Looking For Spankings In Hardcore Porn
Let’s face it: We customers and consumers of spanking porn are fussy. We’ve got a neatly defined fetish and each of us has a preferred set of kink signifiers we are looking for. Some of us want hand spankings only, panties up, no nudity. Some want paddles and canes, but never a whip! Some want specialty implements, like hairbrushes or wooden spoons. Some can’t bear to see a welt or a bruise. Others want real tears and serious pain/anguish. It doesn’t matter; we are united in our discontent with porn that gets spankings wrong. Usually this is mainstream (“vanilla”) hardcore porn that works in just a little bit of spanking. But it’s made by people who don’t share our fetish… and it shows!
Sometimes the errors are major. Whipping scenes are a mainstay of BDSM porn but they are not “spanking” and shouldn’t be keyworded as such. Since I myself am polymorphously perverse, we have lots of whipping content here at Spanking Blog. I like it. Spanking is only one of my kinks! But I know better than to call it spanking. A lot of porn producers, seemingly, do not.
Sometimes the problems are more subtle. For instance, a lot of mainstream porn stars are unfamiliar with BDSM in general or with spanking in particular. Maybe their mental model for it is the femdom work they’ve done? So they maintain that haughty/bitchy “porn star sneer” throughout the proceedings. They don’t know how to be playful or bratty or sorry or frantic or apologetic or contrite. Spanking is a game they simply don’t know how to play. Sticking your butt in the air and letting somebody slap it is… well, it’s fine, I don’t ever mind it… but it’s not a spanking if the vibes are all wrong.
All this can make shopping for spanking porn on mainstream porn sites a bit of an adventure, if not a quest. The porn is out there, no doubt. A lot of famous hardcore porn sites that aren’t focused 100% on kink include a fair amount of spanking content. Two at that link which Spanking Blog readers will surely recognize are House Of Taboo and Hustler. But if you don’t know how much vanilla porn will you have to watch, to find the kinky stuff you’re looking for? What helps with that: reviewers. Reading something like this Bang.com review will help you figure out pretty fast whether a particular porn site has what you’re looking for.
Your reward for looking outside the little family of spanking porn producers we all know and love is fresh faces, new-to-us bodies, and a whole different universe of settings, scenes, and stories. Going on a spanking porn research-quest can be frustrating, but it’s great when your searching pays off!
