A beating…whipping…spanking…paddling, flogging, will most likely have a central role to play in any Dom/sub, Master/slave relationship. Yes, it can simply be about the Doms pleasure, the truly sadistic Dom will love to hear the screams, feel the power from the suffering He is inflicting…He beats because He can, because He enjoys it but He also knows it is what the slave needs. But there are many other reasons to beat the slave…in no particular order…

Motivation - A bit like driving any animal, a slave will become far more motivated when it feels the sting of the flogger across its back…., more push ups, will do that extra set with the weights, run faster to fetch the drinks…

or as above, ignore the sore knees, the aching limbs, crawling faster and for longer than it ever thought possible. 

Humiliation - Naughty boys get spanked with a hairbrush or slipper! Bare assed over Daddy’s knee or…

…restrained in humiliating positions, hole exposed, vulnerable, helpless, accessible…

Or in public, you try not to cry like a baby, want to show you can take it, but He just continues until you can’t take it any more and start bawling. the snickers of the watching crowd making you blush as red as your butt. 

Punishment - Pretty obvious but how does a Master punish the slave who craves being beaten. i was once told it’s never really punishment until you genuinely want it to stop….

…or when the slave cock is soft.

There may be some truly, deeply, masochistic slaves therefore for whom beating isn’t effective punishment, is not a way to correct and train. There will be other ways….

But for many, me included, a beating will soon become unbearable, the pain will be remembered and the lesson will be learned. 

Routine - It is not uncommon for Masters to give a routine beating, usually at the beginning and/or end of every day. This is not really about punishment it is a simple reminder to the slave of what it is, pain is part of its life, of what it was born for….

…to get it into the correct head space for service, to enforce the fact that it is owned, a slave. 

Breaking - Taken beyond anything it has experienced before, crumbling, sobbing, it has given up on begging, Master is relentless, reducing it to mush…body, mind and soul. Broken down it can then be rebuilt in the way Master desires. 

Pride/Power Demonstration - Public beating can be humiliating but it can also be the complete opposite. Master knows you can take it, wants to show the world the power He has over you, wants to display how far you will go, how much you can endure. He is proud of you, you get the opportunity to show your obedience and submission, maybe shouting ‘YES SIR, THANK YOU SIR, PLEASE MAY IT HAVE ANOTHER SIR!’ 

Marking - Also a symbol of pride for both Master and slave. Letting the world see what you have taken. Personally i love that feeling of showing my bruises, cuts, welts off in public, getting satisfaction from the shocked stares, or envious glances. Master did this to me, it shows the world i am His. it shows i have suffered for Him. 

Sadistic pleasure - there is nothing better than seeing the joy on a true Sadists face as He beats, how He ignores the begging, gets off on my pain…

Making Master happy with your suffering is the motivation to take more, His laughter and pleasure soothing your soul, driving you to new levels of endurance.

Masochistic pleasure - In the same way the Sadist gets pleasure from inflicting pain, the true masochist can be given pleasure from receiving it. Beatings can also be sensual, floggers used skilfully can caress as much as they can torture. A gradual build up having a different effect than the thudding force of an initial thundering blow, quickly repeated…

…toying with the slaves erection, i’ve heard of masochists who have been driven to cum just from the physical stroke of a flogger….as a non masochistic sub this is not my own experience though! 

Intimacy, bonding - For me good BDSM bonds. Master and slave push each other, both give. both receive. Being talked through a whipping by a Master, encouraged, praised, or indeed shouted at, mocked, can all have a motivating effect. At the end both might be exhausted, drained, but at that moment, if Master holds me close, tells me i’ve done good, i thank him, the bond grows, deepens…

because it brings you closer to Him.
