About Punishment

As I do not want to take the risk of putting sassy pants to sleep, I will try to keep this posting as short as possible.





There were some really good comments on the last posting. Little Shaun makes the comment that his wife will probably never have him under her complete control. This may be true. However, since she has the confidence to punish him, to a large degree she must have him under her thumb. My guess is that she has found the rite balance in their relationship. Different women give their men different amounts of freedom. She has found the balance of authority and control over Little Shaun that works best for her.




Often times men simply don't understand how much confidence it takes for a women to give a man an order. You need to have a very basic confidence that your man will do as told. Any little back talking from a guy can shake a women's confidence level. It takes even more confidence to punish a man. You think to your self is this big, strong, six foot man going to really kneel in a corner because I am ordering him to do so.





Last week I talked about Karen taking the whip to her guy. During the week I asked Karen how she felt when she picked up the whip. I asked her if she wondered if her guy would accept the whip. This was real punishment, real pain. He could have grabbed the whip from her hand. After all he is bigger and stronger than she is. Karen told me that the look on his face told her that he was going to accept what ever whipping she decided to give him. She told me that the look was hard to describe, but it was the look of fear. Her guy knew he had been doing something wrong, and he could sense the high degree of anger in her attitude. In this case Karen's anger helped give her the added confidence needed to deal with her man's misbehavior.





I always love reading the comments by Plaything. He has been married to his mistress for 23 years. He sounds like a very sweet boy that has been well trained and disciplined over the years of his marriage. What women don't understand is that sweet, well trained men like Plaything are a joy to own. It is not just about cleaning house. These men are there when you need them. You don't need to worry about them cheating on you, or doing something they shouldn't be doing. I love to hear a man talk about how proud he is when one of his wife's fiends makes nice comments about him. Twenty three years after they were married he loves his wife as much as he did on the first day. To me this is what fem/dom marriages are all about.

Another thing men do not always understand is that it takes work to train a man. Yes, it is worth it. I would suspect in twenty three of years of marriage Plaything's wife has put a great deal of effort into his training. It takes a high degree of discipline to keep a man on track for twenty three years. When you love a man it is all worth while. Remember the posting from the summer before last titled Training the Champs. I would guess that Plaything is one of those champs.

After Plaything I was pleased to read the comment by Forever hers. Forever hers and his mistress have been in their relationship for only two months. What impressed me was that even in a vanilla setting he understands that his wife is the one who is in charge. This is what people don't seam to under stand about fem/dom relationships. Yes, the female is in charge twenty four hours a day. However, that doesn't mean she is constantly bossing her man around. Yes, Forever understands that one of the worse punishments his mistress can give him is just to leave him alone. The silent treatment will drive a man crazy in a day or two. This is a simple, real punishment tool that any women can use.

Well, I will talk more about punishment in the next posting. Once again, at the risk of putting my little pet from South Florida to sleep, I will end this session here. For whatever reason I get the feeling there are more women reading this blog than the comments woulds suggest. I would love to her from you. What has worked for you as far as punishing your man. How does punishing a guy make you feel?

Love, Mistress Kathy

Mistress Kathy,

It is so true that my wife has a lot of courage to push me around the way she does. Sometimes I forget that I am truly under her thumb and worry too much about other relationships such as yours where your husband has little freedom at all.

The biggest punishment I can get is for her to stop all communication with me. It scares me to death that I don't know what she is thinking at the time. The domination sessions I receive are actually rewards in our marriage.

For little shaun

Thank you for the comment. Instead of pushing, I like to think of a mistress wife leeding her man.

If it had not been for having a relationship with a dominatrix, I would allow John more personal freedom.

Once a man shows he can not resist temptation, it is up to the wife to
pull the leash in. Also, while it may seam strange, John likes the feeling of being on the leash. On several occasions John has told me that he does not handle freedom well.

That was a great read, thanks for sharing :-)

Thank you so much for your kind words Mistress Kathy! :-) Reading your comments made very happy and I swear I must be blushing right now!!

As you know I am a great admirer of yours. You understand many fundamental truths about a loving female dominant relationship that others seem confused about. You love your man enough to take the time to understand him. You realize that this was how he was made and he can never change. You admit you don't know the "why" but you understand that when he submits to you he is giving you his heart and soul. You understand that by opening himself up to you in this fashion he is placing his deepest trust in you. You love and respect him for that. That is a very beautiful thing!

Thanks again for making my day and for being a shining example to those of us whose deepest desire is to walk down this path!

With Deepest Respect and Admiration

You are a sweet boy.

It's football season and Sassy's head and bank account are all a twitter...

Betting on football when you're in a losing streak is like root canal...

As to the matter at hand... there are virtually no women who comment...there is that one woman who checks in to see if John has gone to the second hand store and a one lettered Mistress...could be "L" who tosses words around like they were man hole covers...she is ,needless to say,a quick read...

In closing,I do appreciate the blog mistress keeping her thoughts to a managable level...if I want to read a novella,I'll head off to the library...:)

To continue with my comment from the last post the worse punishment is Mistress doing nothing. As some of you may have read my wife and I have only been in this lifestyle for a 2 months. Yesterday morning I was awarded the privlidge of having an orgasm. Well, as us guys know once we have one, the urge to be submissive is weakened.

I was a bit flip all day as Mistress had chores lined up and I really didn't feel like doing anything. By mis day Miss was ignoring me and I was running around like a puppy dog trying to fix it. I guess I was back to old behaviors becuase Miss told me that if I didn't want to do this correctly or I was going to snicker evertime she gave me an order then we can just forget the whole thing. I panicked as i know I crave the domination and hate when she ignores me.

See, for some of us it isn't a choice. We need to be submissive in order to feel whole and loved.

Miss Kathy is correct that in order to live this correctly even in vanilla situations you must understand that Mistres ALWAYS HAS THE LAST WORD. I'm lucky that my wife allows me an opinion and that my thoughts are considered. Punsishment, for lack of better terms is simply reward for being a good little boy.

Male bottoms and self worth...

One of the things that I take away from the 'comments' section is just how needy the bottoms are who post...it looks to be that the wives have made an accomadation (s) to satisfy their husbands pathology...this to me is neither good nor bad as well,we are all adults...what I don't understand is just why these wives have made the accomadation...women are very pragmatic,we are a reflection of how they see themselves...kind of like the ultimate Hermes purse...:)

Now,I come from the world of S&M where I was a switch...I've topped,men,women,pre and post op transexuals and an occasional Lutheran or two...but,i am at heart a bottom...over the course of my life you could probably fill a greyhound bus with the women I've bottomed for....Mrs. Sassy being the bus driver...my wife wouldn't have given me the time of day if I had come across as anything less than a man when we met...

It is a very strange Kink...

Her Majesty's Plaything said...

Hi Sassypants:

I admit that I sometimes enjoy reading your comments here because they can be quite amusing. Don't you think this one might be just a wee bit snarky though?

I always find it curious when people in the scene claim to be so experienced and open minded about kink then display intolerance for the orientation of others. You seem to be projecting a rather stereotypical and limited definition of "masculinity" here. Personally I prefer Sir Walter Raleigh to Andrew Dice Clay! ;-)

Not to say there aren't valid issues to be discussed where submissive men and a strong sense of self worth are concerned. I think that could be a potentially fascinating topic for discussion. Nevertheless I believe that kindness, fairness and tolerance should always be our watch words when talking with each other about our various kinks and alternative lifestyles.

HMP:

Well,you do raise some good points...my first reaction is to say that I'm not intolerent of other adults interaction(s)...which,in the abstract is true...but...

when we first moved to florida,my wife and I went to a DD party...there was a couple there where the guy was a fully tricked out bottom...he was handsome,personable and yet off-putting...long story short,he was a P&C Agent and he convinced me (over time) to put my house and car insurance with him...I was miserable...I just didn't like how he conducted himself socially and I finally pulled the business...so yeah,in at least one occasion,I have been intolerent of how someone else approaches the kink...

Mark said...

My wife's 'abilities' in that area definately come and go. We call it mojo. When she has her mojo I can expect to be under her thumb as you put it. Sometimes life gangs up on us though and she just doesn't have the energy it takes to maintain it. Then we start over.

It is a tremendous amount of effort for her which makes me love her all the more. I've offered to give it up before and she won't let me. Which answers the question of why does she do it? Because I need it, she loves me, and she gets a husband who adores her.

Ms. Kathy I just dicovered your blog. It is BY FAR the best real life Femdom blog on the net, bar none...trust me Ive read them all. You have inspired me to start a blog of my own. My wife and I are still within the 1st yr of Femdom but are far enough along to have experienced a few rough patches and fall outs and learn from them. Of course I always come back groveling LOL. We both know that there is no turning back and that this lifestyle is what is best for us.

Your stories are very "hot" not in a kinky sense, but have a true dominant woman sense. You seem to understand the dynamics in play so well and use them to both you and John's benefit and it comes across in your stories...very HOT & powerful.

Thank you!

Kathy,

As always, thanks for posting your thoughts. In the past you've been somewhat hesitant to share your ideas on punishment so I think a lot of us (your followers) are anxious to hear what you have to say on this subject.

Once again, thanks for a great blog!

George

Mistress Kathy
My wife and I live in a FemDom relationship and it works when I let her Mistress and don't try to control it. It took me a long time to realize this but I have and now it is getting even better.
I just dicovered your site and I learned a lot reading your posts.
I know that if you want this type of relationship as a man then you need to trust the Mistress you are owned by and let her lead and just work at pleasing and serving her...the rest will work out
Thanks

To Pam's boy:

That is a good observation. You sound like an older boy.

Would you mind telling me a little more about how your FLM started.

Love, Kathy
