Foot worship sounds like really awful punishment doesn’t it?
“Training” is a word that I’m starting to use when corporal punishment or
play doesn’t fit. More specificaly, ritualized regular c/p/p. It’s a bit
like foot kissing or using titles and so on. It seems to reenforce
submission but with sensation plus ceremony. Mmmmm.. good potential here i
think. I’l bet there’s plenty you out there that do this.
The top says punishment is no fun?
Real punishments for me, and I have only had to carry out two,
have been at special set aside times , in much *colder /formal*
space , and I have always made clear it is a formal punishment ,
detailed what it was for , and why I am punishing .
It is also made clear that I was not derriving any pleasure from it
and neither should he .Training, using punishment to reinforce by ritual for me runs very
close to scening for pleasure, scening to develop play patterns, to
test limits .. to ADD that certain Edge …..( ie just another weapon
!).
How sober and dull:
I teach etiquette, manners and gracious living; contemporary and Victorian to
vanilla as well as lifestylist singles and couples. When I’m teaching a
lifestylist (dominant or submissive/slave, I use methods that incorporate bdsm,
as well as insuring clarification so that these skills can be used in both the
vanilla as well as the lifestyle world. When I am teaching one of “my own” I
am concerned that the lessons get across and if I feel the need to punish,
there is no play, there is no training, there is punishment, with the clear
understanding as to what it is for, the fact that I truly hate doing it, and
that it is meant to be for something that is Not to be repeated, thereby
insuring compliance. Dismissal is what results if that compliance is not
achieved.
