I'm sure it is probably too late to question your parents about their feelings now, whatever happened has now gone. The thing is, whatever the law, you seemed to accept their choice of punishment as reasonable. Although the hot topic at the moment is "historic" abuse, I have no doubt you won't put your experiences into that category. Have you ever thought what would have happened if you had refused to bend over, saying that spanking was illegal and no way would you submit to it? Would they have listened? Out of interest, are you prepared to say which country you reside in?

I'm sure you will have noticed on other threads here that I often wonder if some parents have an ulterior motive in giving spankings, especially if they are fairly frequent, sometimes quite harsh, and ritualistic in nature. I am not suggesting for one minute that yours were/are like that. I know that growing up a quick slap was enough to bring me up short, and the one time, about 10 y/o, I got the back of my legs smacked by a lady teacher (quite justifiably I might add!) it certainly made me ensure I didn't repeat that particular bad behaviour again. Would a bare bottom spanking, with hairbrush or belt, have had any better result? Do you see my point?

Despite the above, I am not averse to corporal punishment being used in a fair, controlled way. But then I'm a spanko, so would say that, wouldn't I?! And I do like reading about true experiences, whether I agree or not.

I'm in Germany, my family moved here from Ukraine when I was very little. What would have happened had I refused to accept a spanking is something I have often speculated about. My guess is that once they understood I was serious, they would not have insisted, but they would have been deeply insulted ... because they would have felt that me pointing to that ban meant that I felt somehow that their methods amounted to some form of abuse.

Your point about the "quick slap" is a common one, and for younger children it sounds convincing. Another point of view would be that the "quick slap" is actually worse because it means that your parents/teachers can just do it while the "ritual" of bending over requires some form of cooperation however that is motivated.

I'm a spanko at least in the sense of enjoying stories and discussions, particularly about settings were corporal punishment is widely accepted as a part of growing up and does not carry the stigma that it has in the reality of my society. However, when it comes to the question of whether one should still spank when it's illegal, I'm beyond averse. I think it's a stupid idea because you should not be completely out of step with the society around you on such a sensitive issue. Realising that social services might knock on the door when some busybody gets wind of that spanking you got last night, is not a fun place for a child to be in.
