I think from a switch-dom perspective, an online safe word is extremely important. Unfortunately, to be honest I never thought about it before reading this thread.

But for someone like me, I unlike so many here do not have the years of dom experience, I can get carried away with stuff I perceived to be alright. (I think I crossed that line once before, but it turned out good in the end.)

Anyhow, before I start going on a ramble, safe words are important to both sides imo, the sub for his/her protection, and the dom/me for keeping it SSC or RACK or whatever other abbreviation is in use today. Thanks for bringing this topic up Ma am
