Recap: Spanko Brunch 2.0 for July 27

Our topic this week was an implement that you would draw the line at. Here are your responses: 

Bonnie: I have no interest in getting involved with a single tail whip, although that lands outside my definition of spanking implements. There are some I prefer and others I am pleased to skip, but there are few hard limits.

I don't think Randy would insist if he know something was a hard limit for me.

Simon: I absolutely hate wooden spoons and don't particularly like heavy paddles. I wouldn't dare refuse to have them used on me after all it's her choice but they aren't used very often. Wooden spoons for some reason seem to have a sting far beyond what you would expect from their size. Heavy paddles thunk into your bottom and cause deep bruising which I don't enjoy.

Roz: I'm with Bonnie, whips would be a hard limit for me.

Jan: I too am with Roz, no whips for me EVER.

Abby: Refuse to try... no, I have a safe word as a protection. Master always says it is not the implement it is the person wielding it that determines how it feels.

Callie: I absolutely refuse to have anything to do with implements that look like they belong in the jail/punishment system of an Asian country. Whips, canes, floggers, etc.

H is ok with this and understands my reasons why.

morningstar: We have a HUGE wooden paddle - bought in a moment of "je ne sais quoi" madness perhaps - bought by me even!! It is a very large paddle used in industrial kitchens for stirring (I think) large pots of something or other. We bought it for 5$ I sanded it and stained it.

When W would use it, there was a pattern - 4 light hits then 1 heavy, "all you're worth" hits. Rinse, repeat.

After I was sick a few years back it seemed that any implement that rattled my insides went on the "no fly zone" list. Slowly everything has returned except for that paddle - it really does rattle my insides.

Oh and W is sort of ok with it being a hard limit now, though he does - from time to time - talk wistfully about it

Leigh: I hate the lexan paddle which I purchased. It has since disappeared.

A "friend" presented me with a cane which I have always thought would be awful. It wasn't bad, of course, it wasn't discipline either.

Oh, and I just saw Bonnie's remark - definitely no whips.

Baxter: I agree with most everyone. Whips are in the NO WAY column. I ask my wife to spank me and I prefer the more 'vanilla' implements such as the leather belt I wear to work, a wooden spoon and a paddle which is actually a weaving tool. I also prefer a wool comb, the flat side opposite the tines side. All give me what I want.

Ronnie: Our twisted wooden Loopy Johnny is the only thing in our box that I hate. It stings like a thousand bees.

The cane I said I would never want used but that was a long time ago and happily P changed my mind about it.

Minelle: I'd definitely never want a cane or a whip! I really prefer his hand. The paddle is hard unless wielded mildly!

Annapurna: With the exception of the whip, just about any implement would be okay. The force behind the impact is what matters most to me. Various implements do offer different sensations. I would include the whip as well if it could be expertly controlled so as to minimize any unwanted damage.

Dragon's Rose: A single tail in the right hands is heaven. Not a hard limit but I need a demonstration of competence before I let it touch my skin.

The loopy Johnny is my hard limit. WOWCHY! Even used lightly, I still call RED!

Prefectdt: I really get psychologically freaked by anything made of metal. Not that I totally refuse to have it used on me but I have to seriously trust the person using it a lot, to agree to play with metal impact toys.

Sir Wendel: I wouldn’t go for the Loopy Johnny or single tailed whip. Maybe I am old fashioned but I don’t venture too far from the paddle, belt or cane.

Arched one: So far we have tried many implements, some we don't have lexan paddle, loopy johnny and a few others. The whip we have I made for her and love the feel. Have not tried a cane yet and would love to feel it being used. So far we don't have anything on the "no fly list". Maybe in time we will find something we don't care for but for now let's try it all.

Hermione: Out of all our implements, I hate the dressage whip the most. Two weeks ago,  I walked into the bedroom to find our three most severe implements - dressage whip, wooden shoehorn and lexan carpet beater - laid out side by side. The look of utter dismay on my face made Ron roar with laughter. He assured me he was only teasing, handed me the terrible trio, and told me to put them back and choose three others. I did so with pleasure!

Thank you all for contributing, and have a pleasant week!
