Spanko Brunch 2.0 #643

I want to extend a warm welcome to everyone who has come to join us for brunch. Newcomers, please introduce yourselves and don't be shy. You are among friends here. Today, let's talk about tears.

How important are tears in your spanking relationship? Do they happen often, seldom, or once in a blue moon? Are they even necessary? What do you think of the popular concept of being spanked to tears?

Leave your response as a comment, and once everyone has had a chance to speak, I will publish a summary of our conversation. If you have never joined in a brunch discussion before, now's your chance. You may remain anonymous if you wish.

Recap: Spanko Brunch 2.0 for May 10

What about marks? Here's what you said:

 Bonnie: There are marks and then there are marks. I always have some residual redness on my bottom after I receive a proper spanking, but it often dissipates fairly quickly. There are some spankings, though, where Randy’s combination of implement, technique, and duration leaves me owning a more lasting set of marks.

I love my marks and the accompanying ouch back there whenever I sit, stand, walk, or bend. They remind me that I was recently punished, and to a certain degree, that the corporal punishment is still ongoing. These are exciting notions for me. Inspecting my visible marks in a mirror afterward makes the whole experience real.

Anon: My ex was surprised by marks the first time I spanked her, despite it being just surface marks and a few handprints. She got used to it. 

Roz: I used to love having marks and being able to feel the spanking after. A lasting reminder. Rick also used to enjoy seeing the evidence of his handiwork. In the early days we were surprised at the amount of marking on a couple of occasions.

Rosco: Irene likes to tease me about them. She’ll say I deserved them and more. That she hopes I learned my lesson, but she suspects I haven’t.

The most visible marks occur when she uses a switch - tiny welts that sting like crazy when they’re administered but satisfy like cold lemonade on a hot day.

There have been a few errant blows over the years which have caused Irene a bit of remorse, but I’ve always healed in a couple of days.

Prefectdt: I don't mark much now. Sometimes welts from a very hard caning, but that is more that you can see a furrow along my bottom, with no or not much bruising. I did start bruising again, some years ago, when I started taking a medication for my sticky blood syndrome, but that stopped happening about 18 months after starting the medication. I did used to like looking at my marks for a few days after the spanking, and miss that a lot. Still, there is usually swelling of the buttocks now and that is nice to feel for 3 or 4 days after the spanking, but it is not as good as having proper marks.   

Red: Cindy is very happy to see my bottom a bright red, but not happy if any bruising or bad marks. However, a nice grey surrounded by red on my bottom shows a rather very intense and deserved spanking. I like to take pictures of my bottom when it is quite red, but the lighting does not show the deep red. Wonder why on an Iphone. I blogged recently also, but need to re-learn everything, like how to put links to blogs I am starting to re-follow. 

Welcome back, Red. I've added your link to my blog roll.

Hermione: I love seeing marks, but sadly, I don't mark much these days. Redness that lasts a day or so, but nothing dramatic. I'll have to find out how Ron can up his game :)

Spanko Brunch 2.0 #642

It's the weekend, and that means it's time for another spanko brunch. This week's topic is one I am particularly fond of.

How do you and your partner feel about the marks left after a spanking? Do they happen often or just under certain circumstances? Do you like them, do they bother you, or are you indifferent?

Leave your thoughts as a comment and I will publish a summary of our discussion on Monday.

Recap: Spanko Brunch 2.0 for May 3

This week we discussed quiet spankings and this is what you said:

Wendel: No quiet spanking here. The sound of the bottom being smacked is wonderful and I love to hear the Misses cry out after each whack. 

Roz: No need for quiet spankings but I am always paranoid about what neighbours might hear.

Glenmore: When the kids were home we would schedule a lunchtime meeting for lunch and spanking.
With the nest empty we just have to make sure the windows aren't open!
We had a noisy one in a hotel room. Once and got some amused looks in the elevator the next morning.We didn't know them so didn't really care.

Fondles: Tappity taps with the cane... it's the quietest option we have.   

Prefectdt: There are quiet toys, rope floggers, for example. But realistically, having to keep it hushed is one condition too far. Better to find a place where noise is not an issue.

Bonnie: No. Our nest is empty now.

Hermione: There's no need for us to be quiet, but we put the television on for the dogs and give them stuffed Kongs to enjoy so the noise won't bother them.

Spanko Brunch 2.0 #641

Welcome back, dear friends. We all know that spankings can be very noisy affairs, and that's part of the fun. But what if you have friends, parents, or children within earshot and you absolutely have to keep the noise down?

Do you sometimes need to have quiet spankings? How do you keep the sound to a minimum? 

Please leave your reply as a comment. Once everyone has had a chance to leave their suggestions, I will publish a summary of our discussion.

Recap: Spanko Brunch 2.0 for April 26

Does the spankee say "thank you"?

Graham: Absolutely! I not only thank her verbally, but she almost always receives a well-deserved oral orgasm usually followed by penetrative sex. Lots of fun!

Roz: I don't usually thank Rick for a spanking and it's not generally expected however I have on the odd occasion.

Fondles: I don't, usually, but I *have* said thank you when we have a Dd/lg session of playing (and spanking) - which I only mention here specifically cos sometimes the dynamic is less obvious.   

Prefectdt: After a spanking I always offer a full formal, thank you. Usually in at least one full sentence. This is accompanied by a small bow. I never offer or seek a hug after this, but I often do get a hug from the other party, A hug is most welcome, but only if it is genuinely meant. I would not like it if I felt that the other party felt they had to hug me.

FL: Often, sometimes immediately following as part of roleplay, sometimes a while afterward, thanking her for enthusiastically indulging me. It's just good manners.

Jack: When my wife/mommy is done with the spanking I must say I will be a good little boy Mommy and sorry for being naughty.

Rosco: I’ll often apologize for the behavior that led up to the spanking - that I’m sorry for being such a recalcitrant naughty disrespectful pouty boy and that I need to learn to follow all her rules. Then I might thank her for spanking me because I know I needed it.

She’ll agree and usually say she needs to spank me more often.

A few times Irene has demanded that I thank her as she’s spanking me. I’ll refuse at first just to be a little annoying then comply.

Barrel: Yes, I do thank my wife after any spanking. After a long session, when I am totally drained, I give her a deep hug and thank her for taking me into that realm where I feel a total release of any stress. I absolutely love those moments.

A.J.: "Do you thank your spanker after a spanking?"

No. Not really.  Does telling her "Oh.  That was a good one!" count?
Has she ever thanked me for rendering the "honors?"  
No! (That bitch!!!  Kidding.)

"As a spanker, do you expect or demand such a courtesy?"
No.  Never.
And that seems to me like a ritual or formality, one that I don't care for.
We thank each other in "other" ways, if-you-know-what-I-mean- and-I-think-you-do. 
      

Wendel: The Misses has never thanked me for spanking her and I do not look for it. Consoling with kisses and sex is all that is needed.

Hermione: I agree with Wendel. No thanks are required, just some intimacy.

Spanko Brunch 2.0 #640

Welcome back, friends and visitors alike. Our dear friend Erica Scott has posted again, so please visit her and say hello. She shared her interviews on the Spanko! Podcast; the links are here to part one and part two. It was a pleasant surprise to me because I had never heard of the Spanko! Podcast, but I'll be returning often.

Now on to today's discussion, kindly supplied to us by our good friend Barrel.

As a spankee, do you thank your spanker after a spanking? As a spanker, do you expect or demand such a courtesy?

Please leave your response as a comment, and I will publish a summary of our discussion after everyone has had a chance to weigh in.
