Play punishment is a specific type of punishment used in a BDSM relationship to spark an erotic encounter. Unlike traditional BDSM punishments, play punishments result from trivial misdeeds rather than from true behavioural infractions. While pain may be an element of play punishment, it is not usually too intense or severe. Play punishment is also sometimes called funishment, a portmanteau of "fun" and "punishment. Play punishment may be administered to the submissive for a minor misstep, such as overcooking dinner or forgetting to address their dominant as sir or ma'am. A play punishment does not look to correct these behaviours; instead this type of punishment often serves as an act of foreplay and a way to build connection between the submissive and dominant.
