Safekept

In a small community ruled by a controlling religious Council, all women age 20 and above are implanted with Safekeeping chips; these devices prevent orgasm without explicit permission from the individual woman's Keeper. This story is comprised of a selection of threads from a walled-off forum used solely by members of this isolated community. Erotic horror rating, 5k words.

This story takes place in the same world as

The Goodwife Chip

and is a look forward at the culture and technology featured in that story; however, please note that this story is darker, with an erotic horror rating.

_my husband got a call yesterday from our doctor and they said i have to go in or else they will have to report me for non-compliance...didn't the law just pass last month??? how are they already reporting people???

_did anyone else get one yet????? does it hurt??? :( :( :( this seems so wrong......my husband promises nothing will change but i'm scared

SAMMIEKEETS | F | FORUM REGULAR

_Suck it up, buttercup. We are all getting the chip, and it is about time. Got mine voluntarily a year ago...it does not hurt at all. Don't be a baby.

_If you trust your husband, there is nothing to be scared of...unless you are addicted to sin & masturbation. Is that the case? You can ask to be referred for counseling at the appointment.

WILD_FLR_22 | F | NEWBIE

_i am not addicted to anything???? i hardly ever masturbate my husband and i have a very satisfying relationship......not that it is any of your business!!!! you really got the chip voluntarily???? that seems fucked up to me......

_what if something goes wrong and I can't you-know-what at all any more???? like even with permission????

GOCARDINALS_1981 | M | FORUM SENIOR

_Ignore Sammie, she has been on her high horse about this for ages. It is normal to be scared. I think many women are a little scared right now. The Council have their reasons for passing this law but it is going to be a big change.

_The technology is perfectly safe and I am sure your doctor knows what they're doing, nothing will go wrong.

_Have you told your husband how you're feeling? Maybe he can reassure you.

GC_WIFIE_1992 | F | SUBACCOUNT gocardinals_1981

_The law actually passed back in August, the first threshold just went into effect last month. The delay was to allow time for medical care providers to prepare, so they are ready to start scheduling implants immediately. The second threshold passes at the end of the year, and if you have not received the Safekeeping chip by then, you will have to file with the Council the reason for the delay, and if they do not find it legitimate there may be a fine for your husband or steeper consequences.

_I got mine last week, it does hurt a bit. I mean it is a big needle going into the base of your spine, it does sting, and then there were some strange sensations for a couple of days after that while my body adapted to the chip. But it's not so bad.

SAMMIEKEETS | F | FORUM REGULAR

_You "hardly ever" masturbate? I must have missed the part of the Scripture where it said a little bit of sin is fine!

_If my dedication to purity seems "fucked up" to you, then you definitely need the counseling. This is exactly why the Council saw that the law was needed...too many women in this country are getting loose and undisciplined. I pray that you will learn better.

WILD_FLR_22 | F | NEWBIE

_ok just got back from the appointment and OUCH :( :( :( sammiekeets you lied that HURT!!!!!! now my you-know-what is kind of burning.......is that normal? my husband called the doctor and they said it is but i really dont like it :( :( :(

WILD_FLR_22 | F | NEWBIE

_just wanted to update a day later it is burning less now. husband wanted to you-know-what last night but i was feeling too sensitive down there.....kind of regretting it now because he will be at work all day and now that the burning is going away it feels REALLY......you know. ill be honest i tested it and tried to do it on my own......the chip didnt punish me or anything but it just doesnt work any more :(

_anyway thank you to SOME OF YOU (not sammie!!!!!) for your help. for anyone else going in when the nurse asks if you want analgesic say YES.

TITLE: What to do if my dad is my Keeper?

SUBFORUM: Women's Discussion

=====

VAMPIRES_DONT_SPARKLE | F | NEWBIE

_Ok I was just wondering if anybody else is in the same position as me or if anyone has some advice. The situation is that I got my Safekeeping chip put in on my 20th birthday (three months ago) but I am not married...I don't want to get into why but I just don't feel ready yet.

_Since I don't have a husband, I assumed I would just be my own Keeper until I got married. But instead the doctors set my dad as my Keeper. Everyone sees the problem with this...right?! But they said it is the law?

_Any advice on what I should do? Is there any way to get it changed? Or advice on how I should talk to my dad about the problem? Doesn't he have to be in the room to give permission?

SAMMIEKEETS | F | FORUM REGULAR

_What problem would that be? Hmmmm...I wonder...

GC_WIFIE_1992 | F | SUBACCOUNT gocardinals_1981

_Your doctor is correct, it is the law that unmarried women over 20 must have the Safekeeping chip and must have their father or other male family guardian set as their Keeper. Once you get married, your husband will take over.

_You will have to ask your dad about giving you permission. But whether or not he says yes will be up to him. He does not need to be in the room, he can give you permission over a voicemail or text on your phone, or write you a note like a permission slip. As long as you understand that you have his permission, the chip will recognize it.

VAMPIRES_DONT_SPARKLE | F | NEWBIE

_That's what I was afraid of...this is so unfair.

_How am I supposed to ask him that?! It is so embarrassing...even if he doesn't have to be in the room he's going to know exactly what I'm doing!

_I don't think he will even say yes to be honest...don't ask how I know but he hasn't given my mom permission very often...I think just a couple of times since the law passed.

SAMMIEKEETS | F | FORUM REGULAR

_Well, sounds like you should get over yourself and start feeling more ready for marriage! You do not NEED to sin...maybe you NEED to see a counselor.

_And I find it unlikely that any married couple has only had marital relations twice in twelve months!

VAMPIRES_DONT_SPARKLE | F | NEWBIE

_Oh that is NOT what I said...they are definitely still doing that...just trust me on this the walls in our apartment are VERY thin...which by the way does not make this any easier for me.

_Wish me luck, I am just going to bite the bullet and ask him tomorrow.

EMMA_L | F | FORUM REGULAR

_Well? It has been a few days. Just wondering if you had any luck or if we can still help.

VAMPIRES_DONT_SPARKLE | F | NEWBIE

_No :( sorry don't really want to talk about it.

_i just figured i would come out and ask it but has anyone else been having much more intense you-know-whats since the chip????

_not complaining but just curious if it's just me????

GOCARDINALS_1981 | M | FORUM SENIOR

_Not just you ;) my wife has experienced the same. We are both very appreciative of the Council's wisdom when it comes to requiring the chip.

HEY_PRESTO_X0 | F | SUBACCOUNT mr_macavee

_Yes I think it is a normal side-effect. Honestly before I did not care one way or the other about "getting there", mine were pretty anticlimactic and I didn't see what the big deal was. Well...now I GET IT!!

_It is definitely different. If I am very honest it can be kind of embarrassing under certain circumstances...we recently stayed at a friend's house while on vacation and the wife came to me in the morning to ask if I could be quieter and more considerate of them next time...I really couldn't help it!

TITLE: Advice for disinterested hubby?

SUBFORUM: Women's Discussion

=====

EMMA_L | F | FORUM REGULAR

_OK I am starting to go a little nuts here. Frankly, my hubby and I have never had a great relationship in bed. Don't get me wrong, he is a great husband in every other way and I am sure it is partly a failing on my end as well. But the reality is that ever since we had the required three kids, we only "do the deed" a few times a year.

_This didn't bother me too much...until the Safekeeping chip. Now I can't just "take care of things" myself, if you know what I mean. But HE still can, and I know that he is! It is very frustrating...

_Last time we made love was over a month ago, and even then he "forgot" to give me permission until after he had already finished and I asked. Honestly I felt very whorish, rubbing myself and moaning (just can't keep quiet any more since the chip) while he was falling asleep next to me!

SAMMIEKEETS | F | FORUM REGULAR

_You're right, you do sound whorish. Why would you share that with us?

GOCARDINALS_1981 | M | FORUM SENIOR

_Sorry you're going through this. Sounds like the first thing is to fix the relationship with your husband...have you talked to him about why he's not interested?

EMMA_L | F | FORUM REGULAR

_Thanks I have talked to him but he always just says he's busy and acts like I'm bothering him or making things up. Today I tried to ask him again and when I said it had been over a month he said he "didn't think it had". I showed him on the calendar and he just shrugged...

_Seriously what do I do here? I have to listen to him "seeing to" himself in the shower every morning...honestly I have even tried getting in the shower with him but he just got angry that I interrupted his "alone time"!

_Also SammieKeets what is your problem?

GC_WIFIE_1992 | F | SUBACCOUNT gocardinals_1981

_Well I will be honest, if he finds the shampoo bottles or whatever in the shower more appealing than you then there must be something you can do to step it up! He doesn't even remember when you last made love? Sounds like he is bored!

_Try to spice things up a bit. You can be a little forward, he is your husband, after all. Be the one to initiate instead of waiting for him. Get yourself looking nice and wait for him in bed ;) good luck!

WILD_FLR_22 | F | FORUM REGULAR

_omg wait so he did it with you and then he didn't even give you permission until you asked????? thats so rude......sorry to say but it really sounds like he doesn't care about you?????

SAMMIEKEETS | F | FORUM REGULAR

_i'm on my phone and i don't want to go back and forth on the caps keyboard but thanks for offering you sanctimonious crone :)

EMMA_L | F | FORUM REGULAR

_Well thank you everyone for the advice. I tried your approach, gc_wifie, and it went great at first...we made love for the first time in over a month! Hurrah!

_But...he "forgot" again...and this time he totally fell asleep. Well of course I woke him up and asked if he could say the magic words (OK I might have phrased it a little bit ruder) and he got mad that I woke him and said NO.

_I am so frustrated and disappointed. I started crying and he just went back to sleep. I tried to apologize and talk it out this morning but he is still angry and will barely speak to me. All he said is that I shouldn't "hold my breath" as in waiting for him to give me permission any time soon.

_I don't know what I am going to do now...

GOCARDINALS_1981 | M | FORUM SENIOR

_Yes, it is real. Very sad. I don't recommend watching it, I am sure the woman and her husband will thank us for not violating their privacy more than has been done already, and it is very upsetting.

HEY_PRESTO_X0 | F | SUBACCOUNT mr_macavee

VAMPIRES_DONT_SPARKLE | F | FORUM REGULAR

_What is the video?

GOCARDINALS_1981 | M | FORUM SENIOR

_The wife of a member of the Council was abducted by political activists. They videotaped themselves torturing her and posted it online with their ransom demands.

WILD_FLR_22 | F | FORUM REGULAR

_my friend said in the video there's like three different guys forcing themselves on her and they're also using some kind of sex toy on her and she's begging to you-know-what and crying :( :( :( :( cant they remotely deactivate the chip so she can at least......?????

HEY_PRESTO_X0 | F | SUBACCOUNT mr_macavee

_The toy is a vibrator. They are illegal here to prevent spiritual pollution, the kidnappers must have taken her out of the country or have access to black market goods.

TITLE: Strategies for struggling women?

SUBFORUM: Women's Discussion

=====

HEY_PRESTO_X0 | F | SUBACCOUNT mr_macavee

_I have seen a few posts recently from women who are struggling with being Kept for one reason or another...unmarried, widowed, or just not much alone-time with the husband, etc. Personally I have some trouble as my husband's job takes him on long trips...right now he is out of the country for a month. And no, he does not like to give permission over the phone.

_So I thought we could make this thread to exchange tips on how to handle less ideal circumstances, and still do our bests as wives, mothers, and citizens.

_Also I know there is a good reason for men to have access to this sub-forum, but I will ask that most replies here be from women, as I think that will just be more productive.

SAMMIEKEETS | F | FORUM REGULAR

_We all have problems. Pray about it, or see a counselor. You should not need "help" from other women to handle your "circumstances" unless you are a lesbo.

VAMPIRES_DONT_SPARKLE | F | FORUM REGULAR

_My Keeper is my dad, he hasn't given me permission once since I got the chip put in at 20. I am 22 now...so...

_My advice is just don't think about it. At all. Don't touch down there unless you have to, for hygiene and so on. Find stuff to do to keep yourself busy. When things get really hard, I make myself deals to stop thinking about "it"...like if I can focus on reading for fifteen minutes, then I count that as a win, and then I will try for another fifteen minutes, etc...eventually the urge to touch will pass (usually).

HEY_PRESTO_X0 | F | SUBACCOUNT mr_macavee

_Poor v_d_s! On the bright side, I bet you're really looking forward to getting married now! Your future husband will admire your spiritual purity I am sure.

EMMA_L | F | FORUM REGULAR

_It's all about compromise. I agree it helps to focus on other things, and to realize that we really just do not "need it" as much as men do, as much as it may feel that way sometimes.

GOCARDINALS_1981 | M | FORUM SENIOR

_The Council made this choice because sexual pleasure is a spiritual matter and, as we know from the Scripture, men are His chosen spiritual leaders. You have to trust that your husband (or father, etc.) is making the best choice for you, even when it's hard.

_Sammie may have expressed herself poorly, but I agree that prayer can help.

GC_WIFIE_1992 | F | SUBACCOUNT gocardinals_1981

_The Council did put out an advisory recently instructing men on this matter. He is just following Council wisdom.

VAMPIRES_DONT_SPARKLE | F | FORUM REGULAR

_The advisory went out while we were on our honeymoon. My husband showed it to me because I didn't believe him at first...he is coming up with a schedule now since we are no longer celebrating and he wants to be sure that he doesn't "spoil" me.

_Embarrassing question but I don't know where else to ask...and I don't know how to be sensitive about it so I will just come out and say it...lately my husband will only give me permission if I let him spank me first. And I don't even mean on my butt, I mean on my lady parts.

_He says it is called "positive conditioning" and it is allowed because he is my Keeper. Obviously I can only access the women's part of the Council site so it is all about my duties and I can't find anything about this. Is this really okay with the Council?!

HEY_PRESTO_X0 | F | SUBACCOUNT mr_macavee

_If you hate it so much then maybe it isn't worth it to get permission? Just don't let him do it and deal with the consequences?
