We deliberately picked a vintage picture to start this article, since it is such a wonderful presentation of what “presentation” will do, mentally especially.

There she is, on her knees, in the corner, the area – designated for a soon to follow punishment – exposed and the punishment instrument next to her, for her to look at and fear for.

Actively having to cooperate in her own demise is one of the most intense things for a submissive – especially when the dominant makes it very clear that is what she is supposed to do. The most effective, intense, non-verbal way to do that is by requiring her to present herself – in this case present her behind for whatever is to follow next.

Most submissive women who dream about spanking will dream about being spanked with their butt high up in the air. Or simply having to kneel down, butt up! That is a fantasy that frequently remains untouched, because not that many dominants are aware of it and quite a few subs forget to tell him about it.

Dressed or undressed

Quite a few BDSM couples make the mistake to go for undressing, way to early in the scene. By doing that you are depriving yourself of some of the best and most intense foreplay moments.

Don’t undress her, but instead require her to be fully dressed, but stand in the corner to await further use or punishment but …….. tell her to lift her skirt, expose her behind and keep it that way. You’ll miss some of the best mental agony there is. She just has to stand there and wait – thinking her behind will soon be used.

Leave her like that for a while. Quite a while if you like. Enjoy the view. You want pleasure, well, this is pleasure. Is she to be caned or spanked later? Well, we can assure that will be twice as intents with probably half the effort of you introduce the presentation and waiting game in your active play.
If you are into age play, well, it just doesn’t get any better. Why do you think the old English schools used an extremely short punishment dress? Mary Quant didn’t event the mini-skirt. English school principals did, two ages before Miss Quant was actually born. Why not take advantage of that technique and use it in your own erotic power exchange scenes?

This is what mind-fucking is all about. Playing with her fantasies and fears. Introducing sugar and vinegar the mental way. Subtly, yet very effective.

Presentation during punishment

To intensify things even more, she can be ordered to stand – and remain – on her toes, pushing her punished behind up further into the air, closer to the instrument of punishment, providing an even better target. In other wise, actively making it easier for the dom to punish her.

This is not easy to do and extra cruel, since it requires concentration. This diminishes her ability to drift away on the pain impulses, but instead she must at least keep her head together, enough to make sure she maintains the position. That is what makes a punishment a punishment and an erotic trip for her. It is knowing about subtle, yet effective things like this that separates the experienced dominant from the newbee

Example: No helpful restraints during this spanking. Instead, the submissive is expected to stick her butt out so it is easier to punish her and again she cannot (fully) drift away on the endorphins high and if she reaches subspace at all, it’ll be only a mild form of subspace, with insufficient hormonal effects to swallow the pain with the help of the rush. As a result, there will be more effect and she will have more to remember, since she actually was there, which – at least in the mental sense of the word – is not always the case if the submissive is allowed to fully drift away into subspace.

This is exactly what the difference between real punishment and erotic punishment is.Erotic punishment is fun – real punishment is something to remember (which will eventually create it’s own fun – but in a totally different way).
