Maddie "Just to get some historical perspective, what year were you a junior?"
I graduated from college in 1969.
M "Do you think other girls your age got as many spanking as you did?"
I don't think most people today realize how much spanking was built into life in the 50s. I lived in the proverbial small Midwest town. No stoplights, no parking meters, church three times a week, PTA patrolling the movie theaters and LOTS of spankings!
You were expected to spank your children and hard. We children expected to get spanked. Implements were normal. Belts, paddles, hairbrushes, straps, there were even a few razor strops around then. Leaving marks was considered normal, although severe cases were frowned on. Not reported, of course, but people tsch tsched.
When I got into Jr. High, we had Phys Ed and the locker rooms could give you a good idea of who'd been spanked recently. You'd see an embarrassed girl trying to keep her rear end to the wall while she changed, but there was no hiding in the shower room and you'd see that her rear end was covered with stripes. Of course, I'd swear some girls were proud of their marks and would flaunt their decorated rears.
One year in high school I had gym Monday, Wednesday and Friday. Just about every monday that winter, a girl named Donna come to school with her rear end, thighs and calves covered in bright welts. They didn't seem to bother her much, she didn't try to hide them and sometimes she'd joke about "Really getting it." They'd be faded on Wednesday, just about gone Friday and Monday she'd have a new set. She was one of the farm kids and I didn't know her family, but a lot of them were very religious and super strict..
Maddie "Do you think your girlfriends also got enemas and the soapy finger treatment?"
Well, as an inveterate bathroom snooper, I can report that EVERY house I ever visited had an enema bag in a drawer or cupboard and they all looked well used. It was not unusual to walk past a drug store and see an enema bag in the window. I also remember once when I was very young, being amazed at an eight ounce bulb enema syringe in a window and marveling at how enormously huge it was. (We had a one ounce baby syringe that was only used when we were babies. It was never thrown away and I sometimes used it as a rubber ducky in the bath.) Drug stores would have a dozen different syringes for sale and the dime store had one ounce baby syringes just like ours for 25 cents. Oh yes, Sears, Speigel and other mail order catalogs all carried "rubber goods" in the "sickroom supplies" section and the Mongomery Ward catalog had TWO pages of enema and douche syringes!
So I think a lot of little hinders got frequent waterings and I know we got weekly enemas at our house and so did my cousins. Fingers up the butt? I think some of my cousins did, but I don't know about anybody else.
Enemas after spankings? I know one of my aunt's gave them for the same reason mom did, but I never heard of anybody else.
M "Did you do the same with your kids?"
I didn't spank my kids. I was never convinced it was necessary (especially when i was being spanked) and just didn't do it after a few half hearted trys. But the main reason I didn't spank them was because my wicked boyfriend convinced me they were foreplay and it just didn't seem so appropriate after that.
I definitely gave them enemas, though. Once a week and as needed and for EVERYBODY including the wicked boyfriend. Serves him right.
M "Do you think it was pretty common then for college girls to get spanked by their parents?"
I don't really know. It was in my house and I know that at least two of my college friends got spanked on vacation, but that's all I know about.
M "Another subject. I have heard and read stories about dorm moms, sorority moms (whatever) and landladies for college girls who gave pretty severe spankings. Did you or anyone you know experience anything like that? Do you think it should be acceptable now?"
No idea. I was a commuter student. As for now, the "landlord" at this house has always been very strict when the kids were out of the house and became a real tyrant when the last one moved out and I find that very acceptable.
M "Sorry about all the questions, but it's pretty fascinating."
Thank you for asking, it's fun thinking about the old days.
P.S. In the 50s we also saw lots of spanking in the Sunday papers. Lulu, Little Audrey, Little Iodine and lots of others, children and adults, got spanked in the comics. I think a spanking was the punchline to half the Katzenjammer Kids strips. I think they got it with sticks, too. Adult ladies got spanked fully clothed, but female kids almost always got it on their panties. Most spankings were OTK.
P.P.S. Any John Wayne movie that didn't involve shooting enemy soldiers.
Also, every tourist trap souvenir shop carried at least one "joke" spanking paddle and my Much Hated Older Sister once found out they were no joke at all in a motel in Bismark, South Dakota, to my immense satisfaction.
Also also, about half the time we played house, at least if we had some privacy, a "bad girl" just had to be spanked. There was no lack of volunteers to go over "mommy's" knee and lots and lots of giggling. I recall pants coming down on a few occasions, but never panties. I was a frequent volunteer and this was before the wicked boyfriend had his way with me.
