FLR relationships come in many forms and of course many do not use corporal punishment. However, I would suggest the two individuals should discuss what happens if the submissive partner does not meet expectations. Will there be physical or non-physical punishments? The answer depends on the two individuals. I have had one formal FLR relationship that lasted nearly a year. It was agreed upon that physical punishment was an option she could use. Typically I am always on good behavior as its my nature to always want to please the Lady. However, one time I was very late in picking her up from work. I wasn’t really busy just lost track of time which is not normal for me. Well, I was severely spanked/whipped with various implements and let’s just say the welts made it very difficult to sit for a week. And I was never late ever again after that! Also, she never had to do that during our year long relationship again. The one time was enough for me as I am not a masochist. There were other spankings during our relationship but I would put those more in the play category. Oh, by the way, even though that relationship is long over I still whenever I need to be somewhere immediately put a reminder in my iPhone with plenty of pre-notification warning to get there in time. All because of that spanking/whipping that is still in my mind. So everyone else in my life can thank her…LOL. I learned a lot in that FLR and I do understand the benefits of corporal punishment if the two agree to it. I would certainly be open to having that in my future FLR agreements. Although non-physical punishments can work really well too.
