Judicial CP of females

There are many spanking sites that proclaim that they don't condone corporal punishment of minors, use of minors for sexual purposes and so on - I wholeheartedly agree with those statements. I have seen some that say they don't condone any non-consensual use of corporal punishment - where it's motivated by sexual stimulation I would agree again but would I oppose any use of corporal punishment in a non-consensual way -perhaps judicial caning for example?
I feel I have to address the issue as a couple of people have emailed me directly about some recent posts I made on here about the use of caning in Malaysia. One objected very strongly to me featuring real young women named - and in one case pictured - who may face a judicial caning for breaching religious based laws, and saying that it was wrong to put forward such cases when some people looking at the site would probably find the stories sexually arousing.
Okay, so here goes. Do I think it's okay for people to find the stories arousing? I can't say that I found them that way, or really thought about them that way. However, much of our play fantasy is based - however loosely - around real punishments, maybe in the past. I'm not sure if any adult spanking website would have the nerve to do a fantasy around a Muslim woman being caned under Sharia law - I suspect the outcry would be greater and potentially more endangering than the outcry we have seen in the past about Nazi style scenes. However, what people may choose to do in the private fantasy enactments could be quite different - many people quest for new ideas for scenarios for play. I wouldn't be averse to such a role play.
The second article makes it very clear that these are not meant to be barbaric or likely to seriously injure, unlike the other sorts of canings carried out in that part of the world. Hence I don't think publishing the articles and the photo of the one young lady already sentenced to be caned is showing anything that is especially violent or nasty - in fact the second article makes the point that such punishments are more to do with humiliating than harming.
Do I think consuming alcohol should warrant such a punishment? Well, if a country decided to make it illegal for everyone then I don't see that as being unreasonable. I don't like the idea that because someone has a particular religion they are treated differently to those of other religions in the same country - religion, to me, is about a choice you make rather than an accident of birth. If the young lady felt that she wanted to be of that faith and that she deserved some punishment for infringing the rules of that faith that would be one thing, but not as an automatic given just because of her parents backgrounds.
One thing this has done for me is to make me wonder what offences I would like to see this sort of "somewhat painful but more humiliating" judicial corporal punishment to be used for. The first one I've come up with is using a handheld mobile phone while driving. It makes the journey through commuter traffic to work that much more interesting to spot young ladies breaking the law that way and speculating that under my new law they could be caned for doing so. And wouldn't that make for an interesting safety advert campaign?

Interesting way to prevent someone taking you by surpise with a smack on the behind...

Canings in Malaysia

This is the follow on to a previous post of mine about the re-emergence of the quasi-judicial use of caning as a punishment for female offenders in Malaysia. I found this one interesting both because it suggests the other case is not just going to be a one-off incident, but also because there is some detail given about the modus operandi. It also has a quote from the girl who - it seems - is likely to be the next one to be on the receiving end of such a punishment and the tone is interesting. No pleading or begging for mercy or saying she disagrees with the process. In fact she seems remarkably accepting of her likely fate in perhaps the same way that traditionally schoolkids in the UK tended to be acquiescent when told to report to the headmaster for the cane.

Breaking free

It's fantastic to read on another blog of the author telling her close family about her enjoyment of being spanked - one day maybe we will all feel free to do the same.

Times are changing

..but sometimes in the opposite direction to what we expect, as evidenced by this story of a country where caning of female offenders is being reintroduced.

My mis-spent youth


I often think back to when I was at school. My fascination with corporal punishment was already well developed and I read everything I could find on the subject, but despite being at schools where it was used I didn't have the bottle to actually do anything to put my own posterior in danger. Except.... Except maybe once.

I guess I was about fourteen at the time. I had a legitimate reason to go into the school on a Saturday expecting to meet up with others, but when I arrived I found they were just going for the afternoon and I had thought it was meant to be all day. The school was deserted and unable to do what I'd gone for, I just wandered around to find something to occupy me. Which is how I came across the deputy headmaster's office with the door wide open and a sign attached asking the cleaners not to lock it. Now at that time, he was the only person in the school to give out official corporal punishment in the form of canings. I knew, from all my reading, that it was a legal requirement for schools to record corporal punishment in an official register, and the obvious place for our school to store the punishment book would be his office.

There were two issues - the school was so deathly quite that I should hear anyone approaching thanks to the wooden floors. On the other hand it was located in a bit of a dead end so it wouldn't be easy to get away without being heard. The possibility of seeing the punishment book and being able to read it was too great a temptation.

I just stood in there for a few moments - the first time I'd been in the room - and imagined the scene as errant pupils were caned just where I stood. The silence was reassuring and I began to search. No cupboards or drawers were locked so I ended up looking everywhere. I found the cane itself but never found the punishment book. If I had, I know I could not have been satisfied with just looking to see whose names were there, what they'd done and what they'd got. I would undoubtedly have stolen it. And what would the consequences have been then? I was tempted to steal the cane but just couldn't see how I was going to conceal it to take it anywhere.

What would you think...?

...if you were engaged in some light banter at work. An attractive female colleague in her early twenties was in front of you and made a slightly cheeky remark to you. You brandished the ruler you happened to have in your hand at the time in a mildly threatening manner (not that I'd dare do anything with it because I want to keep my job) and she said "Oooh - a spanking!"

Hmm - that's what I've been thinking as well.

Different view of things


I don't tire of seeing well shot photos and videos of attractive young ladies getting a good spanking, but I did think after all these years of collecting and browsing I'd seen every possible camera angle, until I came across this one very recently. I don't think it's a recent shot - some suggestion it might be NuWest - and you can neither see the face of the girl, or her bottom, or even any sign of how she's being spanked.

However, perhaps that's to the good because you can use your imagination, perhaps thinking of someone you know or someone close to you and thinking this might one day have been them. The legs of the punisher are clearly a woman's and it looks like a house setting so I assume it's the girl's mother who's put the errant daughter over her lap. The knee high white socks suggest the girl is being portrayed as school age, and the fact that her toes are barely in contact with the floor seems to heighten the feeling of her vulnerability and helplessness. There's no sign of the girl's panties around her legs so maybe she's been allowed to keep those on for now - maybe she's even being spanked on the seat of her skirt but I suspect that the mother, having gone to the trouble of positioning the chair and putting her daughter across her lap is intending to make this a good long spanking so she may not stay that lucky. And if she makes the mistake of struggling or back-talking her mother, she could be worse off because it looks to me like there some handy canes in the nearby houseplant...

I'm sure it would all end in tears!

Experimenting

When I was growing up I thought for a time I was more of a sub than a dom - certainly from at least the age of eight I had something of an obsession with self-spanking. At the time I struggled to understand myself - I hadn't at that time come across the more user-friendly terms of dom and sub but I had come across sadist and masochist and a lot of what I read about people who were masochists suggested a kind of mental abnormality. I was fortunate to keep my proclivities a secret at the time because I'm sure nobody else would have thought I was normal with some of the things I was doing.

Anytime I was in the house by myself I would indulge in self-spankings that became increasingly severe. I recognised that the awkwardness of trying to hit your own bottom tended to impair the effectiveness and force that could be used so I tended to compensate with removal of clothing, experimentation with different instruments, and more and more strokes as hard as I could manage.

Some of the implements were really on the severe end of the scale - one was just a piece of very solid wood that my father used for mixing wallpaper paste. Just over one inch by half an inch in cross section but just over twenty inches long it packed quite a sting. Even just a light tap stung and as I became more and more ambitious I would deliver self-inflicted beatings of maybe twenty or more hard strokes that would leave bruising for a week or more. Eventually I hid it in his tool shed until he started using something else, and then I took it and hid it in my room. I can't imagine how I would have explained if anyone had found it. I still have it and still regard it as formidable.

Then on another occasion when I was at home by myself I decided to try one of my mother's wooden mixing spoons. I knew I was safe from anyone returning soon so I dropped my trousers and pants in the kitchen and delivered two good hard smacks with the spoon to my tush. The second one made a really loud crack and the spoon splintered into several pieces that flew around the kitchen. The loss of the spoon wasn't much of a problem because she had several but I was never 100% sure that I'd found every piece - imagine trying to explain if a piece of broken spoon had turned up!

I quite like pictures of self-spanking but whereas in most cases it seems the person wants to feel the effects of the punishment I was always more interested in thinking what it would be like to do this to a willing girl and to think about what she would feel like.
