Whipping

From Kinktionary @ Social Kink

Definition

Beating a submissive in a controlled manner as a form of impact play. Can be done softly to an area repeatedly to make the skin sensitive. Can be used in a disciplinary manner or as a playful practice.

Safety Concerns

When participating in this type of play, one should be careful not to strike the kidneys, neck, face, anywhere especially sensitive that the submissive cannot handle. The front of the body can be struck lightly with care, depending on the level of comfort. Bruising, bleeding, etc. can result from whipping.
