What Does Spanking Mean to You?

I'm surprised how quiet this thread is. Is it embarrassing?

@Virginia, it really shouldn't be so quiet because it's a very direct and upfront question. Realize that it means so.many different things to different people. I'm just interested in hearing how spanking is integrated in other people's lives

Spanking a woman on her bare bottom, is for me a most sexual and erotic experience. Giving her a spanking with my hand, paddle, hairbrush, birch rod, or cane, is a delightful pleasure.

@Six, I couldn't tree agree more. What's just as good sometimes is even overhearing a spanking I'm progress or witnessing it as a hidden voyeur. Talk about pure bliss

Not at all...for me, there is a bit of how I feel in every story I post here. I would imagine that goes for most of the authors.

So let's hear from the readers......

This certainly true for me. One of the reasons I write is because I can't talk about these things in the main stream world. As for spanking itself, for me it's two things. First submission, both giving and accepting it. Giving it is a type of freedom because you are no longer responsible for what happens. Accepting it from someone else gives you power over them. The trick is not abusing that power, respecting limits is very important. Second is after care. The spanking itself is always more painful than what I recall from the last one, Being cared for by loving hands is what turns me on.

It's the strangest thing!
I think about spanking in one way or another every day and yet never, or at least very very rarely, experience it.
I frequently engineer situations that encourage females to light heartedly scold me.
It's amazing how easy this is to do but equally infuriating how hard it is to get to the point where actual physical chastisement is threatened.
The simplest thing can turn my thoughts to TWWDT, such as a lady simply sitting down on a straight backed chair or a situation on TV that, with a little bit if thought, can be turned into a possible spanking situation.
I can easily imagine myself across the knee of every female I see and do so extremely regularly.
The thought only lasts a few seconds and very often makes me smile as I inwardly tell myself off.
It's never going to happen of course, but the thought itself is quite satisfying, and all of those ladies carry on with their lives, blissfully unaware that I just imagined them walloping me.

It just goes to show that you never know how those around you age thinking as tysout just pointed out. I find myself having similar scenarios play out in my mind about sweating so many different female bottoms that I come I'm contact with on a daily basis. It's a cool little game that I like to play in my head, imagining who's into spanking; if they had just been spanked recently; what they'd sound Ike during a trip over my knee. I'm a guy with a very vivid imagination, so I find it to be an absolutely delicious. Maybe that's just me.

It's a huge turn-on both because of the submission and also the aftercare, which almost always includes sexual touch. I'm just so glad to know I'm not alone in getting turned on by it (though this site makes me think I should just move to England, lol!)

Unfortunately August I fear the ratio of 'spanko' to 'non spanko' is the same wherever you go.
However, having said, that I also feel that there's a wind of change blowing and the general outlook for people like us is very fair indeed.
Certainly things have never been better for the younger generation and the 'scene' has definitely exploded on-line, and to a lesser degree in the media in general.
There are some who would argue that TWWDT becoming more mainstream is a bad thing but I'm not one of them.
You are absolutely not alone; there are thousands out there just like you and perhaps it's time to stop worrying about what other people might think.
Brave words indeed from a man who's kept his little kink secret for fifty odd years but even I'm beginning to think...ah to hell with it, who cares who knows.
Will I do anything about it?...probably not...but I can dream.
