~ The Interpretation of Sounds ~

[twysted73]

Everytime I'd pop in I'd see the "Inorporating Sounds" thread thinking it might cover what I'm shortly about to.
Sadly, no. And so I'd wander back out cursing my lapse in memory.

FFwd: Going along the animalistic train of thought, (and I'm sure it's been covered in the past but who has time or the inclination to dig for it?) I wonder if any of you ever take notice of the particular sounds your submissive/Dominant/ P/pyl makes not just during your play, but also when out of scene and with you simply talking to them.

Do you notice speciffic sounds they make that let you know precicely (or roughly) what they are thinking and feeling at that moment? Do they unknowingly give themselves away?

They could be simply sitting in one place, thinking on something and they make a delightfully frustraited grunt or growl they they, themselves, may not even be aware of having made yet you listen intently and know they need your care.

I also encourage conversation concerning the in-scene and sexual play sounds as well of course.

But, basically, how well and how closely do you listen to and read your P/pyl's non-verbal expressions and sounds? Can you account for a situation where this attentiveness has helped you head off a potential problem where their silence would have otherwise damaged your connection?

I delight in listening to these and find myself far more attentive as a result of it.

Well, I notice a certain low frequency rumble, like a chest groan, when He's frustrated or expressing emotions to a particular issue being discussed. It has a life of it's own and there are different tones the sound takes on depending on what mood He's in or an inflection the sound is to create. It is extremely sexy in any case and I love to catch it when it rumbles forth.

I personally don't know if I have any sounds. I'd really like to know if I do, though. It would be nice to find out.

I thought the "Incorporating Sounds" thread was going to be a "Noises the P/pyl makes" topic also.

While it is a great avenue for discussion I can't really commment on this though as my effectiveness of communication would be lost without the audible - apparently I do make sounds.

Try anyway. Sound away!

I did too...Sir says he knows by my breathing when I am aroused or turned on and then when we are sceneing I do make noises...

I breath or sigh heavly he says.. and I whimper.... , I moan and whimper and Im kinda loud...


and as for him his noises are very clear I KNOW by his sounds how he is feeling, tired, mad, stressed, turned on.... devilish... everything..I just know him and I am glad I do know him... I am thankful he trusts me like that

 

[graceanne]

K sighs. But to tell the truth I'm quicker to pick up on body language and signs. I think it's cause my dad's family has so many hard of hearing people in it, sometimes a sign is all you get.

 

[VelvetDarkness]

Master is quite a growler. If I get too sammy in public all he has to do is emit a kind of caveman WTF? Automatically I know that any further pissing him off will result in issues when we get home.

During scenes, it varies. He'll concentrate on what he's/I'm doing and be mostly quiet up to a point. I'll know if he's pleased with what's happening or unimpressed before he ever says so.

I get quite vocal and fairly high pitched. It's weird because at the time I have no concept whatsoever of the sounds I'm making and afterwards he'll smirk at me and say something like 'enjoyed that did you?' I'm absolutely hopeless as keeping quiet though, I get into my slavespace and I'm simply not aware, so I have no control. That's not even an excuse, it just happens to be the way I'm wired. The way I see it, that was what gags were invented for anyway.

Master is able to distinguish where I'm at by the sounds I make quite well. Like a mother knows if her baby is hungry, tired or just wants a cuddle, he can read me very well. If I start to get too zoned out and past the point where I'm really aware of what's happening he'll spot that too and speak loudly and harshly to nudge me back, along with the odd faceslap.

If things are getting beyond my tolerance he can read that. My safeword is for medical reasons only. I do not get to set my own limits for things. He monitors me closely but I will take whatever he dishes out. He's never damaged me (permanently) yet.

 

[intothewoods]

Mine's a growler sometimes too. We jokingly refer to his sex drive as the beast - e.g., you woke up the beast, the beast is stirring, etc.

Well, here goes. This would be much easier if I knew how to spell the myriad of noises that I hear people make.

I find it amazing that in addition to the words that that are said, the inflection and emphasis within each sentence and the body language that you can sometimes observe, noises or sounds, little tells offered can indicate a thought.

It may be that the thought can be verbalised, or it may be a feeling, an emotion or image that plays across the mind that words cannot do justice to. I have noticed that these noises are sharper and louder, telling me the exact sentiment when the thought is shocking. When the thought was unexpected, like a ping to the heart, or a blow to the gut.... Like when someone really sees me, know things that I haven't told them or turns my mind from the direction it was heading & stops my thoughts, pausing to contemplate whatever it was that halted me in my tracks so much I either had a shap intake of break, a low moan or a whimper.

I know that I make noises in my day-to-day. I growl at my daughter. I sigh, sometimes in exasperation, sometimes in relaxation. I make a funny "ooh" or "aw" noise in sympathy, or if something especially sweet was said. There is the "uuuummmmm" which means I'm thinking and then the grunt and groans of bedtime and morning stretches. The gentle moans as I fell my body relax as I sink into the mattress.

Everybody has a tell. If you know them well enough, if you're close to them. It may be verbal, it may be body language, or a certain look. It can even be a mixture of these. (My daughter knows when I take a deep breath in, counting to five silently, my hands on my hips & "that look" that she had better stop whatever it is she's doing. I have so many tells that if you know me well I am like an open book.)

There are some whose mind process I know so well that even if I haven't heard that particular noise before I have an idea of what it means. I don't catalog these noises necessarily. I just know them, notice them and react to them. A primal growl that can mean either "watch out" or "that is so true", depending on the context, inflection & how deep it was. Or a "grunt" of frustration, generally directed atthemselves, but brought on by me really seeing them. And who can forget the noise of silence? When you know that they are either thinking, trying to decide which thought will come out on top, or sometimes teh silence is a result of them holding their breath ... you have literally taken their breath away. I can go on & on like this. I love the sounds people make, they show me how their mind works and tells me more about themselves than they owuld ever consciously disclose. they tell me when to back off, when I've been insensitive, when I've been insightful, when I've entertained... and all this I store away. It's a type of communication. And communication is the key to relationships.

And as to sexual sounds ... I know I really really can't spell those. But they exist. Sure, there's the panting, the moaning, the grunts... but it's the little noises ... the gentle "MMMM", or the wimpery "don't stop that" noise that I can't spell. Change this noise just slightly & you have the "please / begging noise". And my all time fav "Ooohhhh" that starts as a very breath grunt with an exhale and the noise continues as you empty you lungs in satisfaction ... to be followed by the "grunty mmm" that means "Thank-you, that was so good"...

I love all these sounds... so yeah, I notice them, and I make them. In day-to-day, in the bedroom. They can be good, or they can be bad.... but they all tell you something about the person making them.

 

[EmpressFi]

Both Malin and Master growl..but different ways... Malin growls or purrs when he's getting turned on.. he also gets this little breath caught in his throat when I tease his nipples and/or the nipple rings. He also does this near shout when he reaches orgasm

Master growls when he's being possessive, when he wants to reinforce ownership. Also there's a change in his breathing when he gets closer although his big give away isnt a sound it's that his thigh starts trembling.

I've been told I whimper when I'm first getting excited.. a whimper/moan that gets louder...


as both of my men know...

I'm a screamer

 

[TeachMeSir]

Master growls when he's being possessive, when he wants to reinforce ownership.

Oh, I forgot this noise!!!!

 

[EmpressFi]

I love that noise..

I love that sometimes I'll be telling him about something some other guy said and will get..
*growl* in the IM..and I know what sound he's making...

 

[VelvetDarkness]

Mine's a growler sometimes too. We jokingly refer to his sex drive as the beast - e.g., you woke up the beast, the beast is stirring, etc.

Ditto. Massages his manimal (do like that word, I'm going to use it stubbornly until somebody makes it official) domly ego too when I refer to him and/or his urges as 'the beast.'

Naturally I assert that it makes me 'beauty.'

 

[YourCaptor]

I love sounds, what do you call them? Interjections I think…

Anyway, sounds definitely give away thoughts, emotions, and feelings. However I don’t really read them to base my next action on, I just enjoy the knowing what she is feeling. Often I would push the buttons to emit some particularly favored sounds. I must admit though, the best are the spontaneous ones.

For example sometimes when everything was going perfect, the sub would fall into this trance of a heightened sense of touch. She would stop relying on her sight, her eyes would dilate and not be focused on anything, and she would rub her body against whatever was near and dear. The sounds she would make during one of these moments where incredible, pure desperation due to their not being enough touch to satisfy, like she couldn’t get enough and was rolling, rubbing, only to need more and more and more.

Another favorite, this little happy sound of comfort she would make when cuddling into my hug.

Good times

I have tried to explain this before. It's not restlessness, but more a need to feel every sensation on every part of my body. Thanks for helping me clarify my thought. And yes, it is accompanied by sounds!

 

[TeachMeSir]

Does that one have an upward inflection?

 

[YourCaptor]

This isn’t really a “sound”, but I think it fits the category.

In a tone of hurt, child like whining, and love, “You’re hurting me”, with tears and pain in her eyes, but visibly forcing herself to hold still so that I can take my pleasure.

Or any whimper, those are hot. Especially a whimpered cry after I'm all done with her.

You know I have been thinking about the subject of reacting to this sounds, and I think I do it subconsciously. Whenever I hear a submissive sort of sound I just want to kiss and squeeze. Horny sound has me going even harder, and crying makes me went to hurt even slower.

Agreed!!! I was sitting here reading this and smiling at my own reactions.
Good god I'm going to have one helluva time.

This is a very eloquent description of a type of subspace. The sub almosts ceases to exist as a sentient being and becomes something animal, feral, that (almost) mutely responds to touch and sensation without consciously assimilating the source or nature of it.

I make all manner of sounds at these times but I couldn't tell you what they are. My consciousness is out to lunch.

Don't you just love it when your sonssciousness is out to lunch though?

** sounds I can't spell **

Is there anything more instinctual than the reaction to sounds? It starts from the moment we are born and continues until the day we die.

As I've said in another thread, I'm a big fan of the growls. All growls are not the same. There is the growl of frustration. The growl of lust. The growl that signals he is fighting his urges. And the best one of all, the growl when he gives in to those urges. Each are very distinct.

There are many other noises that I've been aware of as well. The sound that is made at a soft touch. The sound of an exhale when he is firmly wrapped inside and surrounded by warmth. The various grunts and groans produced in the throes of intense sex. The deep sigh of contentment.

As far as my own sounds, I'm only aware of those that have been pointed out to me. "Cuddle noises" (his words not mine) when snuggling into his arms. A rumble in my throat (a bit softer than a growl) when I become playfully excited. Something akin to purring when hands are moving across my body. A sharp intake of breath when I'm first entered. Beyond that the only other awareness of my sounds comes after the fact, when I realize just how hard and loud I screamed by the hoarseness of my voice or the ache in my throat.

Actually it starts before we are born. Mommys heart beat and voice . As well as that annoying laud ass ultrasound .

Well, and that of mom and dad getting it on. But...let's go ahead and pass that part by as fast as we can, shall we?

 

[madetotakeit]

Very true, but I was thinking more along the lines of the point where it's possible to create your own sounds in response as well. The benefits of sounds before birth have long been proven. It just shows how important sounds can be through out life.

Well, and that of mom and dad getting it on. But...let's go ahead and pass that part by as fast as we can, shall we?

Had to go there didn't you? I'm still trying to ban from my brain the memory of my mom showing me the boustier teddies she bought to celebrate my sister and I moving out. I don't want to think about what happened while she was pregnant with me.
