Bangkok report

While I'm living it up in Bangkok - Sin City - I wonder if anyone reading this has ever explored the world of the Demonia Club (formerly The Cave).

The initial impression is that in any interesting version of "anything goes" Bangkok, what is described as a fetish club is largely concerned with BDSM which is a bit on the edge of my personal area of interests.



The place seems to offer a mixture of traditional Bangkok fayre - bars full of girls there largely to satisfy the whim of almost entirely male customer-base, (vis-a-vis the website lists prices to buy drinks for the girls which is the standard way to pay for their attentions), plus a sex show with a BDSM slant, plus the suggestion that you can take part on either side.



The setup clearly has a very strong BDSM look to it and may be rather to heavy for many readers to be actively interested in exploring.

However, explore a little further and it does seem to offer some "scenes" that I for one find an interest in. The website shows a number of such scenes as seen below.


The girl in red seems to feature on the receiving end several times. I suppose I'm thinking it looks like I might find about 10% of the action interesting, but I'm fascinated to know two things - is it really possible to get involved at this place, and is there anywhere around that's run on similar lines but more to our tastes?

The website says "Based in Bangkok, Thailand. Demonia specializes in Fetishes, BDSM, the bizarre, the imaginative and the erotic for men, women and couples. At Demonia you come to find a Mistress or submissive, with whom you can play out your fantasy, or just watch the athmosphere (sic) and enjoy real bondage in Bangkok."

Can anyone shed any light on what it's like? I've walked past a couple of times but I think I'd like to hear from others before exploring further.

Quick test for you!

So, last week, I'm going around my local ASDA doing my weekly shop and I get bored with fruit and vegetables and wander over to stationery where I spot a new product I've not seen before - a FLEXI RULER. As you can see it looks like a normal 12 inch ruler but when you pick it up you discover that it's, er, well, flexible.

Allow me to demonstrate...

So what goes through my mind? Is it...

a) Can't see much point to that unless you intend to measure 'round curves with it, or

b) That's a neat idea, because it wouldn't get snapped in the bottom of a school bag, or

c) Wonder if it stings?

Okay, I'd put money on that the sort of people who read this page, like me, all went for answer (c) straight away which is, of course, why I bought it. It's a very convenient size and could be used on someone OTK, it's safer than a hard wooden ruler on the palm of the hand, and it looks to have good potential for what my old maths teacher in primary school used to describe as "a good whizzing 'round the back of the legs."

What I'm lacking at present is a young lady who would like me to try it out on her so I had to resort to trying it on myself which is never as good but does at least give me an idea of what it's effects might be. I can report that it does sting and the flexibility allows you to use a bit more force than you might with a rigid rule - result of one firm stroke on the palm of my hand and it was still uncomfortably sore ten minutes later which I find unusual. It's also a bit less noisy than many similar items so could be useful in hotel rooms.

Now all I need is a young lady - say 18-30 - and preferably in the North East of England...

Yippee! I'm back

It's been quite a month but I'll try to make up for lost time. Anyway to kick things off, I just had in the post a new Rosie Nieper catalogue. For those who don't know, they're mainly quite witty slogans but all very vanilla stuff. Apart, this time, from this one...

The toy I always wanted

When I was a kid there was one toy that - year after year - I hoped someone would buy me but never did. I used to love playing with them when I went other kids houses but never had my own. Probably I would never have had the patience to do anything good with it but I just wanted an Etch-a-Sketch.

Now the American Spanking Society have shown just what is possible if you can be bothered. If I'd seen this before I just might have bought one myself!

Chelsea changes

Women all over the UK seemed to be devastated by the departure from Chelsea Football Club (soccer) on their manager Jose Mourinho (a.k.a. The Special One) and his subsequent replacement by the (largely unknown) Avram Grant. While admitting that Mourinho's press conferences were a delight, the change seems rather less devastating to me - perhaps because of the headline in The Sunday Times on 23rd September proclaiming THE CHELSEA GIRL READY FOR A SPANKING.

This refers to Avram Grant's wife, Tzofit Grant, who is a 42 year old TV-host in Israel where she has variously bathed in liquid chocolate and, more interestingly, received a spanking from a practising sado-masochist. No pictures of the actual spanking so far (if you have one, I'd love to see it...) but quite a few others of the lady concerned. And I for one wouldn't mind helping out if she's missing her experiences from back home...

Posting problems etc

I haven't really gone quiet on this - actually I've been seething. I installed some updates to the security software on my PC and it barred me from my own blog. After trying a million things that made no difference it seems to have just given up and let me back in again.

One a more relevant note - I was stuck in a traffic jam on Friday behind some large ugly Ford MPV thing - the nice bit about it was the name of the model - didn't like the car much but I do feel tempted by one called the S-MAX...

Wannabe pole dancer

I probably should be posting this videoclip because the wannabe pole dancer gets a swat across her behind right at the start. Actually, I must admit, I'm posting it more because of the consequences of her getting carried away...

Effective punishment

A long time ago - I think I'm writing in saying I would have been five years old - I witnessed a girl in my class on the receiving end of corporal punishment. This was a very rare event - normally you just had to stand in a corner, put your hands on your head, or stand on your chair. The girl was called Diane and she sat with her twin brother. I still don't know what she did but suddenly the teacher swept to the back of the classroom where Diane was sitting, seized her arm and pulled her to her feet. The girl would have been wearing the school uniform skirt and, because it was summer, short white ankle socks. The teacher managed to turn Diane 'round and said something like "Don't ever do that again." while she punctuated each word of the sentence with a slap across the lower half of Diane's legs before pushing the unfortunate girl back on to her seat. Diane just sat there quietly crying and nothing more was said. By break time Diane was a bit more composed but very quiet - however I noticed that there were unmistakable red fingermarks across her legs. There was no hiding the fact that she'd been punished and that must have been so humiliating in itself when she was in the playground. I never saw anyone else get similar treatment but it made a big impact on me at the time.

Returning to an earlier theme...

I posted once before on this subject but had to revisit it.

The number of ordinary people at the very least willing to allow someone to give them a good smack, and at times seeming to actively encourage people to give them a good hard spanking, and, moreover happy for the resulting images to be posted publicly on the Internet is truly amazing.

However, what to me seems all the more remarkable are their reactions. Some seem unperturbed at people seeing that they appear to actively enjoy the experience. Others seem genuinely surprised to discover that it hurts! Perhaps people are increasingly unlikely to have had first-hand or even second-hand experience of corporal punishment while growing up but even so, would you not imagine that exposing your backside to being hit with a long implement delivered with some force might actually hurt? So why do so many of them seem to be surprised...?

My favourite fantasy...

I have had an interesting response posted on my last entry surrounding a story I wrote a long time back. It made me start to think more about the varieties of media we use in the CP scene. At one level video is the most powerful, then images and then text based stories. However, on another level, the "old" text based approach has some advantages - it allows the writer not to describe things too much and therefore to leave the reader to imagine what the girl looks like, what the surroundings are like, how she's dressed and so on. There can be a few pointers, but the reader inserts their own preferences in a way that can't be done in photo-stories and videos. Let's consider what might be my ideal scenario for example.

I guess for me the ideal fantasy surrounds an attractive looking girl, tending towards the sweet and innocent rather than “in your face” sexy. I’d tend to dress them as I see schoolgirls dressing today. That seems to be largely white or pale blue blouse/shirt and maybe a blazer and loosely knotted tie, over either a pair of buttock hugging trousers or very short grey/black/navy skirt over black tights and flat shoes. I can stretch to bare legs with a short skirt in the summer and maybe white ankle-socks but I can’t believe that schoolgirls have worn stockings and suspenders or high heel shoes for school for rather a long time and the stories that work best for me are ones where I see a girl in the street on her way to school and wonder “just suppose that had happened to her…” I also consequently favour minimal jewellery and makeup and I’m really not into tattoos and piercings.

I like to see them before the offence, to get an idea of what they're like, committing the offence so we know why they are to be punished, getting lectured, getting punished and then reflecting afterwards. As we're talking of a school setting, it's likely to be a cane, slipper, ruler or strap - just maybe the hand. It's not likely to involve dropping trousers or knickers - it just might, at a push, involve bending over and showing her knickers. It doesn't involve a warm-up process of gradually moving towards the serious part of the punishment - schools weren't interested in "warming-up" - they were interested in punishing hard. Of course, in the aftermath, we may get to see the marks on her bottom as she examines the damage in the sanctuary of the loo or her bedroom...

Now of course I’d get bored with no variations and therefore there is a skill in coming up with credible stories that cause the girl to be differently dressed – sports events, fancy dress, coming home late from a party, screwing up at work, just plain annoying her boyfriend and so on.

The key things, is that although I expect people reading this blog have some interest in CP (if not, you've wandered into the wrong place...) yet probably everyone reading would either reject that fantasy completely or would want to make changes for their ideal. Let's keep getting the great photo and video stuff, but let's not neglect the old story telling as well - it gives us all a chance to add our own imagination to the scene.
