared to deal with the tickling there. In the shock of the moment normally their first reaction is to call the safeword because is so unexpected.
Now, I always keep eye-eye contact with the ticklee to make sure she is ok. And if you ever buy a clip from me you will see that every five minutes or so I stop the tickling to give her a chance to breath and I ask "are you ok? Need a break?".
Normally when the girl calls the safeword on tickling, even though it doesn't really applies for tickling, I keep tickling for a few seconds and then I stop.
Why? To get the expression in their faces.
Now, I am always extra cautous during the first tickling session with a girl. I call it the basic package because we are both knowing each other, and above all I want she to feel safe in my hands!
Now, Emily is a totally different story, because as my regular girl, we have worked so much and the trust levels between the both of us are so high that I feel confident to cross some of those lines just for a little while and explore the effects. We have a very open policy where I can try virtually anything on her as long as it doesn't hurt or live scars. The safeword is always there in case I do something she really doesn't want me to, but we are clear that in her case, since she is so ticklish, the safeword is really a punch line to make the video more dramatic, or when the action is at the pick.
If you buy the clip and watch it at home you will see that everytime she calls the safe word, after 5 or 6 seconds I stop and let her catch her breath. But you will she that we are laughing and having fun. The good atmosphere is always there.
In the Oh My Emily store we make one hour of tickling video every week! Not just 10 minutes! And is my objective to have something new in every video, a surprise, an experiment! And those experiments sometimes work, sometimes don't, and sometimes work different than we expected.
I hope this clarifies this issue.
In response, for clarity:
The issue here with this clip is not when it was made, nor what people have or have not said about your other product. What has gone on before or after has no impact on the situation that I saw in this clip and took the time to point out. The type of laughter and tickling is not a factor. That the lee is a screamer and not a laugher is not a factor. That people have complained about too hard, and too soft is not the issue either.
The problem I saw in this clip touches upon the safty standards of conduct in the B&D/S&M community that many of us on this forum have practiced in our lives. And that has come to be a part of the tickling communities safe play standards also.
Failing to respect a safeword is a serious serious breach of the agreement between players in situations. It's a action that touches on the very foundations of the sort of play that we do. That is why people are reacting so strongly. You've made a statement about how you 'play'. And sadly its not a safe style. That is what also is bothering people. A safeword is something that is never ignored. Ever.
One can produce clips where real torture is an option easily, by simply coming to an agreement with a model that there will be NO safeword. And that they will need to endure whatever comes. That's cool, as the model is going into that with open eyes. It's the models choice. But once you offer a safeword to a model you are basically promising her that she can stop things if they go past a point where she is comfortable with the intensity. If you then ignore it, you have betrayed your word. Your promise to care for your model. That's why I and others are bothered and shocked.
I've enjoyed your work for many months, and have seen you emerging as one of the years major new producers (It's been a good year for new producers) and seeing this breach of play standards troubled me, and I knew this thread was going to become an issue, so I wished to make it known that I'd seen it and had an opinion. I'm hoping that it was a momentary error in judgement, and is not trully representitive of things. And I feel that is what folks hope to convey. They are surprised that this happened, and further that you seemed proud of it, to the point where you made it the marketing center for the clip.
And to the other posters in the thread, keep things polite, and civil. You're always free to state an opinion, but keep it non-personal. Attacks are not how we do things here. There is no need for a lynch mob. This thread is a way to hopefuly make sure that learning happens, and quality videos will continue to be produced for the community, and models will know they are in a secure situation as they are made.
