Im with emerald on this, the kneeling is too painful for me, so that would cause physical pain and DAMAGE, so thus, not a punishment acceptable in the safe sane consentual bracket for me. Sensory deprivation: that sends me to a lovely place. Though i disagree that if it were a punishment, i wouldnt enjoy it, i simply would enjoy that anytime. Even if it were only the peace within which to reflect upon my behaviour, id still enjoy it. The fly zapper is a physical punishment. Remember, nowhere above the heart though! Im sure i speak for most subs/slaves when i say, that the VERY worst punishment, is a mental one, when you know you have displeased your Dom. That's not a nice place to be. Allowing/Making your submissive remain in the 'failed as a sub/slave' space, is the place to punish from within. Once you have them in that space, keep them there, until you've decided what to do. This will allow you some time to cool off, think clearly etc. A discussion from my Dom, regarding what it is i did, when he asks me to describe what ive done wrong, me to describe why this is wrong, me to describe what the consequences of this are, has me very contrite, he then chooses the punishment, if there is to be futher punishment, but so far, the talking to, is sufficient to motivate me to change. My love for him, my wish to please him is what motivates me to change, not a punishment. Im a cognitive behavioural therapist, and just as a aside for your information: Physical punishment is a very ineffectual learning method that uses operant conditioning. For it to be effective, the punishment needs to occur almost simultaneously with the undesired behaviour for it to work. It has a high extinction rate, that is, works maybe once or twice, then becomes increasingly less effective with each repeated event. In the kinky world of a D/s dynamic, as there are one or two of us, who rather like a little pain dished out by our Dom/me's physical punishment is off to a downward spiral it seems, which ever way you view it. Id stick to the head stuff, much more fun and effective. good luck
