Spanking

When someone slaps a sex partner with an open hand or an object to increase sexual pleasure for one or both of them, it's known as spanking and is a form of sexual play. Those who find sexual pleasure in intense feelings or slight discomfort are typically the ones who prefer this kind of adult spanking. For a smaller percentage of spankees, the pleasure also includes the enjoyment of pain. It can be performed during sexual activity or foreplay. Spanking should occur in a mutually agreeable power-playing relationship where both partners discuss their needs and boundaries. It is essential to use signals and safe words to ensure everyone is safe.

Spanking Positions

There are several ways to spank someone. The person being hit is occasionally hunched over furnishings or a sinking bench. Another popular spanking position is over-the-knee spanking (OTK spanking).

When someone is struck while their body is positioned over the spanker's knee, this is known as over-the-knee spanking. With their feet flat on the ground, the dominating partner sits on a chair, couch, or bed. With their upper body on one side of the dominant's legs and their legs on the other, the submissive lies face down over the dominant's lap. If the dominant is seated in a chair, they might let their head drop to the ground to raise their buttocks significantly. They could use a bed or couch to support their weight if this position is too hard to keep.

The dominant can strike the submissive's buttocks as often as they like once they are in position. They might use their hands or another tool, such as a paddle or crop, to spank them. The dominant can spank with one hand while holding the subordinate in place with the other if they resist. The dominant may use their body to pin the submissive down if they need further constraint, for example, by putting their knee over their legs.

The submit may be in any undressed state that the dominant desires, while the dominant may continue to wear clothing. The submissive may wait for the dominant to take off their underpants or approach them without it. Although it doesn't hurt as much, the dominant may also spank the subordinate while they are still in their underpants.

When the submissive agrees, many dominants employ spankings as a means of controlling them during BDSM play. If the submissive has consented, dominators might use it to humiliate them to achieve mental or physical dominance. Because it places the bodies of a dominant and submissive person nearby, it is a highly intimate act. By spanking over the knee, the spanker can avoid "misfiring" and injuring their submissive's thighs or lower back.

Other names for spanking include spankophilia and erotic spanking.

More About Spanking

An open hand or a wide range of tools, such as a paddle, whip, or cane, can be used to spank someone. It could be given as an impromptu slap or continue for a protracted session over time. Spanking can occasionally be a component of rough sex or sadomasochism. Many people experience arousal when they are spanked because pain causes endorphins to be released.

Why People Are Into Spanking

For dominants and their submissives, impact play in general and OTK spanking in particular can be exhilarating. An over-the-knee spanking exposes the submissive in numerous ways to the dominant. They have an excellent view of the submissive's posterior and the harm they cause to it. Additionally, because the submissive cannot see the dominant and what they are doing, tension can readily build during an over-the-knee spanking. This implies that the submissive is always unaware of when they will be subjected to their subsequent punishment.

For many bodies, the over-the-knee spanking posture can be relatively comfortable because the dominant bears the submissive's weight. Additionally, it gives the dominant complete control without the need for furniture, other aids, or bondage. For submissive persons who adore ceding control but dislike being physically restrained, this can be pretty stimulating. Even though they are not required, you might use these restrictions to give some variation to the spanking. For instance, the dominant might turn the submissive over their knee after tying their wrists and ankles together. Additionally, they might use a blindfold to make them concentrate on the physical sensations or a gag to stop them from screaming.

However, some couples may find it physically difficult to endure over-the-knee spanking. Positioning a tall submissive over the knee is frequently challenging. A couch or bed can support a tall submissive's upper body, and the dominant can jam the submissive's legs between their own.

Since the submissive spanks the buttocks, which are willing to accept some punishment, over-the-knee spanking is comparatively safe. It might result in welts, bruises, or red markings, but these should go away fast. Nevertheless, Dominants should remember that they are in a position of authority. Because it allows them more control over the force of each blow, some dominants prefer to spank their subordinate with their hand. To avoid giving their subordinate a heavier spanking than they intended, they should use caution while using tools. You need to be aware of the hazards because skin breaking can result in infections. Applying a cool cloth after the spanking might lessen the sting and swelling.
