Fake Bloody Whip Marks In Bad 1970s Porn
For as long as we’ve had photographic BDSM porn, we’ve had fake cane welts and whip marks. Once I even found a photo of the fake marks being applied to a model’s bottom.
My editorial policy on marks is somewhat multiply-lobed. To protect gentler sensibilities, I try never to show real/actual open cuts or blood (though I did once show a bloody paddle of cruelly-innovative design.) I don’t worry much about severe or colorful welts. I don’t worry at all about whether a given set of marks is real or fake, because art is art, and good forgeries offer the same pleasures as the real thing when it comes to visual media. (More discerning readers sometimes remonstrate with me about this.) However, at the risk of contradicting myself, if marks are too obviously faked, I’ll avoid and not share those images, for the same reason that nobody likes to watch an obviously-faked orgasm. And, finally, I generally avoid faked “bloody” marks, which I find far more distasteful than any honest dents and dings that may result from heavy or enthusiastic BDSM play.
Some of you may never have seen what I’m talking about. We don’t often see fake blood in porn these days, because the credit card companies prohibit it. But for a brief time in the anything-goes cash-paying 1970s, when all the rules were changing, it wasn’t uncommon. Artsy film makers were making outrageously bloody exploitation and horror films, while pornographers were experimenting with cheap special effects and wondering what would sell in the under-the-counter magazine space. And so it wasn’t at all uncommon to see cheap attempts at making BDSM porn — usually by vanilla pornographers who didn’t understand kink and missed or misunderstood all the important fetish signifiers — that included super-fake bloody whip marks. Because of my interest in vintage porn, I come across it surprisingly often.
Despite my usual practices, I’m publishing these two images from the 1970 Dutch porn magazine Kwak #5. I suppose I want to preserve and transmit the memory of just how cheesy and terrible porn could be, half a century ago. These whip marks are extensive, but appear to have been painted on with runny catsup or perhaps cheap theatrical blood. In truth I’m far more interested in the faux-medieval costuming, which sadly isn’t shown very well. But since many of you may not expect to see fake blood here at Spanking Blog, the painted-on whipping marks are obscured. Click the image to see them in all their dubious glory.

Creepy Political Spanking Rhetoric
There’s been a lot of attention recently to a ten-second clip of right-wing demagogue Tucker Carlson saying “when Dad gets home, you know that he says? You’ve been a bad girl! You’ve been a bad little girl, and you’re getting a vigorous spanking” in a speech at Turning Point USA:
I used the word “creepy” in the post title for a reason; I acknowledge that it’s subjective as hell. But we all recognize the intensifiers in that sentence as sexualized. If Tucker were talking about an actual Dad, spanking an actual girl-child, rather than an erotic power exchange impact-play session between roleplaying adults, the repeated “bad girl” and the adjectives “little” and “vigorous” would be out of place. We all understand: that’s porn talk, kinky talk, like we celebrate here at Spanking Blog all the time. It’s not something we’d feel comfortable hearing an actual dad say to his actual teen girl children.
But Tucker? He’s making an extended metaphor, between what he considers an intolerable cultural and political situation (beyond the scope of this blog and this blog post) and an imaginary domestic discipline scenario that we are to understand as metaphorically equivalent to what will happen when his preferred candidate wins. In the 11-second clip above, he’s speaking the words of “Dad” to a pair of rebellious teens, described in the extended clip below as a “your 14 year old [who] light[s] a joint at the breakfast table” and a “your hormone-addled 15 year old [who] slam[s] the door of her bedroom and give[s] you the finger”. Watch the full minute and a half, and it becomes clear: he’s describing this domestic punishment scenario with a lurid and pornified enthusiasm.
Whatever we may think of family corporal punishment for actual teens (never a topic for this blog), describing it in the sexualized words of adult-spanking roleplay porn is, yes, creepy.

Spankings For Camgirls
Spanking is never the easiest kink for a camgirl to perform for an online audience, because (except for a few highly-disciplined kinky ladies who can self-spank convincingly) a good spanking is a production that typically requires a second player and a power-exchange dynamic of some kind. While we certainly can find spanking performances at sites like Rabbits Cams, a lot of cams performers are drawn to that line of work because of the independence and scheduling freedom they derive from working alone. Although, if you’re a lucky bunny like the submissive shown above, with your own dominatrix and a dog-faithful videographer, you’re in clover!
In this new web economy of independent camgirls, OnlyFans entrepreneurs, e-girl influencers, topless streamers, mattress actresses, and other hard-hustling professionally beautiful people, I’m told that it’s rather common for a couple of pretty ladies to come together for “content sharing” activities, where they’ll do a show or make a video together for them both to use and sell independently. In my imagination that’s what the two beauties below are doing. Put on the rabbit ears and the Playboy Club cocktail-waitress corsets and the puffy cotton tails, and then, let the spankings commence:
Another trend I’ve really been enjoying in the online professional pretty-girl space is the rise of cosplay. It used to be a fun thing to do at conventions — and presumably, still is — but increasingly it’s also become a beloved-by-all way to spice up adult erotic online entertainment of every kind. Are you a naughty schoolgirl cosplayer with thicc curves and a stern boyfriend? Ha! Your work is already done, because that spicy show practically writes itself, no further effort on your part. “I’m sorry! I’ll be good!”
What if you’re a lop-eared bunny with a breeding kink? They’re out there, you know. In fact, “submissive and breedable” is its own whole meme these days. A big burly husband and a good line of baby-frenzied sex talk is all you need to put on that show. There aren’t many men who can refuse when she says “fuck me like an animal…”
One thing camgirls and cosplayers share is the need for excellent props. Anybody who remembers the old comic book stylings of cave people whose women used bones to style their hair will appreciate that a good bunny girl cosplay needs a carrot hairpiece:

If Vanillas Can Overshare, Why Can’t We?
Have you ever noticed that vanilla people can overshare the most wildly intimate details of their sex lives without anybody minding, but if a kinky person starts talking about BDSM play, it’s a horrible faux pas? Bo Duck certainly has:
Transcript:
I actually don’t mind hearing about people trying for a baby. Like yeah, tell me, and I’ll be excited for you! I just want to receive the same energy back when I tell you that I got caned and spent a couple hours acting like a dog over the weekend.
Bo’s video caption adds this detail: “My coworker literally pulled out a calendar and showed me which days they ‘tried’.”

Vintage Spanking Shenanigans
I don’t have any context for this vintage spanking photo, but I will say that our mixed group of young adults parked up at the end of some lonely country road behind a capacious automobile probably intend some shenanigans of which the adults in their lives would not approve! Meanwhile our man with a lady over his lap for a spanking has a look in his eye that suggests every kind of deviltry is on the menu:
