It isn’t punishment!

BDSM Negative Reinforcement

BDSM Negative Reinforcement

Over on Tell Me Your Fantasy, Ms Layla just did a wonderful post about empowering the Submissive, wherein she called me a cockteasing ballbuster!  I accept the title, but I wanted to talk about how, even in a hard-core scene, there’s room for empowerment.

In Negative Reinforcement a particular behavior is strengthened by the consequence of the stopping or avoiding of a negative condition.

A submissive is placed in a cage and immediately receives a mild electrical shock on his testicles. The shock is a negative condition for the sub. The submissive places himself into a particular slave presentation position, and again the shock stops. The behavior of being in a slave presentation position is strengthened by the (positive)consequence of the stopping of the shock.

 

  1. Being ignored by Mistress is a negative condition for most submissives. The submissive misbehaves and Mistress punishes which could be a more positive consequence than being ignored. The next day the submissive again makes a mistake, and Mistress punishes. Now the behavior of making a mistake is strengthened by the consequence of Mistress paying attention. This way of conditioning can also create predicaments as here the submissive would choose the better of two negatives. Quite the mindfucks!

 

Punishment is the opposite of  reinforcement, and weakens a behavior because a negative stimulus is introduced/experienced as a consequence of the unwanted behavior.
