Support Spanking Porn Producer Heroes

There’s a ton of excellent spanking porn coming out of the United Kingdom. And it is now in jeopardy from the latest round of bat-shit crazy UK censorship laws. Pandora from Dreams Of Spanking writes:

Today in the UK, the law changed regarding the sort of content that can be sold online.

Under the new legislation, UK distributors are no longer allowed to sell content depicting bondage and gags, fisting, public sex, age play, facesitting, urination, female ejaculation, and spanking and caning beyond that deemed “transient and trifling”.

In one fell swoop, I and most other independent fetish porn producers in the UK have been criminalised. Many spanking producers are already making changes to their sites – including taking free trailers down, moving their base of operations outside the UK, or even taking their site offline entirely.

As for spanking – well, any image that shows bruising, welts, or marks beyond a slight redness are now restricted. So that’s Dreams of Spanking, my fairtrade, feminist spanking site, well and truly implicated.

Pandora’s post has a lot more detail and links and commentary about the law and some of its ludicrous sexist implications. But what’s going to be the effect on her site and her business? What is she actually going to do? She says:

I’ve had people sending me this information for the last few weeks, asking what I intend to do, and my answer has been the same every time. If you think that this legislation is going to send me running and hiding, you are mistaken. I have no intention of helping the bigots by self-censoring, and I’m certainly not going to pre-emptively shut up shop.

That’s brave, and it’s good news for those of us who like her work. But it’s also risky. Somebody like her will inevitably be charged and become a test case, with life’s work and liberty on the line. Her final paragraph is aimed at those who want to help. If you’re a UK citizen, the best thing is to get politically active on this issue! And if you are not, you can still donate to UK free speech organizations and support fetish pornographers by subscribing to their work. As Pandora puts it:

So what can you do? Well, you can tell your journalist friends about it and get them to write articles about how stupid and harmful this is. You can talk to your mates about it, post about it on social media, and raise the chances that the next time this comes to trial, the jury will think this legislation is a load of rubbish. You can donate to Backlash UK and join the Open Rights Group (of which I am a member), both of whom are campaigning on this issue. You can write to your MP. And you can support your local independent queer and fetish porn producers by buying their porn while you still can.

Fair Trade Spanking Dreams

Congratulations seem to be in order for Pandora Blake and her crew at Dreams Of Spanking, who give every impression of having been principally responsible for a righteous education delivered via detailed interviews to the Guardian reporter who wrote this excellent article about fair trade porn that appeared on Saturday. And why am I not as surprised as the reporter that Pandora’s home looks like that of “a young academic, who for some reason needs high-spec recording equipment”?

What Blake does could never be generated by a computer. The film she’s making – a futuristic dystopia in which men have been abolished – sounds a bit muesli on paper; but the landscape of bondage, fetish and futurism is incredibly unmuesli. The shoot looks pretty lo-fi (Blake’s flat, which she sometimes uses as a location, looks like the home of a young academic, who for some reason needs high-spec recording equipment). Confusingly, you can see real human beings in Blake’s films. Even more confusingly, I love it.

I was pleased to see Pandora unpack the too-common confusing between ethical porn and feminist porn, which can often overlap, but do not necessarily do so:

Feminism is not a prerequisite when it comes to making ethical porn, Blake says. “Feminist porn is explicitly focused on women’s desires and sexuality. So, for example, the belt-whipping scene where I got the life thrashed out of me, that I would say is feminist, because it’s about my journey and my sexuality. Whereas I think it’s possible to produce male-gaze porn in an ethical and fair trade way. That means complete respect for performers, for their boundaries and consent. If someone says no, you don’t ask again, you don’t ask last minute in the middle of a scene. You don’t trick them into doing stuff. You pay them. It’s not only all of those principles, but also communicating that to your audience.”

There’s a whole lot more. Good job, Pandora and D and AJ!

Erica Scott Gets Hairbrush Spanked

It’s very good to see Erica Scott doing a spanking scene for Dreams Of Spanking; her indomitably bratty attitude and great good humor are great ingredients in any spanking film.

These pictures are from The Workaholic, in which Erica gets a little bit too frisky trying to interrupt and seduce her workaholic husband. Tearing up his papers probably was a bit over the top — but it works, by damn! She gets both his attention and a well-spanked bottom.

Hand Spankings Can Hurt

I was amused to see Pandora Blake “dancing with trolls” in the comments section of her Dreams Of Spanking blog; she took on with professional politesse a commenter called Bacchus who was derisive about an OTK hand spanking delivered to one of her male models as part of a punishment scenario. I’m not 100% sure the commenter was trolling by design, but with phrasing like “The idea is to cause him pain, not give him a thrill. Does she like his pee-pee on her dress?” and “the idea is to cause him pain, use an implement” the effect was purely troll-tacular.

As Pandora rightly points out, hand spankings can hurt plenty. I’m a lazy top and I often prefer to use an instrument for greater effect (more better wiggling!) with less effort, but it’s a preference, not a law of nature. What say you, Spanking Blog readers? Is there one among you who is willing to go out on the “hand spankings don’t hurt” limb with Bacchus? Because I think that’s a foolish assertion, likely to end in tears in a universe that has any justice in it.
