SSC

n. core concepts

1.Safe, Sane, and Consensual — a foundational consent philosophy in the BDSM community.

2.SSC stands for Safe, Sane, and Consensual — one of the oldest and most widely cited consent frameworks in the BDSM community. 'Safe' means taking precautions to minimize physical and emotional risk. 'Sane' means all participants are in a clear mental state, free from intoxication or coercion. 'Consensual' means all parties have given explicit, informed consent. SSC has been critiqued by some for the difficulty of defining 'safe' in edge play contexts, which led to the development of alternative frameworks like RACK.
