Safe, Sane, Consensual Defined
The universally accepted credo of this
lifestyle is Safe, Sane, and Consensual.
Safe in that the activities participated
in do not involve the risk of serious or permanent injury. An injury is
an unwanted or unhealthy modification to one's person or state of mind.
(Tattoo's, scarification, and piercings being viewed as intentional decoration
rather than permanent damage...when done properly.)
Sane in that the activities are intended
to result in the mutual pleasure of both parties and are not intended
to result in the rapacious pillage of another's body, emotions and/or
mind for the sole gratification of one party at the expense of the other.
Sane play requires that the Dominant first be in complete control of himself
or herself. The Dominant must then exercise the control given by the submissive
at all times for the mutual benefit and pleasure of both parties. Losing
sight of the very purpose that control was given to the Dominant by the
submissive is exploitative and abusive.
Consensual in that each party has knowingly
and voluntarily agreed to the activities engaged in and did not withdraw
that consent. (Honesty is a prerequisite to knowing consent. Deception
and manipulation render consent unknowing and involuntary).
