Hello all you eden BDSM readers. So my man and I are still new to the rougher side of sex. And I've been learning a lot just by looking at some of the forums and where I've read on other sites. However, I have a question. How on earth do you use safewords when you're gaged or something of the sort. As well as how to tell them if you something is to much or to keep going? William an I have been talking about it a LOT and as much as we like what we do and we enjoy new things. We're both over analytical and I have some fears because I have past issues and he has his own worries. so we want to be sure to have a good safe system so we can play without much worry. Maybe tell me how you handle or would handle this? Thanks!
How do you use safewords when you can't speak?

I personally would come up with a hand signal or something of the sort, such as holding up only your pinky means stop. It would be hard to do on accident and easy for him to recognize.

If your doing it in the dark You should get something that will make a loud sound as it hits the floor or bedside table. Otherwise you could use hand signal or handkerchief. Something that can be seen.
02/07/2012
Definitely a hand signal.
02/07/2012
Oh yeah, a hand signal is important. And I agree with BobbiJay about having something close at hand that can be knocked off the bed. Safety is IMPORTANT and everything needs to be considered.
02/07/2012
Something you could drop, a bell you could ring, something you could knock on a specified number of times, a rattle, a squeaky toy type of thing, some other kind of noise maker device. A hand signal is a good idea but something that makes noise would make me feel safer because it couldn't be missed. Something you could do repeatedly would be good because then you could identify a number of times means a certain thing. Ie: if I ring the bell once keep going, twice slow down, three times stop. Maybe one of the hotel counter type bells. Whatever it is, make sure it's in your hand or where you could easily grab it if you're tied up.

Thanks everyone these are all fantastic!

These are all fabulous suggestions and I was going to mention a bell. That's what Daddy and I use when we're playing and I'm gagged and bound.

I will usually slap my hand against the bed or will snap my fingers so that he hears a noise and will know something is wrong and I need to be ungagged.
02/07/2012
Personally, I've always used a cat toy - the little balls with the bells inside... That way, even if your wrists are bound, you're hooded, blindfolded, gagged or whatnot, you can toss or drop that toy and those bells will ring.
The two of you can decide what that will mean (pause, stop the scene immediately, etc.) - but it's a way to alert someone who otherwise might be clearly in top space and might not notice a hand gesture.
Good luck!

The cool thing about having something to drop as a safeword during bondage play, is that even if you are emotionally feeling fine your body still may need to use that safeword. If the rule is you must hold the ball/bell/whatever the whole time and your hands start to go numb, you will eventually drop the item. So even if you are feeling okay in the scene, it gives your body a way to make it's needs heard too.

We actually use one of those dog clickers. The one I use has a wrist strap so I can't drop it, and it's loud enough to get his attention and easy to use.

Well a BDSM comic I read on dA mentions humming a simple tune or something similar that's easily recognizable as a possible alternative to a safeword when you're gagged. Haven't tried it myself but it seems like it could work if you don't want to try the dropping an item or ringing a bell thing.

The various something in your hand ideas other have give are probably best for all the reasons listed but another alternative is to have a signal based around moving your head, i.e. three firm while mumbling "nuh nun nuh" shacks means stop. btw that seems familiar to any one it is the gagged safe-word kink.com uses and that they explain before each scene.

I did this once...because I was loosing feelings in my hands (I was too short for the restraint set-up and we ended up removing the restraints having me be a good girl and merely hold onto the bars in front of me as the demonstration in impact play continued.

Hand signal or finger snap should do the trick.

This is my favorite idea by far! I've always been hesitate to play gagged because I have a history of breathing problems and the idea of having something obstructing my mouth scares me and combined with not being able to speak terrifies me. None of the other ideas, though I've explored a lot of them, ever made me feel safe enough. But the clicker idea with a wrist strap on it might actually change my mind!

We've found that snapping three times quickly, much like the universal distress signal, gets my attention. So make sure that your hands are free if tied

You just make a signal. For example kink.com uses three sharp consecutive grunts. You could use a hand single. You could shake your head back and forth in a no motion continuously.
A lot of it is also non-verbal. I can tell when my partner is not enjoying something or it is too much and I can stop without a signal. When topping you have to watch.
We use red, green, and yellow as safewords when we can speak. You can do something similar with no words. You can use a yes (up and down head motion) for more. You can use a no head motion for stop.

We use a hand signal. When we play with me gagged, and cuffed, we only use cuffs that I can get out of on my own. That way, I'll be able to let him know if something's wrong. When I'm not gagged, we'll use real cuffs that he needs a key to unlock.

I have a safe word, but I usually use a hand signal too if I can't speak.

I agree with noises. Whenever I am about to start a scene, I tell my sub to hit something. Knock on the wall twice or ring a bell. When I am concentrating on flogging or something else I would not notice a pinky up and would not like to have to watch out for it.
