The storyline in Cam, Handled is pretty much the tale of a rather light-hearted lesbian BDSM sex romp, right up until the heavy wooden paddle comes out. The look of sudden concern on pretty blonde Cam’s face after the first solid whack tells you where this story is going:
She’s really not grateful for her punishment at all. But she’s also not really in a position to safely express her rebellious sentiments, so she’s writing her lines like a good girl:
These photos come from the 2009 archives at RealSpankings.com. I don’t know what Monica did to get herself strapped to a spanking bench for an extremely thorough punishment with canes, paddles, and a leather strap, but I’m pretty confident she never did it a second time!
In 1929 Margaret Livingston appeared in the movie The Office Scandal. Plot summaries I’ve seen don’t indicate why she’s being menaced with a whip in this scene:
Here at Spanking Blog I have tended to make light of hazing scenarios, whether fraternal or sororal, because they often work so well as a fantasy framework. But it’s perhaps worth pausing once in a while to emphasize that outside our fantasy context, hazing is just a fancy word for bullying. And bullying can have the most tragic consequences.
I was surprised that the story illustrated by the above artwork took such a strong line against hazing, considering that it appeared in the November 1934 issue of Cosmopolitan. My historical education, such as it has been, made me think that hazing was broadly considered harmless in that era. And perhaps that was, indeed, the mainstream thrust of opinion. But this story goes another way. In Autumn Idyl, our hero arrives at a California university with what we would now call post-traumatic stress from a family history of fatal mob violence against his father. The escalating hazing condoned at his institution — all of it completely non-consensual, not fraternity rushing he volunteered for, just ritual violence directed at freshmen in general — eventually pushes him past a psychological limit, triggering his commission of a violent act of self-defense that nonetheless gets him expelled.
