BDSM is sexual play, and such punishments are not carried out in a real world context, as said before, in that BDSM activities are predetermined, the scenes are made up, and none of it is carried out due to any real misbehavior of the submissive to any actual, real rule. There are "rules" separate from the BDSM scene, such as the safeword being used to signal an unwillingness to continue, and not doing a specific activity, which makes one uncomfortable, and then there are rules in the context of the play which are set to be broken and punished, these are the "play rules".

In BDSM discipline, punishments given are meant to derive pleasure from the psychological aspect of being inferior, by having to be "taught" and punished like a child or animal, as well as the vulnerability, rejection, and humiliation the "sub" may feel when being punished, and the humility and vulnerability the "sub" may feel after "learning" to overcome their feelings of inferiority and reconcile with the dominant by apologizing and emotionally accepting the punishment for their perceived wrong. One thing the two activities have in common is that there are

Rules are usually set and agreed upon by the dominant and the submissive before the beginning of any BDSM scene and/or situation, and can also be used to help make the sub feel inferior, or for "training" a novice sub, though such is not always the case and rules can be set by the dominant for reasons both pertaining to the scene (such as

Punishments in BDSM are carried out with the consent of both the dominant and the submissive.
