>>Once again whilst scrolling through the Handprints >>Forum I stumbled across a post from someone called >>Paul! Again his memories and experiences were very >>reminiscent of my own! Were they similiar to other >>members of this forums also? Feel free to share! >> >>SUMMERS AND SPANKINGS >> >>Swimming both in local swimming pools and rivers; ice >>cream on a really hot day; games of cowboys and >>indians (or as they are referred to today 'native >>Americans'); cops and robbers; building our own camps; >>and all kinds of other fun and games! And of course, >>sometimes getting into a bit of mischief, as well! All >>very innocent in comparison with what happens, so >>often, today! One of my favorite pastimes, however, >>and I think I speak on behalf of most of my playmates >>also, was watching, overhearing and hearing about >>other kids getting spanked! Whenever a spanking was >>taking place, if there were any kids in the immediate >>vicinity they would congregate in the area where it >>was happening; typically outside of a apartment or >>house, near to a window; or sometimes behind a fence, >>bush or tree, to listen to the proceedings! If we were >>especially lucky, and the spanking was given out in >>the open, as often was the case, then we got a full >>visual experience as well! Often the adult >>administering the punishment would be very happy for >>us to watch the spanking; indeed, sometimes he/she >>would command us to stay where we were and witness the >>whole event! They evidently felt it would add an extra >>element of humiliation to the whole procedure for the >>kid getting their butt blistered; also it was thought >>that it acted as further deterrent to the rest of us >>to behave ourselves, which it certainly did! Sometimes >>the adult would even ask whether any of the other >>youngsters who had just witnessed the spanking needed >>one themselves; to which we would or reply in unison; >>"no Ma'am/Sir!" And, at this point, we would quickly >>disappear! Of course, if we were watching or listening >>secretely, then we had to be a lot more discreet, >>since we ran the risk of being discovered, which could >>of course result in our own bottoms being tanned! Like >>with you, OldGuy48, their would be much giggling and >>nervous laughter; and we, if we did not know the kid >>getting spanked and thier family, would try to guess >>whether the punishment was being given with the hand >>or with an implement! We also would try and judge >>whether or not the spanking was being administer on >>the bare behind! In the latter case, virtually all >>spankings, in those days, were bare bottom ones; and a >>bare bottom spanking had a distinct sound all of its >>own, anyway! In the former case, we became quite adept >>at ascertaining what implement was being used to give >>the spanking! A hairbrush had its own distinct sound; >>especially when connecting with bare buttock flesh! On >>impact with the recipients backside, it would make >>either a loud thud; or if it achieved a really good >>application it would impart an unmistakable cracking >>sound as it left a particularly burning sting and >>smart! The howls and screams that ensued from these >>hairbrush spanks were especially loud, vocal and >>heartfelt! I remember how we would collectively wince >>when those really ear splitting cracks of a hairbrush >>landed! The wooden spoon tended to have more of a >>'pop' to it when it made its stinging report on a >>naked backside! The strap again had a sound all of its >>own! The swish through the air, culminating in a >>almighty crack as the leather wrapped it self around >>the miscreants behind! The screams, howling and crying >>that ensued from a strapping was something to behold! >>But the most vocal reaction(s) were produced from >>whuppings with the switch! The build up to the moment >>of impact with this 'instrument of pain and suffering' >>was very subtle and understated! You would hear a >>faint whizzing noise as the switch travelled through >>the air; followed by an emphatic thwack as the >>flexible, slender and whippy branch wrapped its >>'business end' around some unfortunate youngsters >>derriere! Because of it quieter and less vocal mode of >>operation, we kids called the switch 'the slient >>assassin'! The screams, shrieks and painful howling, >>however, that accompanied a switching were like >>nothing else you have ever heard in your life! Almost >>other worldly in fact! Even the most sadistic and >>least compassionate of us kids would, before a lengthy >>switching was finished, be feeling sorry for the boy >>or girl on the receiving end! The marks left from a >>severe switching were incredible to witness! I knew >>one boy, whose father had thrashed him with a pear >>tree switch. From seeing them (the marks on his >>buttocks and legs) in the communal school shower each >>week I can testify that the marks took a full 5 weeks >>to completely disappear! It was interesting watching >>the reactions of the other kids when seeing and >>hearing a spanking taking place! At first invariably >>there was amusement and excitement mixed with >>apprehension and fear! As the punishment progressed, >>though, and the reactions of the kid getting spanked >>became more and more abject, desperate and plaintive, >>those feelings became increasingly replaced with ones >>of compassion, pity and sympathy! We all knew from >>bitter and painful experience JUST HOW MUCH SPANKINGS >>AND WHUPPINGS HURT! Indeed some members of the group >>sometimes found the whole cacophony hard to listen to, >>and would depart before the performance was over! But >>I do look back with fondness and nostalgia to those, >>long hot summers back in the '60s and '70s! For me, >>anyway, halcyon days, indeed!! >My summers were in the 40s and 50 s and in a small >town in the Midwest a lot of fun but a lot of >spankings if we did not behave we had once piece >swimsuits they came off for a spanking but we were >taken to a shed or a garage if boys were present but >got or spanking anyway
