It >was the norm, so I really wasn't all that embarrassed >about getting spanked bare. I was more afraid of the >pain from it. However, when I started school and >seeing kids getting spanked in school normally fully >clothed or on their underwear, also finding out not >all kids got bare bottom spankings at home, that's >when the concept of being spanked bare became more >embarrassing to me. So once I was six or seven the >spankings started to become more embarrassing as well >as painful. > >2) Did you find being spanked in front of girls was >significantly more embarrassing than being spanked in >front of boys? > >Oh hell yes. It was embarrassing to be spanked bare >period, but being a boy it was much more embarrassing >to me anyway, to be witnessed by girls than by boys. >Also, I was more fascinated by seeing a girl get a >spanking, especially when it was bare bottom than a >boy. Even in the family. It was always more >embarrassing to be spanked in front of my sister or >girl cousins than my brother or boy cousins and on the >flip side, it was more interesting to see my sister or >female cousins get spanked than the boys. The fact >that most of our spankings growing up were not done in >private, usually occurring in a common room like the >living room or kitchen, the opportunities to witness >spankings were pretty frequent. As were to >opportunities to be witnessed getting spankings. and >bless my mom's heart, she was not shy at all about >spanking one or even all of us when it was needed, >right on the spot. > >3) Was public spanking the most embarrassing form of >punishment you experienced in childhood? More >embarrassing than in front of family? > >The answer to that is a resounding yes. Having people >see me getting my bare bottom spanked in public made >it the most embarrassing. There was a time when I was >six, Mom spanked me in church because I was >misbehaving. Every Sunday morning there was a >communion where they passed trays of plastic shot >glasses filled with communion wine (unchilled grape >juice) and I could not get it through my thick head >that I was NOT supposed to drink it because I wasn't >baptized. I had gotten my hands smacked for trying to >grab a glass several times so I knew better. Well one >Sunday I was determined to get a drink and as the tray >was being passed by me I grabbed a glass and drank it >quickly, bumping the tray causing some of the glasses >to spill. Mom quickly apologized then she grabbed me >and put me over her knee right then and there and >pulled my pants and underwear in back and tanned my >little butt good. Then pulled my pants back up and sat >me down hard on my now sore butt telling me "Don't you >ever do that again!" As I sat holding my butt crying, >Mom leaned closer to me and told me, "Stop crying or >I'll really give you something to cry about, right >here in front of God and Everybody." Then I started >looking around and seeing people staring at me and >knowing that not only did a large group of people see >me getting my bare bottom spanked, EVERYBODY in the >church HEARD it. After church was over a lot of people >both adults and kids alike stared at me. That's when I >first learned how embarrassing getting your bare >bottom spanked in public could really be. It took me >quite some time to get over the embarrassment of that. > > Also that little sip of that grape juice was not >worth the embarrassment or pain of the spanking >because I learned to my chagrin, that warm grape juice >tastes hideous. Thinking back, maybe mom should have >made me drink more of it to punish me instead of >spanking me(laughs). > >4) If you were threatened with a spanking, did you >behave yourself more from fear of the pain from the >spanking or the embarrassment of having to bare your >bottom? Were they both equal deterrents? Perhaps it >changed as you grew older? > >When I was little, five or younger it was the fear of >the pain straight up. I got my first spanking at three >and knew I was not a fan right away. We lived on base >housing and honestly the military vehicles would come >through fast and would not stop for anything. I was >playing in the yard in front of our apartment and ran >out into the street. Mom was close by and grabbed me >by my overalls then pulled me out of the road, picked >me up and carried me to the porch as she scolded me, >then she sat on the porch unfastened my overalls and >pulled them and my underwear down giving me my first >bare bottom spanking. Other than earaches which I had >a lot of in those days, It was the most painful thing >that had experienced at that point in my life. So the >threat of the pain of the spanking was most impressive >to me at that time. As I got older, bare bottom >spankings became more embarrassing to me and knowing I >would have to pull my own pants down instead of having >them pulled down, made it even more embarrassing. That >went on until my last spanking at fifteen. It wasn't >even so much that my sister or someone else might see >me exposed as much as it was having to expose myself >for the spanking that was the incentive to behave. > >5) Based on what your mother said about embarrassment >surrounding bare bottom spanking, to be specific does >that mean she believed embarrassment was the most >important part of the punishment when it comes to >spanking, more important than pain, because it has the >longest and most powerful effect? > >I don't know if that was the case exactly. My mom was >a small woman, five foot nothing and at times less >than a hundred pounds, but when you got her upset >enough to spank you, she was the Incredible Hulk. She >knew how to give very effective spankings and no >matter how tough or stoic you tried to act. she would >leave you in tears. Even when I got my last couple of >spankings at fifteen. But the pain aside, she was >aware that the act of us having to pull our own pants >down and take a spanking intensified the embarrassment >and had a really strong effect. So when she threatened >to spank she usually included "pull down your pants" >and/or "spank your bare butt/ass" in the threat. Also >in public she would either say "right here and now" or >"In front of God and everybody". Then there was the >psychological factor of threatening to do it loudly >enough for the people in the immediate area to hear >the threat. Which face it, when you hear somebody >threatening to spank their child, your ears perk up a >little and if they threaten to do it bare, they have >your full attention. For instance, my former >girlfriend and I took her grandson to the Louisville a >few years ago. We decided to take a break and eat at >one of their cafe's. There was an eight or nine year >old boy who had been bratty and she mom after a couple >of somewhat subtle spanking threats, took him to a >nearby restroom. When they came out a few minutes >later, I could see he had obviously been crying. So he >got spanked. They came back to their table and the >woman who also had children asked her if she had >spanked him. The place was noisy and crowded but when >I heard the word "spanked" my ears tuned to that >conversation like the rest of the area had suddenly >gone silent. I heard the mother say, "yes I blistered >his bare little butt." Then she said to her son, "and >you'd better straighten up boy, because if you think >for one minute I won't pull your pants down and spank >your bare butt right here in front of anybody, you are >sadly mistaken. I won't tell you again." So yes I >think a parent knowing how much of an effect the >embarrassment of the spanking can have, will depend on >it when dealing with misbehavior, especially in public >situations. > >In closing, I want to thank you for your comments and >questions and You are very welcome. As a retired old >man, I have nothing but time on my hands, so I'll be >happy to address any questions you might have.
