I agree entirely. I would hope that a dominant would have at least a modicum of respect enough for his submissive to make sure she at least enjoys herself.

I would even venture to say that I would hope a master would make sure his slave is happy with the treatment she is given, lest the slave leave to find better bedfellows.

As I have said, I have used the cane once or twice, but never hard enough to leave anything more than a red mark. I just don't believe in inflicting wounds (literally) on anyone under my dominance. That includes swollen welts, broken skin or otherwise.

If I must use something to spank or whip, it will either be a paddle, flogger, crop or my hand. Besides, the funnest forms of torture are things you can do without even touching your submissive. Too many people forget that the brain is the best sex toy.
