The word "punish"

Ever since I read the word "punish " in r18 comics, it became a kinly word to me. 'Cause whenever I read that in any manga/hwa/ua, the first thing that comes to my mind is the kinky things that they'll do. Like, I take the word as a joke now or in a kinky way (˙ᵕ˙ ) Lmaooo even if it's a serious scene, I can't take it seriously. Sorry, my bad.

There's definitely a stronger word than "punish," right?

And does anyone also think like me xD
