The Other Spanking Blog

This post hurts a little bit, but I gotta do it.

They say imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. I don’t agree — I think money is the sincerest form of flattery — but imitation is right up there.

A couple of months ago, I heard from some of the people (including the owner) at one of the bigger commercial spanking websites. They had noticed Spanking Blog, and wanted to know a little about what I was doing. They were curious and interested. We talked some business, exchanged some emails, and so forth. They wound up buying a banner ad, and I put up one of their affiliate banners on my spanking toplist and other places. Good business, productive exchange, yadda yadda.

Time passes. Then what to my wondering eye should appear, but a new spanking blog run by the owner of the company. First post: less than a week after the exchanges with me. And what’s it called? “The Spanking Blog.” The domain name? It’s “thespankingblog.com”.

I’ll be honest: all flattery aside, it made me grumpy. These guys have a well-established brand they could have leveraged, but instead, when it came to choosing a name or domain, they settled for imitation. I’ve emailed the owner, and we’ve had a frank exchange of views, and he of course doesn’t see it my way (although he’s frank in crediting me with prompting him to realize that there was an untapped market for his products in the blog world.)

But here’s the real kicker: He’s doing a damn fine job. His blog is good. Not very interactive, but with long essays about his time in the spanking business, and inside impressions of the models, with lots of good stories about what it’s like to produce spanking pictures and videos. All, of course, illustrated with the lovely photographs for which his company is justly famous. And designed by one of his on-staff designers, so it all looks smooth and professional.

By my own blogging standards, I have to link to him. You, my readers, will enjoy his blog, which is the only link criterion that’s truly important. But what I cannot bring myself to do, is to assist him in creating the brand confusion that he sought when he chose a name and domain so close to this blog’s. Thus, all future references and links on Spanking Blog will simply refer to “The Other One”. (That way, I won’t be contributing to the confusion between our spanking blogs that he seems to be hoping for.)

If you decide to link to The Other One, I hope you’ll join me in linking to it this way.

Spanking In Esquire Magazine

Here’s a spanking quote from the mainstream media:

Anybody can be turned on by a skillfully administered spanking — unless their personal history is getting in the way.
— Janet W. Hardy, 49, Oakland

As quoted in the January 2005 issue of Esquire.

Spanking And The Sex After

In Jezebel’s Secret Blog, she writes of her Master tying her over a high stool, spanking her, and then doing what you would expect:

but there is something new, something more on His agenda. it is face down over the seat of the high stool, hands tied to a waiting rope around the bases of its legs. it is sudden. i am not prepared for something new. He smacks my ass with his hands this time.

(lately, it seems, He’s brought spanking back with more … pain? more vigor? it hurts. that’s all i can say about it.)

hard. over and over. i’ve had a hard time counting, lately. He doesn’t require it, and He’s not stayed to the former “groups of three” idea. so i’m afraid to count. no predictions, no counting. spanking my ass hard. then fucking me. i thought i’d fall forward, but He had a good grip on my hips, squeezing his fingers into the places where it burned from the spanking. fucking me so hard, my hands gripped on the legs of the stool, inching my feet forward to help me balance. could feel only ass burning, pussy fucked, don’t fall

don’t fall

fucked hard. and then, suddenly, His cock in my ass. no, i can’t i haven’t i i i i he’s fucking my ass fucking my ass hard fucking fucking fucking and i’m beyond balance, beyond fucked only about cum in me hard cum i want my Master’s cum in my ass, Sir, please cum in my ass Master, please Sir, please Master, please please please please please

“No, I can’t, I haven’t….” The politically correct may continue to deny it, but sometimes “no” really does mean “yes”.

Dolcett Spanking Art

The BDSM artist Dolcett is infamous on the net for his extreme drawings of executions and asphyxiations and worse, but he also drew a fair number of “mainstream” (if severe) BDSM pictures. Here’s a very straightforward drawing of a buxom woman in bondage and crying as she receives a severe strapping:

Spanking Smiley

Bethie’s been busy with her new computer and her new animation software. If you’d been by her blog lately, you would have seen this nifty new spanking smiley:

That’s her on the right, from the look of mock astonishment when the paddle comes out, to the cute little feet stompy-stompy when it lands, to the big slow smile after.

We may never rule the world, but now that Bethie’s on the job, we are at least going to animate it a little.

Figging Pictures, Anyone?

I’m delighted to report that my Figging.com figging resources directory is now recommended by Mistress Matisse! She writes:

“A kinky man I know recently asked me my thoughts on figging, and I can do no better than to say go read this. I love ginger root…”

And while we are on the topic, do any of you delightful pervs out there have any figging photos or artwork that aren’t already on the site? I’m planning to update the figging directory soon, so if you know of any resources (especially visual) please email me with them or leave links in the comments.

The Best Spanking Of Her Life

Idunna from Of This Life writes about the best spanking of her life:

I can’t even describe how much I was tingling the whole time we were out doing errands. When we got home, I was immediately on my knees worshiping his manhood and then I assumed the position. THE BEST spanking of my life with a deliciously large vibrator poised inside just far enough to be ecstasy. Hands grasping ankles and ass high. It was amazing. The orgasm brought me to my knees, ass up and flower unprotected, he spanked me there as well. I had tears, it was so good. He let me climb on top finally and the sex was amazing. I was begging for things I never even thought I’d like, but he paid close attention and was very careful with me.

I always like to read about people having a spanking good time!
