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.

Favourite for January

First of all, let me wish all readers a very Happy New Year - especially the likes of Old Tom and Targetarear who go to so much trouble to provide feedback and comment.

Then on to business!
I love the classical honesty and simplicity of this image.  It does look about as close as it gets to how a schoolgirl might have looked bending over a desk to be caned across her bottom - no ridiculously short miniskirt (although nowadays it would probably be considerably shorter than this as fashion dictates), no stiletto heels, no unrealistic pigtails and no "adjustment" of her attire.  Okay, I like it as much as anyone when we are shown an attractive girl getting it across her panties or her bare bottom, but there is something about this that suggest rather more authenticity.  Obviously it was pretty unusual for girls to get caned across their bottoms (sadly) in the days when corporal punishment was used in British schools, but it wasn't something that never happened and it would most probably have looked something like this on those precious few occasions.  And anyone who thinks that because she has her knickers and a pleated skirt for protection, it's not going to be very effective and painful has clearly never been on the wrong end of a properly delivered caning over their normal attire.

To be honest, until 2014, neither had I, but then I decided that - although my primary interest is to be on the giving side - I needed to know more about what it would feel like before I can seriously contemplate going out there and finding some female interested in consenting to be punished by me.  My first experience then, of being caned across the seat of my trousers was not at school but rather too many years later in 2014.  And it bloody hurt!  My very sincere thanks to the lovely young lady who has been helping me with that exploration.  Now we'll have to see what 2015 brings!

First of all Happy New Year to you James and to all your followers. Many thanks for all your hard work and excellent taste which is much appreciated. Thanks too for a mention at the top of your post. My word! Fame at last! Come on Targetarear shall we take a bow together?
Now on to the wonderful photograph. Sadly the feel of a cane hitting my young bottom was by no means an infrequent experience. That young lady's pleated skirt should offer more protection than a tightly drawn pair of trousers but she will discover that a good caning hurts (as it should) even over a couple of layers of clothing. I do know two women who were caned like that at school so it did happen if infrequently. Frankly I am unconvinced that today's protracted sanctions are somehow better than the smart of the cane. For a start they seem terribly time consuming to me as I observe from a distance. The speed with which a caning may be administered is far more cost efficient. Anyhow that young lady will smart but not as much as a boy would have...not with that pleated skirt. Equality fails even there.

Happy New Year to all, f it's not too late to say that. (And thanks for the name-check James).

I'd take a bow as you suggest Old Tom, but somebody might creep up behind me with a cane in their hand.

I'd have to agree with you that the 'short sharp shock'approach applied with a cane or slipper when we were schoolboys did do the trick most of the time. It didn't alter the behaviour of the die hards, who would show off their marks as a sort of badge of honour, but it certainly kept the rest of us quiet (though I was on the receiving end of a size 12 plimsioll more than once).

Like you James, I like this picture for its authenticity and I only wish that the makers of spanking videos would come up with a few more videos that didn't feature bare-bottom canings of 'schoolgirls' wearing stockings and suspenders and high-heeled shoes (thoughlike you, I'm quite partial to those).

Sadly, that is even less likely now that our Government has decided to ban all home-made videos of this sort.

I was caned only twice at school, once on the hand (which hurt the most) and once on my bottom. But over the last couple of years I've been attending spanking parties where as well as spanking some very attractive young ladies, the men can also 'receive' from an expert with the dreaded rattan. She can deliver a light to full force caning depending on taste. (I'm working my way up the scale of severity).

Anyway, I hope you'll keep posting through the coming year James. Your posts are alway interesting and thought-provoking and all the more so because unlike most bloggers you don't post every day just for the sake of it.

Targetarear you and James must have been very good boys at school. I certainly don't think of myself as a die hard but I have ben caned on the hands and rear end more times than I care to remember and as for the slipper that number is beyond count. Perhaps I was just unlucky or had one of those faces that invite the irritation of the teacher. Old Tom

When it comes to sexual and erotic excitement, there is nothing more visual, then a knickers down female bare bottom, wearing suspender-belt and stockings, being CANED. And probably that feeling goes for 99% percent of us SPANKO'S.

Hello sixofthebest

I don't for one moment doubt that you are correct and that if I had published this photograph alongside one as you describe and asked people to vote for their favourite, your would have won hands down. However I think there are a significant number of people like myself and Targetarear who would like to see more realistic and credible depictions of schoolgirl punishments. Of course our stupid new government policy makes it difficult for anyone in the UK to make spanking porn these days so we're probably left to rely on those based elsewhere.

Hello sixofthebest.

Like James, I like seeing the bare-bottom stuff too, but I also like to see the 'real thing' depicted now and again.

I believe that if spanking websites published a few 'realistic' videos (say one in every ten) they'd be surpirsed how many hits (oops! pardon the pun) those videos received.

And as I think I've mentioned in other comments on James' site, for those who like to see the young lady's knickers lowered, her bare bottom displayed and her marks shown, there can still be the trip to the washroom or wherever for that.

As an aside, there is one thing I dislike intensely about bare bottom cp videos and that is the way so many of them show the girls' intimate parts.

I agree with James. Sorry sixofthebest.

Hurrah for authenticity as much as people like fantasy, if we're going to recreate the kind of spanking image we knew, let's keep it like that.

Excellent James, & I also love authenticity. This illustrates the British schoolgirl scene & your narrative describes it so well as always. Great photo.

Growing up in Atlanta, Georgia 1960s, we gotten the paddle at school over clothes. My sister & me never actually gotten punished at school, but corporal punishment at home was harsh & routine: our mom was a strict, loving, Christian, God-fearing Southern mom who never spared the rod. The young moms were always talking about smacked bottoms & the church folk all seemed to be advocating it back in yore.

"Why do you always pull my panties down for the cane mommy?"

"Because it is punishment, Brenda!"

Oh yeah, protective clothing gotten adjusted for spankings at home : my very own childhood botty smacker in the 1960s/70s was a thin, flexible, quality piece of rattan cane (the switch) kept in the cupboard & we always gotten it on our bare buttocks with our 1950s cotton, white knickers pulled down to our knees (never off) in the living room James. Or alternatively PJs down in the bedroom.

I always stress that this bare bottom whipping was completely normal in our house & most houses. Oh my! The Church advocated it as integral to Christian Family values. Although the belt was more frequently used in our friends' houses, rather than a cane. Although my mom gotten a few of the new church moms to acquire a cane for their young daughters. She would show moms my cane at coffee mornings at our house & she would stress that knickers must be pulled down for salutary, loving chastisement on bare backsides in front of God!!
I was embarrassed & excited to see the moms picturing my naked, chubby, whiter-than-alabaster-white bot bending over the sofa awaiting the "rod of correction". All the moms agreed, naturally ! Maybe that's the difference between Southern USA & UK, already, James ?!! Oh my! ha-ha!

Me being born 1959, it was only normal & automatic for our stern, kind mom to award a baker's dozen to our bare botty skins with that dreaded cane. Why not, pray ? It is proper punishment as my mother scarily & bluntly used to tell me ad infinitum (see my quote above !!) She did not think anything of it, she just pulled down our knickers & whooped away with the whippy-stick when we gotten naughty. Oh my! There was no snowflake, wishy-washy nonsense or timeouts in 1960s suburban Atlanta !!! and CP is still prevalent today, James.

Our whuppin's were traumatic but harmless but I gotten to be a responsible, accountable, considerate citizen & so for sure, & I raised my own two daughters' (80s/90s) with that same trusty lil' cane on their bare backsides from an early age. Yes, it was real harsh...but also fair. No naughty steps, wokey-woke discipline for my girls needed, James, just well-tanned bottoms!

My girls are now mid-30s & staunchly pro-spanking. They tell me the sensitive, fairest-white skin on their botties has recovered from my cane. Wow, no surprise, my own bottom-skin did too, already !! All swell. And like myself, they regard corporal punishment in kind, traditional homes as good parenting & just normal. I guess we Southern belles all see it as normal, which is kinda cute in its own special way.
Thank you for your awesome Blog, James.
Kind regards,
Brenda xx
