Spanking: Classic Or Dud?

This forum has reached rock bottom.

You will have a rock bottom after too many spankings.

In that case (hitting rock bottom): DUD. Spanking's only good when there's some cushion. Still don't understand the homoerotic hypocrisy re: sports & fanny slaps. But that's another issue.

I can't see getting a severe paddling doing much for my libido, regardless of who held the paddle. And I do NOT understand fraternity / sorority obsessions with paddling. And the paddle machine in school was a bitch. Therefore, severe paddling gets a 9.5 on the DUD scale. (The Russian judge, he likes it. Those wacky Communists...)

Gore Vidal:
I advocate the bringing back of the birch , but only between consenting adults.

Its sad when one is not into a fetisah to see poepl ehwo are. I just think "how can it sbe good?"

Spanking your kids: CLASSIC Spanking for kinky sexiness in the bed: DUD.

Spanking, pffff. Try real abuse sometime, bastards. Punching, kicking, biting, that sort of thing.

Equation of consensual s and m with domestic abuse = a very dodgy Dud, I think.

At the free-jazz picnic I forgot to mention to one and all that the SM Pride march and meet was happening just DOWN THE ROAD (in the Conway Hall, to be precise).

The half dozen ppl I know — only know a bit — whose sexuality is SM rather than, y'know, homo, het etc, are all gentle, friendly Tops. Very sorted as to who they are and what they want: the most committed (aged mid-60s, whips for a living) is a sweetheart, tho actually a little dull as a person. Perhaps cuz he's so unjudgmental? Bottoms are by all accts a heap more difficult to deal with, very controlling and sly.

Spanking = GRATE as device in fan fiction. "Damon's/Giles's/Janeaway's red little buttocks shivered and squirmed as Jarvis/ Willow/7of9..." etc etc (but is this because it's hot, or just because it's hilarious?) I have zero experience of spanking in RL, save one sharp no-fun leg-slap from Mrs Boyce when five, and as of this moment plan getting no further.

(Mrs Boyce = my first ever teacher, but as I don't know her first name, I can't work her into my porn name nohow...)

I'm, um, NOT equating it with domestic abuse, Tom. I'm saying it's not even remotely real S&M. It's dull uninteresting safe bullshit.

But I'm fucked up anyhow, keep on about boarding school paddles.

Snobbery re. "safety" and "vanilla" among S/M dabblers = even bigger Dud ;)

But sorry for misunderstanding, Ally. It's an equation I've come across before (and is scarier for obviously containing a grain of truth)

Didn't Mick Farren "create" the Julie Burchill we know and love by luring her aged 17 into his whip-kissed web of sin? T.Parsons saw the bruises jumped over a desk, punched MF (who immediately EMIGRATED: some punch), whisked JB off to be his ladylove and winsome bride? She spends the next [x] years slapping at horrible hippies in print. Then post-divorce sniping between her and TP just gets TOO boring, and she resurrects MF as the real love of her life compared to vanilla TP (in print again: MF is far away, and she of course is proto-goff dark-eyed skinny lovely no more...)

It's a tragedy! It's a comedy! It's...

Nor is this the only SM in the rock-press story I know, but the one I remember next best — which features [male: no hints given], as dog on a leash walked by [female: no hints given], both all in rubber – relates to someone that unlinked sad things later happened to...

Is it worse to spank or to let kids run amok?

Problem is, it's not an either/or. Spanked kids may very well run amok.

Discipline != spanking. Never that cut & dry. (Forgive me, Tom, if I'm stepping on your toes. Unless you like that sort of thing, you cheeky monkey...)

WHat about threatening your kids with the music of Puff Daddy if they act up?

That's just wrong. Stop, drop, & roll.

I'm not saying it's right or wrong, I just like spanking kids. Little fuckers.

Housemate's bedroom directly next to living room. Late nite TV = impossible because of slappppy soundz emanating. Rises above even bedroom ghetto blaster. I always wonder if it's Lydia getting slapped or "Bun", her boyfriend. Lydia's hairbrush now endowed with creepy significance and I will not deign to touch it.

Yuck. Why don't they have kids or something? What are they doing? Practicing?

Tracer, move out quick.

Spanking's too good for some of the assholes I know. Now, if we could only start a thread about disembowelment or castration with rusty garden tools ...

Are rusty garden tools a common sexual fetish? What a sheltered life I have led...

I think they're only good if you have regular tetanus shots.

"regular tetanus shots" = hilarious device to introduce into fan fiction: "dickon's pale armflesh wobbled and squirmed as tori..." etc

Slap the cuffs on our Julie? My dear Mark S., you perceive but the vulgar fraction. Spanking is a classic dud, but decadence always a higher calling. Now I hit submit to post. It's all in the language, dog. -- Mick Farren

Ooooooh.

"At a first glance you might mistake it for smoke, for it was grey and you could see things through it. But the deathly smell was not the smell of smoke... It was roughly the shape of a man but had the head of a bird..."

I was spanked last night

Taking sides: alternative sexualities vs alternative musics. Or - can the fetish scene really produce no better band than the Genitorturers??
