mmmmmmm.... this is Tinks Master "A" , the thing that confuses me most is that we have females answering questions on a MASTER'S forum, should you not be on the Domme's/Mistress's forum? answering the questions posted there?I would have been led to believe that if  whom ever is posting wanted the opinion of a woman would they not have posted in a forum specific to that gender? or are the women posting here "Masters"...is it anywonder that people end up confused, be assured that if my slave was caught posting in a forum dedicated to Master's she would loose the skin from her back!

Aye it can be confusing until you get used to it. I and other Dominants I know have been known to post replies in “Ask a Mistress” and “Ask a submissive/slave” forums also. On the whole what we get are replies from the perspective of a Mistress, a Switch, or a sub/slave. This has the advantage of broadening the perspective of answers and it is up to the individual, especially the poster, how much weight they place on the responses from non Masters (i.e. Male Dominants). I know at times it almost appears with some threads as if the Ask a Master forum is an overflow from the general Board but even though non Masters reply the original post or question is still directed to Masters or Male Dominants and could get buried in a General Board. I would hope that ypu may be persuaded to rethink this regarding your Tinka. This Forum would be that much poorer if Tink were not permitted to respond to posts here.

When I screw up, I usually am overly hard on myself mentally and let guilt cause me a lot of emotional pain. Being punished helps me deal with the guilt.

Well it has been a while now since I brought this topic up and this response in particular addresses the reason I might resort to punishment.  I can certainly see a need to use punishment to help Mine feel that she has atoned for whatever impropriety she may have committed and, in fact, looking back I can say I have actually done this, though I did not think of it as punishment so much as giving penance for a thing she felt terrible about so that she could put her guilt aside and return to a normal and healthy frame of mind.  There are times when My verbal lessons alone do not take all the internal pain she feels over doing something that has displeased Me, even on those occasions when she simply did not know any better (some of My pet peeves are not obvious and I do not think to communicate them until they come up).  At those times, My 'correction', though painful, is really much more like a hug after a stern talking to than a disciplinary action.  In any case, I have never had occasion to correct such an event a second time, so I see no reason to change that.

Thank you all for the thoughtful and thought provoking responses to this query.  I have found them to be very enlightening, and I will consider what I have read very carefully if and when next the need arises.

I recommend everyone here to read the book Behavior Analysis and Learning by Pierce and Cheney. You will learn everything about rewards, punishments, their effect and different aspects. After reading this book you will look at this thread very differently.

The only problem with this is the global statement: "I recommend everyone here to read the book Behavior Analysis and Learning by Pierce and Cheney." It is quite possible that quite a few have either read it or even have a copy. I know I'm only one of a few people with degrees in Psychology here...  Still it is a good thought and for those who haven't, it is not a bad work to read.....

Besides that...reading a book and understanding it..is something completely different.
Not all people see the things in book...for what it is written.

Thanks for your input. I am recommending a book for people interested in behavior and obedience training. It is not of my concern if people are not interested in reading or are dislexic. There are facts, information and research about all aspects of behavior training in this book, if people read it they will gain knowledge and insight. So for those interested go get the book!

It was not meant critical.
I meant if it is a professional book....people might not understand it. Sometimes books are to technical to understand for people not involved in that area.
The remark about "dislexic"is a bit sad.

Dyslexia has nothing to do with whether people like to read or not, it may be more difficult but I know a lot of people with dyslexia who enjoy reading.

Very true... here's a few more titles for interested readers.

Understanding Human Nature by Aflred Adler
The Individual Psychology of Alfred Adler, by Afred Adler
Adlerian Counseling: A Practicioner's Approach by Thomas J Sweeney, Ph. D.
Behavior Modification: Principles and Procedures, 3rd Ed. by Raymond G Miltenberger
Behavior Modification: What is it and How to Do It, 7th Ed. by Garry Martin & Joseph Pear
Applied Behavior Analysis by Cooper, Heron and Heward

I believe all are still in print and available through Barnes & Noble or Amazon

Now old friend you are cooking with gas. I have long believed that all Dominants probably need to understand psychology and in particular the psychology of relationship dynamics.. Just makes sense to me..

Ok, I admit it was harsh using dislexic. The book is good, it is professional but easy understanding the main principles in the first chapters. There are chapters that are more complex, but for someone really interested in behaviour it is very interesting.

I agree... and even if they don't want to tackle psychology per se, they ought to at least take a course on effective communication, or perhaps pick up a copy of Dale Carnegie's "How to Win Friends and Influence People."  Having a dominant personality is one thing... being able to effectively exert their will over another is another matter.

I agree with both of you and since Ironbear has openly spoken of his degree in psychology I would be grateful to get suggestions for professional reading material on relationship dynamics. Would you be so kind to share with us Ironbear?
