		<description>:) My &quot;failing&quot; violated no command, no protocol, no rule, no negotiation, no request; my Master learned of the missed surprise due to a change in the room, which I explained. If this flogging was punishment, it was a play vs a real one. And one of my responsibilities as a submissive is to honestly communicate to my Master during and after play sessions my reactions; no pretending to like what I do not, no pretending to dislike what actually triggers pleasure; without honesty in this, I would NOT be pleasing him but would be betraying the trust between us. 

When my Master has REALLY punished me, there might be intense non-subspace inducing physical pain, or none, and I still thank him, but any happiness I feel is more from clearing the shame and guilt and from renewing the bonds between us. And pleasing my Master, by withstanding or enjoying or waiting or taking initiative or being honest, is the greatest pleasure possible.</description>

		<description>Did I understand this correctly? The submissive got &quot;rewarded&quot; with a flogging for failing to perform a cock appreciation? Or she was happy because she was able to withstand a punishment flogging? Or she was happy because you showed you cared that she did not perform as she was supposed to? I am confused by this article.

For instance, I use a particular instrument on my subs for actual punishment. It is only used for punishment. It will forever be associated with punishment by my subs. However, it isn&#039;t actually the instrument that makes the punishment, it is the fact that they have let me down and are needing to be punished. It then becomes a matter of not what the instument is but what the intent is behind using this particular instrument. The energy in a punishment is very different from that of non-punishment play. It is these elements that make the instrument feared, not the instrument itself. That is why I cannot recall any of my subs wanting to dwell on their punishments publicly let alone call them &quot;lovely&quot;, though they have always been very appreciative of the fact that I cared enough to punish them, and have shown deeper effort in not trying to dissappoint me so, again. :) With Love in BDSM, -LordSir Ninetails</description>
