Coming of age

Today marks 18 years since I started this blog. A lot has changed in that time. I decided to mark the event by adding a photo I saw in one of the first copies of Janus I ever got my hands on. It was Volume 9 Number 4, which they acclaimed as their 100th edition. It had a feature about spanking scenes in mainstream movies, and it featured this image.

It depicts June Allyson getting an OTK spanking in the film Too Young To Kiss. Or rather, it is a staged publicity photo supposedly depicting a scene from the movie. The actual scene isn't quite as good. He's just climbed out of a swimming pool and is not wearing a suit. She's in PJs and a dressing gown and doesn't have the cute ankle socks, but on the plus side, he does wallop her with a slipper.

That photo set me off on a lifelong quest to find spankings in mainstream movies, and even 'though I know this picture was faked, it remains one of my all-time favourite images.

Chinese videos

If, like me, you were fascinated by the series of videos that appeared on YouTube featuring young people in China playing games (originally Rock - Paper -Scissors but then sometimes using dice) that resulted in the losers getting whacked by the winners (previously discussed here and here), you were probably a bit disappointed a few months back when the videos dried up as quickly as they had first appeared. You may not, therefore, have noticed that a new group has appeared under the name dongdongqiang which has picked up the theme again.

I'm pretty sure they're all new - one seemed very close to a plot I had seen before, but the video quality is better than previous ones, the majority have the option of English Language subtitles, most are between 8 and 9 minutes long and a new video is posted just about every day. If anything, they're hitting harder than before.

If you want a quick taste of what is out there, then wait no longer...

Favourite for January - Happy New Year!

Rachel begged the headmistress not to phone her mother to seek permission to administer a severe caning - she knew fine well that her mother would agree. But worse than that she would want to know why so then she'd know about her daughter's shameful behaviour as well. It had just been a panic reaction. She was accused and lied to deflect blame two others. As a result, two innocent girls had been caned, but now the truth was out. Worst of all she was forced to listen to the headmistress detailing how the two girls had each received four strokes of the cane on their hands for something that was entirely Rachels' doing.  The headmistress explained at length that she had no option but to give Rachel eight strokes of the senior cane across her bottom. Rachel had never heard of anyone getting such a severe punishment and having never been caned before, she was terrified.
