In a BDSM context, "discipline" most often refers to the punishments imposed by the dominant on the submissive for breaking a rule, or to the overall regimen of control enforced by a D/S relationship.
In consensual spanking, discipline typically refers to the spanking act, which means spankee and spanker are playing with the ideas of rules and punishment. Typically, the spankee may break a "rule", knowing this will cause the spanker to initiate a spanking session. While discipline can have many contexts, discipline in a family setting is a common one. In a household, punishment and spanking is called domestic discipline.
