Domestic Discipline
Domestic Discipline, or simply DD, is discipline (the enforcement of
order, usually by punishment for infringement of rules applied) in a
domestic context, normally between members of a
household.
In the generally voluntary context of adult relationships, it is
specifically applied to the practice of interspousal
discipline, in BDSM and some similar
relationship styles, frequently with an emphasis on spanking as a
punishment. Practitioners often argue that domestic
discipline is distinct from both domestic abuse, and activities such as
erotic spanking and BDSM-style
dominance and submission.
Ideally, DD is the loving, consistent use of discipline as a positive
way to enhance communication, deepen intimacy and reinforce relationship
commitment. The discipline would normally include physical punishment
but centres around rules of behaviour laid down by one party and
nominally agreed to by the other.
It is often seen as a stylised form of
traditional relationship intended to help the woman overcome negative
behaviours that harm herself, her relationship or others. In creating
loving limits to her behaviour and firm consequences for harmful
activities, it aims to improve the relationship over time and
demonstrates a loving connection to and physical correction from a
caring partner.
Commonly in a heterosexual relationship, the disciplined is
the woman and the disciplinary is the man but this need not be the case.
Switching is unusual in a DD relationship though it does occur.See also
