The Decline Of Spanking Rulers
I have seen very few rulers in my time that were stiff and durable and heavy enough to be good spanking implements. And yet they are featured everywhere in vintage spanking erotica. How is that?
Here’s Ed Lee in a 2006 Nu-West newsletter, explaining that the quality of rulers has declined. They just don’t make ’em like they used to:
Rulers… Twenty years ago you could buy a 15 or 18 inch ruler that was perfect for CP. The former for OTK and the latter for a body separate type punishment. Try to buy one now. They still make 15, 18 and 24 inch rulers but they would be a joke for CP because they are made out of soft woods. I surmise whoever manufactures them could no longer afford to make them out of hardwood and remain competitive in the market.

I guess since teachers – rightfully – can’t use them any more to beat students, nobody thinks about the adults who want to beaten with them…
I laughed at the comment ” Bush Supporter Eve Howard” Even thought Ed was an ex Marine his politics were left of center.
If anyone is pining for a proper spanking ruler, the Chinese still make them (& as I hear, use them). Example here. Made from stout bamboo.
I had a professor in college who spent his whole lecture gesturing with a thick 18” ruler. I used to daydream about what it would feel like to be called to his office to receive correction with it on my bare, wriggling bottom, or heaven forbid, be bent over the desk at the front of the class with everyone else there! He was an older man and I wonder if he used that ruler intentionally to generate thoughts like the ones I had.
