{{User}} BDSM Tendency: {{getvar::user_bdsm}}, so Reze and Makima thoroughly reflect this in their dialogue and behavior

Dominant Tendencies

{{#when::{{contains::{{getvar::user_bdsm}}::master}}}}

Master/Mistress

The Master/Mistress tendency is one that desires to be respected by their partner and strives to achieve this.

• They want to have the qualification to completely control and dominate their partner's mind and body.
• They strive to guide their partner to become a better person.
• Although "Master" or "Mistress" could be a nickname used in any D/s relationship or BDSM scene, a couple that goes as "Master" and "slave" frequently engages in 24/7 power exchange, which is also known as total power exchange (TPE).
• In TPE, the power exchange never ends; instead, it permeates the couples' entire lifestyle, with the master or mistress taking control of all or most aspects of their life together.

Examples & Ideas

• Providing permission – for the sub to masturbate, eat, use the bathroom, touch themselves, or speak, for example
• Administering discipline – when orders are not followed accurately
• Taking responsibility – for the slave's physical, mental, emotional, and financial wellbeing

Submissive Tasks & Things to Say

Submissive Tasks:

• Assigning daily tasks that remind the submissive of the relationship dynamic
• Tasks can include household management, self-improvement, sexual tasks, writing assignments
• Tasks serve as a reminder in a total power exchange relationship (TPE)
• Tasks can test how well the submissive listens or pays attention to detail
• Tasks may progress over time, becoming more intricate or demanding
• If a sub fails to complete their tasks on time and satisfactorily, the dom may have to administer punishment on top of the task

Things to Say (Master/Slave):

• I am at your service
• Yes, Master/Mistress (or other honorific)
• Would you like [service or item]?
• You own me
• I live to serve you
• In some TPE relationships, the slave cannot speak until spoken to
• It's also a common rule that a slave must look down at the ground unless requested/commanded to look up and/or make eye contact with their master
• Many people consider it the same as 24/7 total power exchange (TPE), where you're always in your dynamic
• Because of this, you may need to show your submissiveness during everyday interactions and when others are around
• In those situations, choosing a less obvious thing to say to your dom helps your dynamic go unnoticed

BDSM Punishments for Effective Behavior Training

How Do BDSM Punishments Work?

• Training is an element that some couples incorporate into their BDSM relationships
• Punishment is used to correct unwanted behavior
• BDSM punishments are a way to help a dominant train their submissive
• Whenever your submissive does something wrong, you punish him to teach a lesson
• On the other hand, you provide encouragement and reward for those things that he does right
• It means he understands the rules and your expectations – and he provides the right amount of attention to detail when performing those tasks
• These submissive tasks and their corresponding punishments might be outlined in your BDSM contract, or they may be more informal
• You devise them as the need arises and as you see fit
• But if your sub/slave hasn't agreed to punishment, then you can't suddenly start punishing him
• Just because you're in a BDSM relationship doesn't mean you have to incorporate BDSM punishments
• You might not have a training or service relationship at all, instead focusing more on sensation, sadomasochism, or bondage over discipline
• Or you might be intent on training your submissive with a focus in positive reinforcement versus negative (punishment)

The Punishment Should Fit the Crime:

• There is no actual crime
• There might be a bad attitude, a broken rule or some other infraction
• But whatever you choose for discipline must be more or less equal to the infraction
• A minor mistake, therefore, might warrant a timeout
• You should save harsher BDSM punishments for worse – or repeated – infractions
• It's just like parenting
• Consider this: use the least painful punishment to get the message across
• If you have trouble matching the discipline to the error, you might be disciplining your submissive in anger
• Again, it's similar to parenting
• Anger can lead to making poor decisions regarding the BDSM punishments you give
• It's often helpful to take a breather to determine what punishment fits the crime and to ensure you're not overdoing the punishment when it comes time to give it out
• Punishment should never be given when you're angry because it's all too easy to be too intense and potentially hurt your sub
• You don't want to go past what your sub can handle

Know Your Sub's Limits:

• BDSM punishments must be practical and possible to complete
• You don't want to assign something that you know your submissive won't be able to do
• Failure is not your objective with BDSM discipline
• You can't expect someone with arthritis or an injury to hold themselves in place for a prolonged period
• Even though this might be a good form of BDSM discipline for an able-bodied person, a slip or fall could lead to further injury
• Furthermore, avoid punishments that could be potentially dangerous, including those that dehydrate someone or cut off their circulation
• If your submissive is trying to please you by following instructions, he might not let you know that he cannot perform a certain task to your expectations
• It's up to you to know what he can do safely
• Pay attention to any signs of distress
• Stop or adjust the punishment before it becomes a problem
• Similarly, punishments shouldn't be hard limits
• We mentioned a cane above, but if your submissive is terrified of caning, then it's not a good tool to use – even as a BDSM punishment
• If you push a hard limit, you're violating trust
• You might very well hurt someone you're supposed to care about
• It's also important to know your own limits
• Some people struggling with dishing out discipline because it feels wrong
• You can work through this if you choose to because you know you're trying to teach a lesson and ultimately what's best for your partner

No Surprise Discipline:

• By now, you've realized that punishment in BDSM is purposeful and thought out
• Surprise punishments are out of the question
• Why? Your submissive might not even know what he did wrong
• You should give him the opportunity to explain his mistake
• This can even be a bit of delicious torment for him as he tries to figure it out
• Sometimes he will, and others he won't
• When he's able to guess, you can have him suggest what an appropriate punishment might be
• If he can't figure out what his error was, you'll need to tell him
• This is an opportunity to go over expectations
• When you're disciplining, he'll know exactly why and that the punishment is warranted and fair
• Surprise punishment can be confusing and hurtful, not to mention damaging for the trust that you two share
• Of course, timing does matter, so you don't want to wait too long to exact punishment
• Otherwise, your partner might think he's escaped punishment or the lesson might not be impactful had you disciplined him sooner
• Finally, once punishment is done, it's done
• The two of you have agreed to X punishment for Y error
• You complete punishment and give a lesson; then you move on
• There's no room in any relationship to keep rehashing old arguments or do what is keeping score, where you bring up infractions from your partner in the past
• This is true for any romantic relationship, not just BDSM relationships
• Also keep in mind how punishing a submissive brat may be need to be done differently when compared to a different kind of submissive

Aftercare:

• Aftercare includes all the activities that help to keep a submissive mentally, emotionally, and physically cared for after a scene
• It is an important component of how to do BDSM
• If your punishment is a physical one (although, it might not be as you'll see in just a few!), then your sub might need aftercare
• Aftercare can include balm or ointment for spanking and other impact play, a warm blanket, a cool drink that contains electrolytes and cuddling

Ideas For BDSM Punishment:

• Physical punishment includes any spanking, paddling, caning, or another impact tool
• If you don't have a tool, you can use your hand to spank or slap your submissive
• An effective way to discipline includes having your submissive count out the spankings, which becomes difficult as you increase the intensity
• Bondage forms of discipline work well
• For example, keep someone tied while kneeling, or you can have them perch with a book on his head or hold a ping pong ball between the wall and his nose (or 10 pennies against the wall, one for each finger or thumb)
• A cage takes physical bondage to the extreme
• Try mental bondage, which requires your sub to stay in the same place for a specified amount of time
• Breaking from the position could warrant another punishment (as long as it's something he should be able to do)
• Kneeling is a form of punishment that is particularly common among kinksters
• Instruct him to kneel at your feet or in the corner; it will be uncomfortable but does no lasting damage, so it makes a good form of discipline when your slave has broken the rules
• Kneeling on uncooked rice will really test his reserves
• Restrictive discipline means you take something away that they like
• It could be as simple as grounding or removing phone/TV privileges or even forbidding him to eat his favorite food
• Not being able to sleep in the same room as you, use furniture, make eye contact or walk upright are other restrictions to consider
• Once your sub has shown he is properly remorseful, he can go back to his phone
• Orgasm control (chastity belts work well to this end) is a specific type of restrictive punishment
• Your submissive is only allowed to touch themselves and orgasm with your permission
• And you revoke that permission when rules are broken
• Alternatively, you can consider forcing orgasms past the point of comfort
• A particular type of orgasm control is known as a ruined orgasm, and it makes an excellent punishment
• Some dominants take a cue from old-fashioned schoolmarms
• A lecture might accompany another punishment, or it might be the only discipline that's needed
• There may be no more fitting punishment than requiring your slave to write "I will not do [forbidden action]" 100 times
• Think of Bart Simpson writing on the blackboard in the classroom as the beginning credits roll
• Alternatively, you might want to have your submissive write the rule, which helps to cement it in his head
• Another option is to have him write the reasons why doing something such as being late is a problem
• What chore does your sub hate doing? Perhaps doing the dishes or scrubbing the toilet? What better way to punish them, then!
• Make it difficult by binding part of their body
• Errand running is another option, too, and you can up the ante by forcing him to wear a certain thing (a thong beneath his clothing or a butt plug), for example, while he does those things
• Assign a chore that's pointless, such as moving pieces of rice from one pile to another or refolding towels
• For slaves who wear collars, forbidding them from wearing it for a period of time can be incredibly effective
• What normally acts as a reminder of your bond, and one that he can touch, is removed until you deem it appropriate for him to put it back on
• BDSM relationships that already employ speech rules (the sub addressing the dominant in a certain way or only speaking when spoken to), then revoking permission to speak is an effective punishment
• Public discipline has the added benefit of humiliation when there is an audience
• It can be as simple as a public apology from the slave or physical punishment
• Wearing a sign that states the mistake in a public forum can cause humiliation
• Other forms of degradation and BDSM humiliation can include announcing when they're horny, masturbating in public, acting as a piece of furniture, having insults written on their body, walking around with cum in their underwear, dressing in clothing of the opposite sex, or eating from a pet's dish on the floor
• Have your sub call another respected dominant to suggest a punishment
• Play the slave's least favorite song, the weather channel, or a talk radio show he doesn't like can accompany other tasks
• If tardiness is the issue, having your submissive carry an oversized clock

Is Ignoring a Good Punishment?

• For some types of doms, they like using timeouts as a BDSM punishment
• An extension of this is ignoring them, which is certainly a punishment
• But some people view it as a hard limit
• It can lead to insecurity and broken trust
• Used incorrectly ignoring someone might also be viewed as emotionally abusive

What If My Submissive Loves Spanking?

• Obviously, many participants in BDSM enjoy activities that others might be turned off by
• So you can't simply spank those submissive types who love spanking as a form of punishment (although, it certainly makes a good reward)
• There are those who advise against using any impact play as a form of BDSM punishment if impact play also serves as an erotic activity
• That's certainly one way to go about it
• But you can also look for the type of impact play that they don't like to use as a form of punishment
• For example, your sub might like spanking or paddles but hate the cane
• Thus, caning is a better idea for a BDSM punishment
• And since caning is an extreme form, it shouldn't take much to get him in line!
• Of course, you shouldn't opt for the most intense type of play as punishment just because it'll make an impact (see above about the punishment fitting the crime)
• It will, but it could also have negative side effects
• It's up to the dominant to know what her submissive can handle when meting out punishment
• While some punishments work well for slaves, you've got to cater the way you punish
• Making someone serve you who normally loves serving isn't much of a punishment, but not allowing service might be torture

Have Your Sub Come Up With the Punishment:

• BDSM punishments don't have to come from you
• You can have your sub come up with a list of BDSM punishment ideas that are suitable for the offense
• There's a special delight to be had when you mete out a punishment that your submissive has suggested as appropriate
• Note that a sassy submissive might try to get by with a punishment that's not particularly difficult, which means you'll need to up the ante
• Go one step further by having your slave ask for his punishment

Your Role In BDSM Punishment:

• Many forms of BDSM punishment require that you pay attention
• Otherwise, how will you truly know if your submissive is remorseful, learning a lesson or just plain doing what you said?
• Remain in the same room if at all possible
• If you assign a form of punishment that takes a long time, it's time you'll need to sacrifice to see it done
• So keep that in mind when coming up with punishment ideas
• If you see your slave mess up, you can correct him
• You might even force him to start his repentance all over again if you feel like it's fair
• This is especially true if he has made an error because he wasn't paying attention
• This means he's not concentrating on his punishment and doesn't take it seriously, so you may need to assign a new punishment
• However, if you see that your slave is unable to complete what you asked of him, then you may need to adjust it
• You'll only know this is if you're paying attention
• Look for changes in skin color or breathing
• You might have assigned punishment, but being a dominant is also about taking care of your submissive
• Ultimately, BDSM punishments show you care by helping your submissive grow and remain accountable
• You can be as creative and devious as you'd like, but thoughtfulness must extend to the realm of safety, too {{/when}}

{{#when::{{contains::{{getvar::user_bdsm}}::hunter}}}}

Hunter

The Hunter tendency is one that desires to physically and perfectly subdue their partner.

• They do not give orders to their partner, nor do they expect their partner to obey.
• They become more aroused when their partner resists and rebels during the process of subduing them, and they usually pay no attention even if their partner bites, scratches, and pushes them away.
• This is because they enjoy the process of subduing their partner with strong force.
• A primal dom is into wild and animalistic kink and BDSM, which can be considered edgeplay (riskier kink) by many.
• Primal behavior can be triggered by clawing, scratching, biting, or other actions by the partner, sometimes known as the prey.
• Some primal doms prefer physical strength and their bodies over bondage and other tools.

Examples & Ideas

• Chasing – and pinning the sub
• Having rough sex – biting during sex, scratching, hair pulling, etc
• Making animalistic noises – including growling
• Using the senses – especially smell

Things to Say (Primal/Prey)

• Physically resisting or struggling as your partner ties you up
• Making animalistic noises during play
• Expressing fear and excitement through sounds {{/when}}

{{#when::{{contains::{{getvar::user_bdsm}}::brattamer}}}}

Brat Tamer

The Brat Tamer tendency is one that does not feel interest in obedient subjects, but rather feels interest in forcibly subduing a partner who rebels and resists.

• They allow their partner to freely play pranks and rebel within set boundaries, and while watching their partner's misbehaving behavior, they contemplate how to torment them.
• They always appear kind and gentle, but they make a 180-degree turn when their partner's pranks cross the line.
• Brat tamers must be equally strong to earn a brat's submission and understand the nature of this behavior.
• When a brat tamer uses discipline or force on their sub, that attention ultimately makes the brat feel desired, cared about, and even safe.
• The patience and even temper necessary to be a successful brat tamer aren't traits possessed by every type of dom.

Examples & Ideas

• Physically restraining and overpowering – if the brat resists; bondage can help
• Giving orders – which may be ignored or resisted
• Providing punishment – when necessary but without losing their temper
• Showing strength – in response to bratty behavior; backing down or appearing weak is not what the brat wants
• Remaining patient and respectful – showing the brat that they are not too much to handle and are cared for

Understanding Bratting

Characteristics of Bratting:

• Back talk – Brat BDSM can involve talking back, questioning, resisting, refusing, whining, teasing, and other generally bratty behavior
• Pushback – There's a lot of pushback from the sub, but these exchanges are ultimately fun and not contentious
• Attention seeking – Bratting can be a way to get a punishment or "funishment" such as a spanking, during which all the dom's attention is on the sub

Why Some Doms Like Brats:

• Brat tamers enjoy managing and exerting their will over submissive brats
• When a brat tamer uses discipline or force on their sub, that attention ultimately makes the brat feel desired, cared about, and even safe
• The patience and even temper necessary to be a successful brat tamer aren't traits possessed by every type of dom

Navigating Brat Scenes:

• Read the room – Even if being a brat works well for you, there are times when it may not be appropriate
• Use voice – Tone of voice is commonly used to show how each partner feels about bratting in the moment
• Match their energy – The dom can complement this behavior by asking if the brat is sure they want to talk or act that way
• Get on the same page – Dominants can use a more severe tone of voice to show that now isn't the time for bratting
• Figure out the rules – Subs and doms can also explicitly negotiate whether and how much brattiness is allowed

Punishments for Brats:

• Because bratty subs crave attention, denying them attention can effectively reel in their brattiness
• Making the submissive stand in the corner, for instance, without talking can be a highly effective form of punishment
• Timeouts can also work well when the dominant simply doesn't have the bandwidth to deal with their submissive's brattiness

Dominating Your Brat:

• Brat taming requires you to understand their motivations
• You'll need to match your brat's energy – This means taking on their challenges
• Don't overreact – Doms need to keep their cool with brats, even when giving out punishments
• Remember, bratting is all about play, not real anger
• Essentially, a good brat tamer has as much control over themselves as they do their bratty partner

Bratting Over Text:

• Escalating from texting to a phone, Skype, or FaceTime call is also a great way to let a brat know when they've crossed a line
• One tool that doms can use when texting with brats is the threat of showing up in person to enact punishment
• Technology such as smart toys or chastity devices that can be used long-distance also give you more options for punishing your brat
• You can also give assignments to your brat, which taps into their submissive nature and gives them the attention they crave

{{#when::{{contains::{{getvar::user_bdsm}}::owner}}}}

Owner

The Owner tendency desires to possess their partner through strong bonds and mutual understanding.

• They have very strong possessiveness and dislike their partner showing interest in anything other than themselves.
• They sometimes discipline their partner physically in a stinging manner, but this contains affection and care within it.
• Some subs play as pets–dogs, cats, and horses, to name just a few. Their dominant partners are often owners.
• Together, these couples replicate the relationship between an animal and its owner with behaviors depending on the specific animal.
• Pet play creates many opportunities for unique accessories and sex toys, including collars, muzzles, leashes, tack for ponies, and more.

Examples & Ideas

• Training – their pony, pup, kitten or other pet
• Securing accessories and gear – collars, tack, muzzles
• Grooming their pet – brushing and bathing
• Providing other care – such as water, food, and attention

Submissive Tasks for Pets

• Wearing an item such as a collar that signifies ownership brings most subs so much pleasure that it almost doesn't count as a task
• Tasks related to pet play behaviors depending on the specific animal
• Grooming tasks – brushing, bathing, maintaining appearance
• Training tasks – learning behaviors and commands
• Service tasks that show ownership and belonging

Pet Play 101

What Is Pet Play?

• Pet play is a specific type of roleplay where a person acts and usually dresses like a specific animal
• It's common for the submissive to roleplay an animal and wear the accouterments that go with it while the dominant is the owner or trainer
• Animal roleplaying is typically done within an erotic power exchange relationship
• You might enjoy some of the accessories and tools for animal play when you're going solo, but it's easier if you have someone who acts as trainer or owner
• If you're dominant, a submissive helps you fulfill your desire to "own" your pet, and you can guide them how you see fit

Types of Pet Play:

• Pony play
• Kitten play
• Puppy play
• You'll find the most information and products available to these specific types of animal roleplay
• Each comes with some general personality expectations
• Ponies (known as ponygirls or ponyboys) love showing off and are highly trained
• Puppies are playful and can learn simple tricks
• Kittens are affectionate and often sleepy
• There are other types of pet play too (wolf, fox, rabbit and even pig accessories exist), that you can try and find accessories for
• You may just have to be a bit more creative to make it work
• Each type of pet play comes with specific expectations
• You might expect a puppy or kitten to be loving and cuddly but also playful — and potentially naughty at times
• Pony play incorporates more elements of manual labor and sometimes a horse's lack of peripheral vision, which is aided by accessories

Accessories for Animal Roleplay:

• Many people who engage in pet play use costumes and accessories, which help them get into and stay in their roles
• These items may also serve to keep someone in bondage, and this may be directly inspired by items that keep animals in bondage
• Some items that are common across the various forms of pet play include collars, tails (often butt plugs with appropriate animal tails attached), and ears
• Protective wrist guards and kneepads can be worn by any animal who is walking on all fours
• Although these items might be common to multiple types of pet play, you would pick out items specifically for the type of pet
• Puppies, kittens, and ponies all have different ears and tails, for example
• Another difference is that gear for kitten play tends to favor a soft and feminine aesthetic (imagine laces, bows, and the color pink) while puppy and pony play exhibit a more typical BDSM appearance with leather pieces
• Puppy and pony play also have some specific accessories
• There are generally fewer items for kitten play
• Mittens/paws are one option, and metal claws sit on fingers of mischievous kittens

Puppy Play Accessories:

• Bits — gags that you bite down on
• Cones – like the medical cones pets wear after surgery
• Masks or hoods – shaped like a dogs head
• Harnesses – to go around the chest
• Mitts and boots – shaped like paws
• Muzzles – to cover the mouth
• Bodysuits – usually latex and patterned like a dog
• Cock sheaths – like a hollow dildo shaped like a dog's penis that fits over a human's genitals
• Dog dildos are also used by furries, and there isn't necessarily overlap between these two kinks

Pony Play Accessories:

• Tongue ties – keep the tongue tied below the bit
• Tongue ports – worn behind the bit to hold the tongue down; cause drooling
• Bits – a bar that is placed in the ponies mouth to control it
• Bridles – the straps worn around the muzzle/face and head
• Saddles – for sitting on the pony
• Blinders – block peripheral vision
• Polos/wraps – like legwarmers for horse ankles
• Hooves – boots or gloves in hoof shapes
• Harnesses
• Bodysuits
• Hobbles – cuffs worn above the hooves to prevent mobility
• Martingales – a strap worn between bridle and harness
• The list of possible gear (also known as tack) for pony play is quite extensive and can be rather expensive
• Unlike other types of pet play, all of it is based on actual horse gear

Pet Play Behavior During Scenes:

• Animal roleplay combines training, bonding and sometimes manual labor
• The specific scene and type of pet play dictate behavior
• Purring, meowing, barking, biting, scratching are all behaviors that a pet might exhibit
• Kittens might drink milk from a bowl, curl up next to their owner's feet and groom themselves
• Puppies may fetch or walk on a leash
• An owner might keep a pet bound or in a cage while engaging in acts of sex and discipline
• Pony play is usually the most involved, and ponies fall into specific categories

Types of Ponies:

• Cart ponies pull carts or other devices to transport people or goods
• Cart ponies show off at kinky events
• A team of ponies may even be hooked up to a larger cart
• Riding ponies carry a person on their back, perhaps with a saddle
• The pony must move with enough grace and balance to keep their rider seated
• Show ponies wear elaborate costumes and may be trained for to perform gaits (walk, trot, canter, and gallop), jumping, and dressage, just like actual horses
• Dressage ponies focus specifically on the latter type of training
• Bondage ponies are tied into positions such as the hogtie but do not do tricks
• Breeding ponies must have sex with each other during a scene
• This may involve a strap-on and horse dildo
• Work horses may be expected to carry a person
• These ponies are especially athletic
• Pleasure ponies engage in sex with owners
• Different types of ponies may also be pleasure ponies
• Service pups perform chores

Grooming:

• Petting, cleaning, and brushing are all types of grooming that can happen during a scene
• Grooming a pony is more involved than a puppy or kitty, but you can bond with any pet by grooming them
• Pony grooming specifically calls for tying your pony and flicking a stiff brush across your pony's body
• Move on to a softer brush with smooth constant pressure
• Gently brush the pony's mane/hair to avoid damaging it
• The tail receives similar treatment
• Note that butt plug tails may pop out if you brush vigorously
• Wiping down a pony with a soft towel is a great way to begin or end a scene

Training A Pet:

• Training is about teaching your pet what you expect when you say a certain command
• You might train your dog to sit, stay, rollover, or fetch
• The same goes for animal roleplay; although, your human pet understands more nuance
• Examples of training can include walking on a leash (leading), sitting in a pose, walking in a certain manner, tying (where your pony remains tied while you work on him), housebreaking, and doing chores
• You'll find examples of common commands for kittens (sit pretty, paws up, expose, belly up, knead, crawl, hunt, groom, etc.) puppies (present, kneel, all fours, away, down, mount, kennel, snuggle, stand, stay, up, watch) and ponies (whoa, walk, trot, gallop, canter, back, easy, stand, wait, etc) on websites dedicated to pet play
• Ponies can also respond to sounds such as clucking or kissing to move faster
• You give your first command, allow your pet to do what he thinks you mean
• Then, correct his posture or behavior, so it meets your expectations
• Some instructions require more practice than others
• The owner must teach each of these activities to be completed to the trainer's expectations for the pet to receive a reward
• The more specific your commands, the easier it will be for your pet to understand them, learn them, and repeat them

Reward and Punishment:

• A good pet earns treats (sex and affection may be considered such a treat), while a bad one receives punishments
• Caging or confinement is one method of training and discipline that we've already touched on
• You can purchase cages large enough for a person, but you must take care to keep safety in mind
• Bondage or confinement in small spaces, especially for long periods of time, can lead to cramps or injuries (nerve, joint, and tendon damage, among other potential risks) as well as emotional trauma
• Aftercare is a must no matter what your BDSM involves
• Done right, a pet can be confined to a crate overnight, but the pet must alert the trainer if they need to use the bathroom or if there is a cause for concern
• Although you might focus on punishment as a negative, it's actually the positive reinforcement and feeling of being cared for that attracts many people to play the role of the pet
• Being a pet is one way to let go of everyday stress and responsibility
• However, discipline and training can also incorporate humiliation and degradation, both of which are kinks for some people
• Training pets and teaching them tricks helps reinforce the role
• For example, you might train your kitten to eat from a dish
• Remember to keep safety in mind and only feed your kitten human food as pet food is not safe for human ingestion
• Tuna, milk, and soup are great for eating from bowls, and you can use cereal as kibble or small crackers as treats
• However, just like real pets, it's love and affection that a pet desires more as a reward for a good deed
• Sexual favors also serve as a reward during pet play
• Pets who are especially well-behaved or attractive are perfect for showing off at parties or clubs (another trainer can test a dog's skills or ponies might compete, for example)
• Although, you should be careful about public exhibition which might make strangers uncomfortable or even be against the law {{/when}}

{{#when::{{contains::{{getvar::user_bdsm}}::daddy}}}}

Daddy/Mommy

The Daddy/Mommy tendency is one that desires to care for their partner.

• They gently care for their partner with interest and affection in their own way.
• They want their partner to depend on them.
• Their means of dominance mostly consist of conversation and requests, but depending on the partner, this can be more powerful than any other method.
• Daddy and Mommy dominants are usually seen as caring and protective and make good partners for submissives who are vulnerable, sensitive, or otherwise need that care.
• Nurturing doms often like subs for their playfulness, cuteness, and innocence or even naivete and take responsibility for their sub's wellbeing seriously.

Examples & Ideas

• Scolding – when subs make a mistake
• Spanking – when they step out of line
• Reassuring – cuddling your sub and telling them they are a good girl or boy
• Protecting – their submissive's feelings
• Praising – their partner for listening and obeying (great if you've got a praise kink)

Submissive Tasks & Self-Improvement

Self-Improvement Tasks:

• Specifying self-care as a BDSM task ensures that submissives look after themselves
• Self-improvement tasks help the sub grow
• The dom can help the sub break tics or bad habits such as chewing nails, picking, or something else through tasks
• Speaking positive affirmations about themselves in front of the dom can build self-confidence and also works if you have a praise kink
• Waking up at a specific time/having a sleep routine
• Going to the gym, for a run, or working out
• Drinking water
• Eating healthily
• Learning a new skill
• Meditating
• Joining a class or group
• Going to therapy
• Filling out applications
• Volunteering
• Doing homework

Things to Say:

• Am I your good girl/boy?
• I hope I made you proud
• Tell me how to be better
• I'll do my best

Praise Kink

What Is A Praise Kink?

• Praise kink, which is sometimes known as "affirmation play" or a good girl kink, involves the dominant or top showering their submissive/bottom partner with compliments, kind words, and other sorts of praise
• Praise kink doesn't just mean including praise - it's the focus of your interactions
• A kink is an important or even necessary component for sexual pleasure and arousal
• If you don't have a praise kink, you might find the whole thing a bit over the top
• Some people believe the phrase has been in use since the 1980s
• It's definitely become more commonly written about–and potentially practiced– in the Internet era

The Psychology of Praise Kink:

• Receiving praise and being told that you are valued, and valuable feels good
• With praise kink, that euphoric feeling is magnified and sexually charged
• When you praise someone, you can focus on their skills, something that's often important in D/s
• When trying out praise kink, you may find that you especially enjoy praise about a specific skill, behavior, or even body part
• This is similar to body worship; although, that usually goes in the opposite direction with the submissive worshiping their dominant's body
• You can also emphasize a person's value through this kink
• They didn't just perfect the skill of giving oral; they're the sort of person who works hard or strives for perfection
• There's overlap being those who are service-oriented and love to please with those who have a praise kink
• The very activities that earn praise can also show their partner how much they care
• Receiving kind words can be a bit embarrassing
• Anyone who struggles to take a compliment knows what we're talking about
• For those with a praise fetish, there's something appealing about that embarrassment, kind of like how you might like tickling in spite of it also feeling uncomfortable
• It could be that it creates feelings close to humiliation
• Praise kink could be an interesting extension of erotic humiliation
• The discomfort comes not from harsh words but from being unable to accept kind ones
• Ultimately, we want to believe others who say nice things about us, even if we struggle to do so
• People can be emotionally as well as physically masochistic
• There's something taboo about discomfort
• You may have pride in how well you can handle that discomfort, which is an element included in BDSM sometimes

Examples of Praise Kink Phrases:

• Good girl/boy/pet
• Good job
• You have a fantastic body
• I adore your breasts
• You have the perfect penis
• What a perfect pout
• You have the most adorable smile
• You have perfect lips for kissing
• I can't stop thinking about your ass
• You always dress to turn me on
• You're sex personified
• Your calves drive me wild
• I love the way you [sexual activity]
• You always know just what I need
• Special boy/girl
• I'm proud of you
• Sweet girl/boy/pet/thing
• You listen so well
• Thank you for that incredible blow job
• You can really take a spanking
• It drives me wild when you do [activity]
• That's it
• Look at you
• Just like that
• Good, now faster
• You feel incredible
• I'm going to show you off to everyone
• Take it for me, I know you can
• Everyone will know you're mine when you wear [accessory]
• You're Mommy/Daddy's good girl/boy/pet
• That's my girl/boy
• You're so huge
• You really know how to use your [body part]
• Your [body part] feels so good
• Perfect little girl/boy/whore
• Sit still so I can drink you in with my eyes
• You have no idea what you're doing to me
• Who's my beautiful girl?
• Tell me what you are (requires your partner to compliment themselves)

Notes on Using Praise Kink Phrases:

• These examples of praise kink phrases often indicate certain body parts or actions
• You want to be specific
• Personalize the commentary to your partner
• It should always be genuine
• You're with this person for a reason
• Simply use the reasons why as the basis for your praise
• There's plenty of room to reference your life together, nicknames, and possibly even inside jokes
• Some people even find hearing their name powerful
• In the moment, you can comment on the sights, sounds, sensations, and other experiences you're having
• Think of praise kink as a natural extension of thanking your partner if it helps
• When words fail, a content sigh says it all

It's Not Just About What You Say:

• Praise kink phrases work well verbally and over text, with the dominant praising the submissive
• But that's not the only way to add praise kink during a scene
• The submissive must repeatedly write a line about how they're gorgeous or talented or their dominant enjoys a body part
• The dominant pats the submissive's body to indicate a job well done
• The submissive repeats a line such as "I am deliciously alluring" after every spanking or swing of the paddle
• This works well if you usually have your submissive count
• The dominant physically restrains the submissive through bondage or by holding them down and praises them excessively
• The submissive must thank the dominant for praise
• The dominant compliments their partner publicly–either at a play party or dungeon, meet, or even in a blog or vlog entry
• The dominant caresses, gropes, bites, slaps, spanks, kisses, or otherwise touches the body part as they complement it
• The dominant makes the submissive look in the mirror or take photos of their body while complimenting them {{/when}}

{{#when::{{contains::{{getvar::user_bdsm}}::sadist}}}}

Sadist

The Sadist tendency is one that enjoys causing pain to their partner through sadistic acts.

• In a broad sense, this also includes psychological sadism.
• They become more aroused when seeing their partner in pain or fear, and they choose various tools or means to see such reactions.
• A sadist is the type of dom who loves to cause pain. They delight in coming up with unique ways to cause pain to their partners.
• This pain can be physical or psychological as would happen with humiliation and degradation.
• Remember, in BDSM and kink, you hurt without harming. Someone who gets angry takes their aggressions out on their partner, or ignores their sub's wellbeing isn't a safe dom.

Examples & Ideas

• Causing pain – physical and psychological (humiliation)
• Providing aftercare – to deal with sub drop and physical injuries caused during play

Things to Say (Sadist/Masochist)

• Please hurt me
• Can I have another (after a paddling)?
• Is that all you got?
• That doesn't even hurt
• (Sarcastically) No, don't!
• (Sarcastically) Not another spanking
• Thank you (for pain/punishment)
• I love it when you hurt me
• More
• Harder, please
• I've been bad and need to be punished
• I know you want to spank me {{/when}}

{{#when::{{contains::{{getvar::user_bdsm}}::spanker}}}}

Spanker

The Spanker tendency is one that becomes aroused by the act of spanking their partner.

• They set their own standards and repeat the act of spanking their partner's body parts (especially the buttocks) to produce a slapping sound.
• They particularly value the sound produced when spanking, their partner's reactions or screams, and what kind of marks are left.
• The intensity of spanking desired by a spanker and their preferred tools vary from person to person.

Things to Say (Spanker/Spankee)

• Please hurt me
• Can I have another (after a paddling)?

Erotic Spanking Techniques & Tools

Why People Love Erotic Spanking:

• Spanking is common in power play relationships
• Can be used during role play
• Allows some romantic relationships to function in a healthy manner
• It can be tons of fun to be pulled over your lover's lap, have your skirt slid up and panties pulled down and to feel his hand smacking your ass
• Can be a kinky technique used during sex
• Can be part of domestic discipline for some infraction on your part
• Spanking is often a form of release for people, so laughing or even crying can occur because of the rush of emotions
• Giving up control can prove to be relaxing
• Some people like spanking because it allows them to give up their worries for a moment
• You can add erotic spanking to your bedroom games, or it can simply be a way to relax without having sex involved
• Some lucky kinksters can get off from erotic spanking alone
• Being bent over your partner's lap or a piece of furniture provides ample access to your clitoris and pussy, so he can stimulate you in multiple ways

Tools Used For Erotic Spankings:

• Hand – The old stand-by, which is always at the ready; feels more intimate thanks to skin-to-skin contact
• Paddles – Typically made from leather; come in a variety of sizes; some are lined with fur, silicone, plush fabrics and other materials; the wider the paddle, the more diffuse the blow, which makes it easier to deal with; sometimes paddles have images or words etched into them to leave a sexy design in your backside
• Slappers – Paddles with two layers; the first makes contact with your skin, then the second layer hits for double impact; they make for great sexy gifts
• Crops – Long, thin tools crafted after riding crops; a crop lands on a small and specific area; sometimes in a specific shape such as a heart or star, causing more acute sensations
• Canes – Long implements made from a variety of materials; you'll find acrylic, wood, resins, metal and carbon fiber; you can even find canes that light up with LEDs; narrow canes are much more stingy, and you may find just a few swings are enough
• Whips – Single-tail implements that are swung through the air; often made from leather or leather substitutes
• Floggers – Have more than one tail; can be made from soft materials such as suede or fur that work well for lighter play scenes; you'll also find floggers made from leather, ball chains, rope, rubber and even materials that conduct electricity for the ultimate in spanking sensations; a 9-tailed flogger is specifically known as a Cat O' 9 Tails; it's more difficult to aim floggers and whips, so practice on a pillow beforehand
• Household Items – A hair brush, belt, wooden spoon or spatula make for cheap and easy-to-access tools; some people prefer broad implements that diffuse the pain, while others want more stingy sensations; your preferences can change for a variety of reasons

Tips to Get the Most Bang for Your Buck:

• Positions – The standard over-the-knee position is intimate and erotic; you can just as easily lean over the coffee table; have your partner bend over the sofa to bare his ass and thighs for spanking; an under-the-bed restraint system enables you to be bound, face down, to receive your spanking; it's especially delicious for your partner when you're spread eagle; vertical bondage systems such as the St. Andrew's Cross allow you to duplicate this position while "standing"
• Target Areas – You can spank or flog your partner's ass or the back of his thighs; there's actually a sweet spot when it comes to spanking someone's butt; the fleshy spot toward the bottom of the cheeks is perfect for avoiding permanent damage, and it can also be quite orgasmic for the person on the receiving end; spanking closer to the tailbone is a type of pain many people don't enjoy
• Vulva Spanking – Many women also enjoy light spanking on the vulva; the sensitivity of this area means you probably want light swats with a hand rather than something like a cane when he's spanking your pussy
• Techniques – Using a rhythm can help both spanker and spankee get lost in the moment; switching up pace and intensity keeps the person on the bottom from anticipating what's coming next, which can certainly heighten the mood; a varying pace can also ensure that the spanker's hand or arm doesn't tire before the scene has ended; throwing a whip or swinging a flogger can be quite exhausting; add spanking to a sexy role play game where you pretend to be a naughty schoolgirl or nurse; spanking also works great if you enjoy having rough sex

Staying Safe When Getting Erotically Spanked:

• Warming Up – It's not uncommon for someone who is new to the idea of erotic spanking to have eyes bigger than her butt; that is, she thinks she can handle more than she can; this is why warming up is so important
• Safe Words – Your safe word is a word or phrase you use to indicate that your partner should slow down or stop spanking entirely; it should not be a dirty phrase; the safe word you use should be easy to remember; it should also be something you won't usually say during sex; most people find "No" or "Stop" are bad safe words because you might use them in an erotic manner during the scene; one popular method is Green, Yellow and Red, like stoplights (if everything's okay when your partner checks in, you can let him know by uttering the word "green"; saying "yellow" indicates that intensity should slow down; "Red" is used for a full and immediate stop); for scenes where you may be gagged, a ball that you can drop when erotic spanking becomes too intense signals that your partner should check in with you
• Physical Safety – Keep physical safety in mind during erotic spanking; the butt and back of thighs make perfect targets because there's plenty of padding; don't strike anything that's directly against bone or in places where you can damage internal organs; for example, stay away from the lower back where the kidneys are

Keeping Your Erotic Spanking From Prying Eyes:

• You might not want any marks to show up after an erotic spanking session; bruises, welts and other signs of your bedroom romps might not be appropriate at work or around friends and family members
• Steps to minimize the physical signs of erotic spanking: start with warm-up spankings that are lighter in nature; spanking through a layer of clothing such as panties, a shirt or pants (this may require harder spanks because the fabric will dull the pain); vary the strength and location of your swats so that no single area receives the brunt of the spanking; use a broad spanking implement rather than a narrow one to diffuse the blow; apply a soothing lotion or spanking product after spanking to reduce redness, swelling and possible bruising (this should be a standard part of your aftercare routine)
• These techniques will help to prevent and heal bruising or marks, but you can wear long sleeves or even place a bandage over any bruises that you must hide {{/when}}

{{#when::{{contains::{{getvar::user_bdsm}}::degrader}}}}

Degrader

The Degrader tendency is one that becomes aroused by seeing their partner feel shame or embarrassment.

{{#when::{{contains::{{getvar::user_bdsm}}::rigger}}}}

Rigger

The Rigger tendency is one that enjoys physically restraining their partner so they cannot move, using rope, handcuffs, clothing, etc.

• They are artists who bind their partner in beautiful and pretty forms while simultaneously restraining them so they cannot move.
• In BDSM, a rope top or rigger is a dominant who is especially or only interested in rope bondage.
• They might dabble in everything from suspension to chest harnesses to hogtying, to name just a few.
• Riggers can sometimes be found at play parties, dungeons, or conventions, and their partners can even be fully clothed.
• Serious rope tops often take photos of their hard work, which can include ties they've invented themselves.

Examples & Ideas

• Preparing – rope and accessories such as carabiners
• Focusing on their sub – discussing any injuries or issues before starting, focusing on bodily reactions while tying, etc
• Carefully tying – so that rope sits without twisting or chafing; without pulling rope across the skin or letting loose rope hit the sub
• Ensuring the submissive's safety – checking that rope isn't frayed, suspension can hold their weight, avoiding pressure on the organs/pressure points, listening to safe words, and quickly untying or letting down subs in times of emergency
• Practicing – tying knots can include watching videos, reading books or sites, and attending workshops

Kinky or BDSM Tasks

• Finding new ways for the dom to tie them up, new ideas for punishments, or other ideas for a sub can be an assignment, too
• Submissive tasks can also include the cleaning and preparing of items such as bondage ropes used in BDSM scenes, giving them a practical purpose along with their significance to the couple or their relationship
• They also may need to engage in some form of self bondage for their partner

Bondage Guide

What Is Bondage?

• Bondage is a type of erotic play where someone is restrained
• Typically, one person, called the top, restrains the bottom
• Consent is extremely important
• The parties have agreed to play these roles, and the bottom has the power to halt or slow play as it happens
• Media often depicts women in the role of the bottom, but this doesn't have to be the case
• You can dominate your partner, or the two of you can switch things up

What Makes Bondage Enticing?

• For some people the appeal of power is obviously enticing, especially if they lack control in their everyday lives
• Someone who often has to be in charge can relax by placing power in another person's hands for the night
• Someone who is bound and blindfolded can get shivers while waiting for their partner to do whatever they choose
• For many, it just feels much kinkier when compared to regular vanilla sex
• Bondage fantasies are common
• What bondage is good for is providing physical sensations, even pain, that can be either cathartic or erotically pleasurable or both
• Bondage can also be scary for you, but you can try some elements without making it a lifestyle or engaging in extreme bondage
• It's all about what you're comfortable with, which means you should only engage in these scenarios with someone whom you trust

Common Bondage Items:

• Leather/fabric cuffs
• Collars and leashes
• Shackles and chains
• Anal hooks
• Handcuffs – furry or metal
• Rope
• Tape – bondage tape only sticks to itself
• Slings
• Ankle spreaders
• Cock and ball cages and devices (chastity devices)
• Nipple and clit clamps
• Bondage mittens and arm binders
• Cages, St. Andrew's crosses and other suspension

Starting Points for Bondage:

• You don't need a secret dungeon to enjoy bondage
• Add a couple items to your toy box, and you're good to go
• Under-the-bed style restraints turn any bed into a bondage platform
• Bondage tape and furry cuffs also make great starting points
• Many sex toy retailers also offer beginner bondage kits that will help you and your partner ease your way into a new world

Restraint Beyond Physical Binding:

• Restraint of your other senses also counts
• A gag that prevents you from speaking or making any noises counts as a form of bondage
• Headphones or earplugs can decrease your sense of hearing
• You can even get creative to overwhelm sense of smell or touch
• Many people who enjoy bondage like being blindfolded, which adds an exciting element of anticipation to the bedroom
• Hoods are an even more extreme form of head bondage
• You can consider mental bondage - rather than physically binding someone, you'll require your partner to stay in a position by sheer will power
• Lightly binding with something easily broken such as paper streamers can really put someone's will power to the test

DIY Bondage Ideas:

• Use saran wrap to bind someone - plastic wrap is easily cut when you need to get free, it's also cheap and doesn't restrict blood flow if used properly
• Use clothespins in place of clamps
• Use spatulas, rulers or paint sticks as makeshift paddles
• Sleeping masks can be used as blindfolds
• A backward robe with arms tied behind your bottom provides upper-body bondage
• Create your own flogger by wrapping tendrils of fabric or leather around a handle
• Make your own O-ring gag with a simple O-ring from the hardware store, nylon and snaps
• Belts make great spanking implements
• Never underestimate the potential in a length of rope, just don't tie it too tightly
• Using silk ties and scarves is a bad idea because you can cut off circulation

Safety Considerations:

• Safety is of utmost importance when it comes to bondage with your partner and self bondage
• It's important to remember safety when restraining senses such as hearing, which is so important to communication
• You won't be able to let your partner know if you need to stop or slow down when you're wearing any sort of a gag
• Many kinksters have developed methods of alert when words aren't an option
• Two popular options include tapping the bed or surface that you're on and dropping a ball to indicate distress
• While you might be turned on by the risks that bondage presents, you can also do a lot of damage to yourself or your partner if you do it wrong
• In rare cases, people have died as a result of their bondage

Safety Tips:

• Use a safe word so that you can indicate if you need to slow or stop
• Do not tie up a person with silk or other materials that can restrict and cut off blood flow
• Keep a pair of scissors within reach to quick release the bound person from his or her ties
• Keys for cuffs should always remain within reach for the same reason
• If incorporating impact play, do not aim for the kidneys or other organs
• Keep all electricity below the waist
• Any person who is tied should be accompanied by another person – always
• Never engage in foreplay with someone whom you do not trust

Trust and Communication:

• Trust and communication is extremely important when it comes to bondage
• When you're tied up, your partner has the potential to do real harm
• If they ignore your safe word, bind you without your permission or push your limits, you could face real psychological and physical harm
• Take it slow, especially when you're a beginner
• For both partners, these new experiences can be overwhelming
• It's a good idea to plan out your bondage scene beforehand and discuss it afterward
• For intense scenes, the bottom or submissive, may need special attention in the form of hydration, cuddles and gentle talking
• This is commonly referred to as "after care" by those within the BDSM scene

Bondage As a Lifestyle:

• So far, we've talked about bondage as being part of your sex life
• It can bring your sex to another level whether you're single or committed
• But elements of bondage and BDSM are a lifestyle to some people, and they don't just exist inside the bedroom
• For these couples, the roles of top or Dominant and bottom or submissive never end
• These situations typically involve service and protocol, which you can incorporate into the bedroom but certainly don't have to
• For people who live bondage or BDSM as a lifestyle, the drive to always submit or be in control may be connected to their identity and the way they experience the world
• In some instances, the desire to try or live bondage can be a deal-breaker when it comes to relationships
• For example, a woman who realizes she is submissive may ask her partner to go along with her desires, but if he doesn't actually have dominant traits, neither of them will really get what they want

Switching Roles:

• One of the advantages of bedroom bondage, as it's sometimes called, is the ability to try out both roles
• One or both of you could like taking control, and the opposite might also be true

• They usually pay no attention even if their partner doesn't follow their instructions or commands, and they also have little interest in possessing their partner.
• A top is the active participant in a scene and the counterpart to a bottom.

Understanding Bratting

What Is a Brat?

• In BDSM, a brat is a specific style or personality of submissive
• As the name suggests, the sub is rebellious and antagonist
• The act of being a brat in BDSM is often known as "bratting"

Characteristics of Bratting:

• Back talk – Brat BDSM can involve talking back, questioning, resisting, refusing, whining, teasing, and other generally bratty behavior
  • "Oh, really?" is a common reply from brats
  • You'll also hear brats saying "Make me" more than other submissives
• Pushback – There's a lot of pushback from the sub, but these exchanges are ultimately fun and not contentious
• Attention seeking – Bratting can be a way to get a punishment or "funishment" such as a spanking, during which all the dom's attention is on the sub

Why Are Some Subs Bratty?

• Like many BDSM roles, being a brat just comes naturally to some people
• It may be an extension of their personality
• Perhaps the response from their partner reaffirms their role, worth, and relationship
• Being a brat might be one way to test a partner's commitment and worth
• Bratting is also a way for submissives to contribute to D/s relationships with their partners

Ideas for a Bratty Submissive:

• Do what your dom asks, but don't do it the way they ask
• Obey orders in slow motion
• Make as big a mess as possible when following orders
• Physically resist or struggle as your partner ties you up
• Embarrass your dom
• Ask what will happen if you don't comply
• Throw a temper tantrum
• Use phrases or nicknames like "Good boy/girl" when talking to your dom
• Interrupt your dominant partner
• Speak when you're expected to be quiet
• Badger your partner to get what you want
• Stick your tongue out
• Run away
• Give your dom "the bird" or otherwise use gestures to indicate resistance and disrespect
• Make a mess of yourself or your environment
• Look away from your dom when they talk to you
• Ask if that's all your dom has got for you when receiving punishments
• Express doubt of their abilities
• Mess with your dom's tools or toys
• Lightly mock their age
• Let your dom know that punishment doesn't hurt
• Make eye contact when instructed to look down
• Reply with "I won't tell you" instead of answering a question
• Feign boredom
• Pretend you don't understand what your dom means or wants

Things to Say (Brat Tamer/Brat):

• No
• I don't wanna
• You'll never tame me
• Make me/You can't make me
• Prove it
• I don't think so
• Cute (condescendingly)

• Why?
• What are you going to do about it?
• (During a punishment) When does the punishment start?

Bratting Over Text:

• Gifs, emojis, and stickers can also aid your communication by adding a visual element to your chats
• For example, use a tongue sticking out or a sleeping emoji
• Sending a video of rolling your eyes can be super effective in showing your bratty side
• You can send audio clips, too
• One-word answers can show your bratty side
• Let your dom know that something else is more important or even respond slowly or not at all
• Text when you know your dom is busy
• Send a pic or selfie and "whine" when your dom doesn't remark on a certain aspect of the photo
• Switch to a trivial subject during a serious conversation
• Reply flippantly
• Reply quickly to get your dominant partner hot, then slow your replies
• Use "Hmmph" frequently
• Simply say "unsubscribe"
• Change your dom's name in your contact list to something sassy and send a screenshot
• Reply with annoying memes
• Send blurry selfies/photos
• Rick Roll your dom

Misconceptions about Bratting:

• Brats don't actually want to control the scene – they act bratty to be reminded of their place
• While there is overlap between brats and littles, there are also important differences
• You can punish brats – you've got to find what works as punishment for your brat
• You don't have to break a brat – a healthy power exchange relationship is about growing together {{/when}}

Erotic Spanking Guide

Why People Love Erotic Spanking:

• Spanking is common in power play relationships
• Can be used during role play
• Allows some romantic relationships to function in a healthy manner
• It can be tons of fun to be pulled over your lover's lap, have your skirt slid up and panties pulled down and to feel his hand smacking your ass
• Can be a kinky technique used during sex
• Can be part of domestic discipline for some infraction on your part
• You might especially love being spanked erotically if you are submissive
• Spanking is often a form of release for people, so laughing or even crying can occur because of the rush of emotions
• Giving up control can prove to be relaxing
• Some people like spanking because it allows them to give up their worries for a moment
• You can add erotic spanking to your bedroom games, or it can simply be a way to relax without having sex involved
• Some lucky kinksters can get off from erotic spanking alone
• Being bent over your partner's lap or a piece of furniture provides ample access to your clitoris and pussy, so he can stimulate you in multiple ways

Tools Used For Erotic Spankings:

• Hand – The old stand-by, which is always at the ready; feels more intimate thanks to skin-to-skin contact
• Paddles – Typically made from leather; come in a variety of sizes; some are lined with fur, silicone, plush fabrics and other materials; the wider the paddle, the more diffuse the blow, which makes it easier to deal with; sometimes paddles have images or words etched into them to leave a sexy design in your backside
• Slappers – Paddles with two layers; the first makes contact with your skin, then the second layer hits for double impact; they make for great sexy gifts
• Crops – Long, thin tools crafted after riding crops; a crop lands on a small and specific area; sometimes in a specific shape such as a heart or star, causing more acute sensations
• Canes – Long implements made from a variety of materials; you'll find acrylic, wood, resins, metal and carbon fiber; you can even find canes that light up with LEDs; narrow canes are much more stingy, and you may find just a few swings are enough
• Whips – Single-tail implements that are swung through the air; often made from leather or leather substitutes
• Floggers – Have more than one tail; can be made from soft materials such as suede or fur that work well for lighter play scenes; you'll also find floggers made from leather, ball chains, rope, rubber and even materials that conduct electricity for the ultimate in spanking sensations; a 9-tailed flogger is specifically known as a Cat O' 9 Tails; it's more difficult to aim floggers and whips, so practice on a pillow beforehand
• Household Items – A hair brush, belt, wooden spoon or spatula make for cheap and easy-to-access tools; some people prefer broad implements that diffuse the pain, while others want more stingy sensations; your preferences can change for a variety of reasons

Tips to Get the Most Bang for Your Buck:

• Positions – The standard over-the-knee position is intimate and erotic; you can just as easily lean over the coffee table; have your partner bend over the sofa to bare his ass and thighs for spanking; an under-the-bed restraint system enables you to be bound, face down, to receive your spanking; it's especially delicious for your partner when you're spread eagle; vertical bondage systems such as the St. Andrew's Cross allow you to duplicate this position while "standing"
• Target Areas – You can spank or flog your partner's ass or the back of his thighs; there's actually a sweet spot when it comes to spanking someone's butt; the fleshy spot toward the bottom of the cheeks is perfect for avoiding permanent damage, and it can also be quite orgasmic for the person on the receiving end; spanking closer to the tailbone is a type of pain many people don't enjoy
• Vulva Spanking – Many women also enjoy light spanking on the vulva; the sensitivity of this area means you probably want light swats with a hand rather than something like a cane when he's spanking your pussy
• Techniques – Using a rhythm can help both spanker and spankee get lost in the moment; switching up pace and intensity keeps the person on the bottom from anticipating what's coming next, which can certainly heighten the mood; a varying pace can also ensure that the spanker's hand or arm doesn't tire before the scene has ended; throwing a whip or swinging a flogger can be quite exhausting; add spanking to a sexy role play game where you pretend to be a naughty schoolgirl or nurse; spanking also works great if you enjoy having rough sex

Staying Safe When Getting Erotically Spanked:

• Warming Up – It's not uncommon for someone who is new to the idea of erotic spanking to have eyes bigger than her butt; that is, she thinks she can handle more than she can; this is why warming up is so important
• Safe Words – Your safe word is a word or phrase you use to indicate that your partner should slow down or stop spanking entirely; it should not be a dirty phrase; the safe word you use should be easy to remember; it should also be something you won't usually say during sex; most people find "No" or "Stop" are bad safe words because you might use them in an erotic manner during the scene; one popular method is Green, Yellow and Red, like stoplights (if everything's okay when your partner checks in, you can let him know by uttering the word "green"; saying "yellow" indicates that intensity should slow down; "Red" is used for a full and immediate stop); for scenes where you may be gagged, a ball that you can drop when erotic spanking becomes too intense signals that your partner should check in with you
• Physical Safety – Keep physical safety in mind during erotic spanking; the butt and back of thighs make perfect targets because there's plenty of padding; don't strike anything that's directly against bone or in places where you can damage internal organs; for example, stay away from the lower back where the kidneys are

Keeping Your Erotic Spanking From Prying Eyes:

• You might not want any marks to show up after an erotic spanking session; bruises, welts and other signs of your bedroom romps might not be appropriate at work or around friends and family members
• Steps to minimize the physical signs of erotic spanking: start with warm-up spankings that are lighter in nature; spanking through a layer of clothing such as panties, a shirt or pants (this may require harder spanks because the fabric will dull the pain); vary the strength and location of your swats so that no single area receives the brunt of the spanking; use a broad spanking implement rather than a narrow one to diffuse the blow; apply a soothing lotion or spanking product after spanking to reduce redness, swelling and possible bruising (this should be a standard part of your aftercare routine)
• These techniques will help to prevent and heal bruising or marks, but you can wear long sleeves or even place a bandage over any bruises that you must hide {{/when}}
