Discipline & Punishment – Authority of Visitors To Assist
The Naked House Boy is required to comply with all rules and commands and is subject to punishment for disobedience or failure to meet expectations. Discipline is usually by means of spanking, and unless it is deferred the spanking takes place immediately regardless of who may be present and could observe. Since the boy has no right to privacy while he serves, it follows that he should earn no right to privacy for misbehaving.
Most House Boys are obedient and cooperative and rarely earn punishment, and when they do make a mistake they accept the consequence of punishment with quiet resignation. The naked boy will assume the spanking position despite the embarrassment of being on display to whoever is present and he accepts the assigned number of swats because he knows that he deserves them. About half of the boys who have served here never even receive a spanking, because they strive so hard to serve their Master to perfection.
Some House Boys, however, have difficulty controlling their brattiness and act out in ways that bring discipline. It may not be their intention to push things to that point – or maybe subconsciously it is – but either way, once a violation is reported it is the Master’s responsibility to help the boy get back on track by seeing to it that the boy is properly disciplined. It is these same boys who are more likely to try to delay, distract, or otherwise avoid an impending spanking.
Whenever any House Boy attempts to avoid, delay, or otherwise prevent a spanking from beIng administered he is subject to having the punishment carried out by force. Houseguests are authorized to provide assistance in the carrying out of discipline despite the boy’s verbal or physical resistance, and regardless of which of the boy’s body parts need to be grasped, squeezed, held, or moved to ensure compliance.
In the example photo, a House Boy was assigned a Level One Spanking (bare-hand) and tried to talk the Master out of the punishment by pleading for a ‘second chance’. Some of the Master’s younger house guests immediately stood up and surrounded the boy on three sides to show unity with the Master’s decision to discipline. When the boy suddenly ran to his room, the guests followed and pinned the boy to his bed and commenced punishment before the Master could even make it to the bedroom. Since the spanking is a Level One which is bare-handed, the Master appreciates their assistance in carrying out discipline. It does not matter that the guests appear to be having a good time in administering the spanking because the punishment wasn’t assigned for entertainment – it was assigned because the boy broke a rule – so the Master will not concern himself with judging the reasons why guests choose to visit or provide assistance.
When spanking with an implement (Level Two) or Restraints (Level Three) are assigned, visitors are only authorized to hold the boy in position for a spanking until the Master is ready to commence the discipline. This is also true for all Enhanced Punishments which require insertions, such as figging (See Rule #74 below).
In the example above, this House Boy is subject to additional punishment for Insubordination. The Master will take into consideration the opinions of other witnesses before deciding on more punishment. Sometimes a guest will volunteer to mentor the boy to earn cooperation in lieu of discipline, and the Master will consider these offers before additional punishment is decided upon.
