Guide to this blog
The Blogroll is now in three parts. The main part is arranged according to the date the blog was last updated with the most recent first. Many blogs use the BDSMLR platform which does not include date information; they are in a separate Blogroll arranged alphabetically but I check from time to time and remove any that have been permanently closed. The final part is a list of interesting Twitter feeds - again in alphabetical order.

Royal startle
Genuinely heard on the radio this morning as once again (yawn) the forthcoming royal wedding is the discussion point....
"I wonder if Kate will promise to obey him in the wedding vows?"
"Well if she doesn't, he should put her straight across his knee..."
I wasn't planning to watch but if this was a real possibility I'm sure there would be a lot more viewers!

Favourite for April
Following on from my last rant, I thought this would make a good favourite for April. Taken from Janus 62 this photostory featured one of the most credible schoolgirl canings they ever ran.
Marjorie Jenkins looked every bit the cute petite teenage schoolgirl she was meant to represent - she was dressed properly for school and appeared genuinely frightened to find herself in the headmaster's office for a caning which she had clearly never experienced before. The headmaster was stern and unrelenting - she had to bend over properly without even the benefit of a table or chair back to help her, and her short skirt was moved out of the way. This wasn't one of those scenes with lots of not very hard cane strokes - he gave her a straightforward traditional six of the best that had her fighting back the tears. He then humiliated her further by making her take her knickers down so he could see the effect of the caning and then ordered her to get out of the office. There's a great image of her looking very tearful running for door - something I can't recall seeing in any other similar photo sequence. It's short (one the the perceived benefits of corporal punishment in school for both sides was that it was quickly over with) and she played the role superbly. Having just dug out the relevant back issue I'll post a lower resolution version of the full sequence in a day or so.

Little things that go wrong in CP Movies
Like many (not all) who are into the CP scene, I have a particular liking for schoolgirl themes. Okay, let’s get the usual disclaimers out of the way – I do not want to see real underage schoolgirls being given corporal punishment – I’m talking about consenting adults dressing as and role playing situations with a school based theme. In the great scheme of things that might be classed as a minority kink, but it clearly isn’t a small minority given the amount of photo and video material in the category that is out there.
There’s enough to cater for a diverse range of tastes within the genre. My own personal liking is for maximum realism – that probably does put me into a very tiny minority because, for example, if the scene is depicting a head teacher punishing a naughty girl, I’d prefer the punishment to be administered to her normally clothed. I’m happy to accept that if she’s wearing a very short skirt and has to bend over, the punishment might be on her knickers but I’d prefer her not to be made to take the knickers down at the time. There’s plenty of scope for her going off to the loos afterwards to pull them down to take a look at the damage, or getting a follow up punishment at home where it is a little more credible that she might be punished on the bare.
I accept, as I’ve already said, that puts me into a very small minority and I’m not pretending I can’t enjoy scenes where the girl gets her punishment bare bottom. There are a number of other little details that, from my perspective, reduce the authenticity of the scene. For example...
• “Schoolgirls” being punished in the headmaster’s office wearing stiletto heels – in the real world, I’ve seen some quite daring takes on school uniforms in terms of shortness of skirts, unfastened blouse buttons etc. but stilettos? Give me a break!
• “Schoolgirls” being punished in the headmaster’s office who have turned up with no shoes on at all. Okay, so if you’re going to put a girl over you knee for a spanking you don’t want a kick in the face for your troubles but at least make her remove the shoes.
• “Schoolgirls” with tattoos – I’m no fan of tattoos anyway, but if a girl has very obvious tattoos then maybe they should be in a different scenario to the schoolgirl one.
• Smoke drifting in front of the camera lens because the cameraman is smoking – it’s possibly even worse than the odd stray intervention from a microphone or a second camera.
• Spankees who bare their bottom for a punishment and it’s already showing the marks from a recent punishment although there hasn’t been one in the story. To me, that’s just lazy film making. If you want people to buy a video, pay the girl enough that she can “rest” for long enough before the day of the shoot that she’s not still bearing the marks from the last one.
• Caners who hold the cane half way along – if you want it to hurt less, use a shorter cane. It’s just poor technique.
• A similar issue when the caner delivers strokes that travel barely six inches and wouldn’t hurt a fly. That was never the idea of a head teacher or teacher giving a caning to a recalcitrant pupil.
• Caners who give the girl a warm-up spanking first, for much the same reason. In real life in schools they did not really want to be kind and make it easy. Of course, if they were going to make it more realistic by caning over underwear at least, they could give a warm-up off-camera and we’d be none the wiser
• Teachers, and most especially head teachers, who are in casual dress. Of course some teachers do go to work dressed more casually – the trouble is that they’re likely to be the more progressive ones who don’t believe in corporal punishment in the first place.
There are ways around many of these by including an explanation in the plot – for example of why the figure of authority happens to not be formally dressed on this occasion, or how the girl’s bottom is marked because her father thrashed her last night. But just ignoring the issues lessens the credibility.

Good old Facebook
It isn't the story I responded to with this one - rather sad really that someone has probably thrown away his career and reputation like this. What I liked was the after the headline DOCTOR ACCUSED OF SMACKING PATEINTS' BOTTOMS, Facebook has usefully added a button inviting you to be the first of your friends to recommend this. I have to say, I don't - I really don't!
