Vintage Spanking Photos

This is a classic vintage spanking photo. It holds a lot more charm for me than its modern day counterparts. As many of you know, I like to look at the search terms to find out what people are looking for. One that comes up fairly often is vintage spanking photos. Despite my love of history, I haven’t given much thought to vintage photos of spanking in days gone by, so I decided I’d do an image search, and lo and behold it turned up pages of old images which I have to say I find appealing. The picture above is interesting and erotic to me because of the clothing that has to be lifted, the cane is ever present and I love canes, and the knowledge that if she was bent over just a tiny bit more you would get a nice peek of her lady bits, and because I could easily build […]

We Are Not Broken 20 comments

A couple of weeks ago I clicked on an ad on Fetlife.com that wanted people to take a survey about their involvement in kink. Out of curiosity and hoping for a chance to open some eyes at whatever university was seeking the information, I went ahead with it. Page after page had questions about giving and receiving pain, liking humiliation, having multiple sex partners. Nearly every single question, which was multiple choice or providing a rating of 1 – 5, centered on past abuse, substance abuse, being sexually promiscuous, and assumed every kink or fetish they listed was tied to sex. I forged ahead, becoming disgusted, but being determined because of my hope that there would be a box for comments. In the end there was, and I really did my best to clear things up, but the whole thing left me angry and annoyed that this university of supposedly highly […]

A Seductive and Savory Valentine Treat #DiningIn

  Mia struggled as she came through the back door balancing three full bags of groceries. She dropped her keys as one of the bags threatened to spill, tightening her arm around it, as she tried to swing the door shut. She growled in frustration, as the bags began to slip, then kicked the door closed behind her instead. She reached the table just as the paper sack clutched in her fingers ripped, sending oranges rolling across the floor. She dumped the rest of the bags on the table with a curse and a grimace, then gathered up the wayward fruit and quickly put the food away, finally spying the note resting on the kitchen counter. Her expression turned from a scowl to one of delight as she read Ethan’s instructions. Kitten,   Follow the trail of roses and read each message along the way. I have some surprises in […]


Why You Should Accept “Those” Kinks 30 comments

First I want to thank everyone who liked the BDSM and Aftercare post. It really took a great tour around the blogging world. It showed me that yes, Google’s new approach is working to get things out there, but those interested in kink and the importance of safety and knowledge do the job best. So again, thank you all for sending the Aftercare post hopping about. I have contacted several friends and invited them to write guest posts for this blog on subjects that I either have no experience with, or don’t feel I can speak in a voice that rings true. For those of us who live a kinky lifestyle, what we do, and who we are is part of the fabric woven into our lives. It doesn’t represent us, and it isn’t all there is to us, but it certainly is part of who we are. Along with […]

Jolie’s First Lesson #SatSpanks 28 comments

Today’s Saturday Spanks is from my historical romance, Lessons of Love. Jolie and Cole have been married much to her dismay, and now she is standing before him, naked and vulnerable on their wedding night. Cole ended his inspection of his new wife and strode over to the massive bed. He sat on the edge and beckoned her with his hands and eyes. It was time to take what was his, but first she had to be taught a lesson. There was no room for disobedience of any kind between a man and his wife. “I’m afraid you have to be punished love. You pushed my hands away and were defiant all day. You belong to me plain and simple, and you will do as I say the moment I tell you to. As your husband it is my job to make sure you are disciplined properly. A man can’t […]
