Well in terms of an emotiomal reaction, I guess I also do what juliaoceania just mentioned. I may feel defensive, and will sometimes (usually) say something to defend my behavior. But that has never (or rarely anyway) meant I won't be disciplined - I have been anyway, so it hasn't usually mattered. Yes, it does matter to me if a Dominant is critcal when disciplining me - I mean, if it's punishment, it's punishment. To me, discipline is for different reasons than punishment. If a Dominant is going to be very critical of me, he may as well just punish me instead, I think, and get that over with for us both. He can correct me without resorting to harsh verbal statements or out-right ridicule, I think. Unless he is punishing me, for some reason (and even then, I see this as counter-productive, most of the time). Of course, he's in charge - I am just saying what I think works for me. - Susan - Susan
