How do you solve a problem like Maria? Blake has figured it out while preparing a naughty filk for a custom video:
How do you solve a problem like Maria?
Maybe a good hard flogging’s what she needs!
First find a tree and rope with which to bind her.
Then whip her bare back hard until she bleeds…
I must admit, I never considered Maria to be quite that much of a problem, but she’s a delightful bit of baggage and sorting her out wouldn’t be any kind of burden at all.
So I got a little bit fooled by this old porn-tumblr photo, which looks a lot liked a non-commercial spanking photo of the type that lots of kinky people used to upload and share:
It turns out I was right about the amateur (non-commercial) part, but the spanked part is the result of diligent editing. Here’s the actual photo as it originally circulated, sadly without any pretty spanking blush on that lovely bottom:
If you’ve been around the spanking web for a really long time like me, you might remember there used to be a Japanese spanking site called Cutie Spankee. I think this photo is from there:
We don’t always get to see the unaltered paintings that got commissioned for pulp magazine cover art back in the day, but when we do, they can be stunning. This Margaret Brundage bondage whipping scene with a martinet ended up on the cover of a Weird Tales (see below):
According to Pulp Covers, the Brundage painting sold at auction for $42,000.
Everybody in the erotic spanking community knows that the humiliation of a good spanking (or a bad one, for that matter) is a significant element of the punishment. Perhaps that’s only minimally true of a private spanking between a long-established couple who are deeply comfortable with each other’s bodies, but even then, spanking positions tend to be exposed and vulnerable. The humiliation factor only goes up from there!
There could never be a comprehensive list of humiliating punishments. There are so many variables, including the extent of helplessness, the degree of exposure, the likelihood of witnesses or extra participants, extra sexual components added to the punishment, and so on. But a good list (of anything) is satisfying to those of us who are taxonomically inclined. That’s why link lists were so popular on the early web, and why many of them (such as Myfavsexcams.xxx) are still enjoyed by web surfers today. And it’s why I’ve decided to start a list (in the form of periodic blog posts) of creative and humiliating punishments.
One of the reasons I post so much kinky art in the hentai / doujinshi / “fan art” styles is that it’s less constrained. These are the fertile fields in which Rule 34 blooms and flourishes. In these fields, I’m always learning things, especially about obscure fantasies and micro-fetishes that aren’t necessarily part of the internet’s broader consensus sexual zeitgeist. Thus, the “spanked in a wall” punishments in today’s post. This kind of art heaps together humiliating elements of helplessness, objectification, exposure, and sometimes free public use.
The result is a horny stew of super-specific BDSM humiliation that’s only rarely seen in live-action filmed porn starring real people. Hentai art in general does a great job of heaping and compiling unusual fetish elements into implausible tableaus that are like sexual catnip to the seventeen specific individuals who enjoy a critical mass of the presented fetish elements. However, such micro-targeting, if you will, does have a downside.
Perhaps the artist, the patron who commissions a hyper-specific image, and a small group of fetish fellow travelers will take enormous pleasure in one of these images. But it’s almost guaranteed that richly-stacked micro-fetish elements only rarely combine into mass-market commercial products, even by the unambitious definitions of “mass market” that prevail in porn. But truly, isn’t the boutique nature of this stuff a huge part of its charm?
