I received a couple of interesting emails recently. One was asking spanking purists and the other was a request for a sement of additional non-spanking punishments to be added to the Punished Brats website.
Let’s first address the term “spanking purist”. Some claim the title proudly acknowledging that their interest in the fetish world is restricted to that of spanking and spanking only. No back whipping, no bondage, no tickling, no bare foot worship, nothing but spanking. Others use the term with the intent of a slight dig that those with a spanking-and-spanking-only outlook are perhaps a bit snobbish or close-minded when it comes to other seemingly related interests.
But how do you truly define a spanking purist? Is it one that only enjoys OTK hand spankings? Some have told me that is the proper and ONLY way to deliver a spanking. What if a paddle is used? That could be termed paddling and therefore not a simple spanking (especially if said paddle is one of those large frat style boards to be delivered to the recipient in a bent over position). Is one booted out of the purity camp if they consider implements or other positions to be acceptable play? Is a strap on the bottom still spanking pure and a cat o’nine tails on the back something else entirely?
And what about those non-spanking punishments that are more domestic or traditional in nature that are often seen coupled with spankings like corner time, writing lines, mouth soaping, enforced early bed time? Those things are not spanking so do they cross the line as well?
It was those sorts of additional punishments that were requested as a separate section on the website; I assume with full clip segments of the girl in the corner or writing lines. A very high percentage of the clips currently filmed end with the closing shot of the girl in the corner, but not a full five, ten minute, or hour long clip. Do many spanking enthusiasts enjoy seeing these other punishments in full length? Could a spanking purist enjoy such a thing (my guess is no) or would even the closing shot of a girl writing lines or getting a mouth soaping ruin the thrill?
Tell me, how do you define a spanking purist? Would you consider yourself one? Can other related punishments be appealing as long as spanking is still the primary focus?
