Limits & SSC - Safe, Sane & Consensual

BDSM Connections encourages the practice of SSC (Safe, sane and consensual) or RACK (Risk aware consensual kink) practices. Whether in a part time BDSM relationship or a TPE (Total Power Exchange) SSC or RACK is an integral part of any BDSM relationship.

How do you define SSC in general terms?

Safe: Both people know the risks and have minimized them to both people's satisfaction.

Sane: Both are capable of knowing what they are getting into, and are capable of informed consent.

Consensual: Both consent to what is happening and have a reasonable idea of what they are consenting to. The consent is free and not coerced.

Limits

Everyone has some type of limits or tolerances, whether it involves certain fetishes or practices, limits are important for both dominants and submissives. There are various way to communicate your limits. Whether by limit card or through verbal communication always communicate your limits and please respect the limits of others.
