Face slapping

[ces3]

I enjoy slapping my little sub. When she needs it and somtimes just because I want to. Only when it is part of our play time though. I would never slap my sub who is also my lovely wife otherwise.

I love face-slapping and it's one of the BDSM practices that I was able to "sneak in" to relationships that were otherwise BDSM free. It requires no props and is incredibly symbolic and visceral. Just a few of the reasons I love face-slapping:

1. The connotation of the submissive permitting herself to be abused in ways that would offend "conventional" women. This not only suggests a lack of self-esteem on her part that I find unspeakably sexy, but also a capitulation that is equally sexy.

2. Hitting women is wrong. In enlightened sadism we know this, and so a woman who permits herself to be slapped around can be said to have something wrong with her. For me "something wrong" and "depravity" or "taboo" overlap almost exactly in meaning, and so there's a lot of eroticism to be found there.

3. Gives the man a feeling of dominance. Harkens back to the caveman days when we used to club women over the head and drag them back to the lair. Of course, this is the dumbest macho male fantasy of all time, but the fact that the woman is complicit in it by allowing her face to be slapped shows her devotion to you. When devotion outweighs enlightenment, that's my favorite form of submission.
