Some Uncertainties: I'm not very creative.

First time thread-starter... sorry if this is off-topic or subtly banned but...

Any good ideas for safewords?

Something Beatley perhaps, an example of safewords? What sort of safewords do other people use, how easy should they be to say while being tickled?

All My Lovin',

I always encourage my ticklees to use the phrase "Dont Stop" as a safe word.

Welcome to the TMF, total-individua, and congratulations on your first post. 😀 This is a wonderful place, have fun here.

A safeword should be something that you wouldn't say in ordinary conversation, but is easy to pronounce.

Mistress Zara has me use "lavender" as a safeword. Other safewords I have used are "red" (not a good choice since it does come up in ordinary conversation), "kazoo," and "warthog."

Hello,

Welcome to the forum.

The topic of safewords is 100% ok to bring up. And it's an important one for folks moving into bondage play.

There is a fair amount of debate as to what words work best.

I've always been of the mind that simple is best. 'Red' for stop everything now, 'Yellow' for check on me. Some like to use Apple and Bananna.

The idea is that the word should be distinct and easy to say, even if the person using it is in a state of distress. The word should never be something that could be confused with the normal things that a begging person would say.

The poster that suggests 'Don't Stop' above, provides very bad advice, that could be harmful. Words like Please, Don't, Stop, Help, etc are all things that a person in 'good' distress might say as part of the enjoyment of the situation. You need to be able to tell when Stop means STOP RIGHT NOW, I HAVE A CRAMP! and Stop means GOD I HATE THIS IN A GOOD WAY KEEP AT IT! By haveing a safeword like Red, the first situation can be differentiated.

One chooses a short word like Red because sometimes on tiny word is all a person can get out. While saying I have a cramp, stop for a sec may well be possible, it's always good to have a fast ripcord just incase the person can't.

I don't do safewords but my first ler said to use something you wouldn't normally say, like "ardvark." When I went to Passive Arts, the girls insisted I have a safeword~they suggested I use the house safeword, which is, ironically, "safeword." I didn't use it though.
XOXO

hehe, no no goddess, "safeword" is my safeword.
"Mercy" is the one used by all those gorgeous PA ladies.
But I think steph has the best safeword, which is more of a look that says "I like light touch and don't you forget it." heheehhe

 

[steph]

You silly babe! Are we helping this poster at all? I mean where the heck did she go?
XOXO

Note to Steph and bellystrokes: Memorize this safeword. honorificabilitudinitatibus. You are both lovely and intellegent goddesses, so it shouldn`t be an issue.

Count Chocula. Just a suggestion...

 

[total-individua]

Yeah I'm still here, I've just been watching suggestions. Something short, not said very often in everyday conversation, and most of all, something individual. Bulldog? Flobadob? 😀 Paulie? Ah, I love Paulie. Want so much to be tickled by him... but now it's off-topic...

It generally funny if it's something a person doesn't want to say, relating to a personal argument.

Getting somebody to proclaim as loud as they can that their favourite sport team sucks provides a great feeling of accomplishment.

But generally, it's a safe bet to go with one syllabel words that wouldn't even pop up in normal conversation. "Zoom" or "Duck" are examples (I guess?).

Steph, I've got a safeword for you and it'll be music to my ears 🙂
