Skilled Wank-O-Scope Operator
Anybody who has spent any time writing an adult blog has probably received a communication — usually an email or an irrelevant blog post comment — from somebody who writes at length about their own highly-specific fantasy and then fishes for some kind of detailed feedback. I get these all the time at Spanking Blog, deleting them left and right. I’ve long suspected there’s a fetish out there — perhaps related to exhibitionism — for describing one’s kink to a stranger, and/or engaging them in conversation about it, or somehow inducing them to write about it. “Hey, would you write me some wank material please?” (Only, they usually don’t even say “please”.)
For some reason the people who have this fetish (or, at least, the ones I hear from) seem to have issues with comprehending boundaries and appropriate contexts, which tends to make their missives seem creepy, weird, inappropriate, gross, or some combination of these. Understand, I’m not talking about the people who comment on a blog post to share the hot ideas it gave them or their own accounts of doing something similar; that’s just normal conversation in this context. Nope, I’m talking about people who dive deep into the goopy details of their own detailed fantasy, without anything to contexualize the conversation or explain why they foolishly imagine I might want to participate in it with them.
If you’re not following me, Mistress Matisse has just republished a classic example of the genre, plus her inimitably humorous response. And, yes, it’s an “I need a spanking” email in its broadest outlines…
