Can being disciplined improve communication between couples during conflicts?

Yes. After I am thoroughly spanked to tears, it’s a good time to have a conversation with my husband about why I was spanked and what can be done to improve behavior that leads to conflict.

My husband have my full attention by putting me on his knees while we talk or have the conversation during “aftercare” and he make sure I am listening and paying attention to him. If I am not paying attention another spanking will certainly make me to listen and pay attention to him.

The conflict will be resolved and communication will be flowing… and I feel better after the conversation and will undoubtedly want to show my gratitude for him for taking the time to discipline.

In this way I become a good girl after I been well spanked.

After married for so many years we found something that we can talk about and enjoy it too. Many married couples found that they have run out of things to talk about but with domestic discipline there are so many things to talk about like wants and needs, feelings, etc.

Yes, I've definitely found this to be true. One of our rules is that I'm never allowed to argue. I'm free to disagree, but I need to do what I'm told and follow directions. My girlfriend is very good about considering my feelings and opinions and she certainly isn't a tyrant, but ultimately I have to defer to her leadership and direction. If I ever feel like something really needs to change or be done differently than we have an "appeal process" where we sit down and have a real conversation, but that is kindof a special ritual unto itself for us. No matter how strongly I might disagree or feel in any particular moment or with any particular situation I'm still expected to allow her to make the decisions and take charge, or at least be of the utmost respect if I choose to voice my disagreement. My input in the moment is always taken into consideration and balanced so I've never felt like I've been shut out of my own relationship or emotionally taken advantage of in that way. There have been times I have been punished appropriately for attempting to violate her authority by being disrespectful or not doing as I'm told, and then afterwards we go through our "appeal process" and we agree to change something I felt like needed to be changed or to come to a compromise. I feel like this is totally fair, because in those cases I'm being punished for my attitude and how I acted, not because I disagreed and wanted to do something different.

I the receiver certainly pays attention to the giver. I question if it produces a correction in one's behavior is or not.

There are spankings for fun and sexual excitement, the alternative is a severe spanking that produces tears.

Yes, especially if there is a need or want for it especially if both spank each other

Our disciplinary secessions are not for "pleasure", but to correct my activities or attitude. We live in a FLM for many years and my wife makes virtually all of the decisions. Some issues she might ask my opinion, but makes the final call, once decided, she cannot be countermanded by me. After bringing throughly spanked by the leather belt we will discuss the issue at length, with me apologizing and begging her forgiveness, because I upset her to the point that she felt that she had to use corporal punishment, something she is usually reluctant to do. I am infrequently punished, as her discipline over the years has served its intended purpose in correcting my erratic behavior. There are still infrequent issues with my attitude that sometimes necessitates her to tie me to our bed and deploy the belt. In our post discipline conversations when she has my full, undivided attention, makes it perfectly clear that she expects a positive change in my attitude towards her and to cut out my snappy comments sometimes make in response to hers. To confirm any possible misunderstanding on my part that the punishment might be a preliminary event prior to sex, I am kept in denial for a week or two.

We find these post disciplinary conversations to be very open, with nothing held back and I am usually the primary benefactor, as she "is never wrong".

Play spanking is one thing, but physical assault or verbal abuse is not acceptable.

@JJM It would depend if it is consensual between participants. Which this is what kink/fetish experiences are about.
