SSC
Safe, Sane, Consensual
SSC is a traditional and well-known approach that ensures safe and responsible practice of your BDSM activities. If SSC is important to you, you should consider:
- Is the activity safe?
- Is it reasonable to practice the activity objectively and subjectively with this partner?
- Do we all understand what will happen and do we all agree to it?
It goes without saying that all partners must agree on what is considered safe and healthy. This approach works great if you and your partners are on the same wavelength, have similar views, and understand how the practice is applied. If this is not the case, misunderstandings can easily arise, so discuss and communicate things very transparently. If SSC rules do not seem like the right approach for you or are too vague or limiting, there are other options.
