Showing Off Her Plant

WFT!

I know  men are supposed to see this and think she is no nonsense woman who will cane them across the desk.

What I see is a cheesy plant in a cheesy jar on a cheesy desk and there is no space to bend over because of the plant.

Humiliation

This post was inspired by Kaelah’s recent post.

I think some degree of humiliation is desired by some tops and bottoms. It’s mutually beneficial when both desire the same. Bacall and I don’t happen to need it. Not sure if there is anything that would humiliate us. We are rather comfortable within our skin. If we did not want our grandkids to know more about us than they need to know, you would see pictures of us.

It could be that something that would have humiliated/embarrassed me at some point in my life no longer would. One of my first instances of preadolescent body embarrassment was when I was changing into my swim trunks on our houseboat. A family friend happened into the common cabin area while I had my pants down and I was mortified that she could see my bare bottom which I was trying to cover. As she retreated from the area, she remarked that it was my other side I should be covering. That was an epiphany for me.

All of my young life women, Mother and teachers, had been interested in my backside. I can not say I had sexual feelings about my bottom, but I knew I did not like female attention to it as it was always painful.

I tried to humiliate/embarrass some women I have spanked. It did not always work as they were blasé about exposing themselves in say the diaper position. With others I tried public nudity, flogging before a group. Nope, they reveled in being nude and showing they could take whatever was handed out. A few times, I was able to take them where they wanted to go, but it took careful listening, pondering and thoughtful action.

When I was 20-something, I would have been highly embarrassed if anyone, other than Bacall, knew that I liked to don panties. That was much more of a secret than my enjoyment of being paddled. Now, it not a big deal with me as I have found that women are accepting of the practice. Evidently, they have known men who wear panties and are inured to it?

The only paddling position that gives me a little embarrassment is knees and head on the floor with her standing over me.

It’s hard to get to an Alpha.

---

I would like to talk with a large group of women who have had extensive dating experience about their experiences with men who like to wear panties and be spanked. I would think I would need to talk to all age groups about this. Anyone out there that can write and obtain a research grant for me to do this?

Tennis Anyone?

I was never very good on the court. Of course, I was never backing her up either. This picture sure does create desire in me. Will Santa leave her under the tree for me?

Merry Christmas

Playmate or Domme

 

Same lass. Same bed. Your choice.

When offered a choice, I choose both.

Thanks, But I Really Don’t Care To See Your Hoohah

I came of age when Playboy was young. The girls were attractive, the parts were round and perky and everything was air brushed to exquisite perfection. Their plumbing was never depicted. A competitor magazine later did show full frontal nudity, but as I recall the legs were not spread and muffs were still in style.

It’s a new world now. I think every woman under 40 has her hoohah on the web. Usually with her legs spread, so one can imagine whatever folks who like this sort of thing like to imagine. I just scroll down.

I see this more and more on commercial spanking sites. Guess that’s why I retreat when I see it’s a commercial site. The situations are unreal, the women not all that attractive, they are being spanked for some flimsy reason, and spanked poorly. There they are with their tats and hoohah. Waxing gives women the adolescent look.

I will not be around when the now 25 year old woman’s kids find pictures of Mom with her legs spread. The kids will know for sure where they came from.

Curious to me is that women will show their faces along with their hoohah, but not their faces when being spanked. Explain that.

What is sexy to me

The Christmas Spoon

We had a friend that made us a wooden spoon with Santa's face on the bowl.  It has been a favorite toy since we received it over ten years ago.  It hangs on the mantle with our Christmas stockings and is used throughout the Christmas season.

This morning seemed like to good time to get into that fun Christmas feeling.  Being in a playful mood, we both dressed in red, after all it's Christmas and our bottoms would soon be the same delightful color.  I picked out our toys - the Santa spoon and the red paddle for both of us and then each of our favorite paddles.  First Santa popped our bottoms for a few minutes, then Bogey used my favorite paddle on me and I used his favorite on him.  We had a break for cuddling in between each paddle.  Then came the favorite/dreaded red paddle.  As mentioned in many other post, we have had the red paddle for many many years.  It endures and does not lose it's sting.  It was a fun and delightful way to play this morning.

Our paddle making friend recently passed away, so in his honor, "Merry Christmas and Many Spanks".

Then and Now

Posted without comment for someone’s Blog that we all enjoy.

Pain and Pleasure

A regular reader sent this picture.

I judged that it was not Monica, but the result of a man being spanked OTK and having a happy ending.

I wrote him back and said this is another situation where I am not with the mainstream bottoms. I could never come from a spanking. In fact, I lose my bone when I go OTK. I know this is a favorite of men from reading stories and listening to women talk about getting come on their skirts. It's just not me.

He replied: I wonder if it IS mainstream? Do all guys that enjoy getting spanked always get an erection before or during? I guess I'm not in that group since I seem to get aroused "mentally" rather than physically before or during a spanking. I can watch a spanking or think about getting spanked or giving a spanking and get turned on physically but when it comes to getting a boner right before going over the female lap it has rarely happened.

I guess my query is whether there are two types of spanko's... those that have a physical, sexual reaction to spanking... and those that have an emotional one. What role does sexual pain play, I wonder? Do you have to be at least somewhat masochistic to sexually enjoy getting a painful spanking? I know if I did sprout a boner before a spanking because of the sexually charged atmosphere, there's just no way I can imagine that I would keep it once the paddle or hairbrush began to introduce itself to my backside. For me maybe, I guess it's the "thought" of pain rather than the actual pain, that's sexy. I don't know... it's one of the mysteries of TTWD that I still don't have a good answer for. Feel free to enlighten me... please! LOL

Can any readers shed some light on this topic?

The Woodshed

In our new place, there is not enough enclosed storage for all of our tools. So we have acquired a storage shed – or what we will call the wood shed. We have always wanted a wood shed and we found one with a decent look.

I wonder whose panties are hanging on the door?

The back yard is private so one can be sent to and from the shed undressed. Ummm delicious.

An ideal woodshed

WTF - Not Spanking, Maybe Not Sex

Are they having a chat? Is she bored? Thinking of what to fix for dinner? Wondering if she won the lottery?

One way to while away an afternoon I suppose. But, shouldn’t one of them put a little enthusiasm into it?

This concludes your art history class for the week. Enjoy your weekend.

My Memory Of Bacall

I was enjoying reading Zelle’s Blog while slurping my first coffee and I noticed her top was down. I thought I don't think she has posted pictures like that before. And then I thought I saw a mic and thought Oh boy there will be a video clip. Well, what I thought was a mic was another type of electro-mechanical device. I wrote her that I thought it was great that she felt feel enough free to put it all out there. She plays like we do. Spanking is sexual. No time for that other stuff.

Anywho, her post made me recall something that happened long ago, in another universe, Bacall was being flogged before an audience of close friends. Everyone was around the fire enjoying it's
warmth while she was enjoying an all altogether different source of
warmth. She was bound to the wall but she was most definitely enjoying herself as I had never heard before. When she was turned facing us, I could see in her eyes that she was in a high state of arousal. I figured she was really enjoying the way the guy was handling her.

Shortly, another man that she had spent a long time with before dinner told me that he had put a remote control vibrator on her and he had the control in his pocket. Ah, that explained Miss Bright Eyes
reaction to the flogger.

Has she changed over the years? This morning Bacall was bent over wiggling and singing How do you like it? More, more, more!
Very disgraceful of her don’t you think?

Breaking Paddles - II

Bacall got around to reading the post. Amazing, she had something to say about it. It’s always rare, but appreciated, when Bacall writes.

I must comment on the broken paddle.  The first paddle pop stung.  So while I prepared myself mentally for next pop, something strange happens.  I hear the wind whistling through the holes, I feel something touch my bottom, but ever so lightly.  Then I hear, "You broke the paddle!"  Of course, I turned and looked.  It was lying on the floor and the handle was in his hand.  He had an look on his face like he just couldn't believe it.  There was lots of laughing and as reported, I as was very proud.  Then he fixed the paddle, made the handle very strong and I haven't laughed any more.

Note: The day she stops laughing will be her last.

Bacall Paddles Me OTK

Last week, Bacall hinted, again, that she was in the mood to paddle me OTK. This happens 3/4 times a year. Thankfully no more. So I got into the spirit and got out the glycerin to moisten my bottom. She got even more into the spirit by getting out a leather slapper with a steel reinforcer in it to use on my thighs.

After setting my legs on fire, I went OTK. She used her fav otk paddle, the red one, from our early marriage days. It has not lost a bit of sting. Thankfully, she paddled at a moderate pace and not too hard. I really tried to take it, I hoped to make it to 30 licks. She says I bailed at 22.

Wordpress users commenting on Blogger

I find it easy to comment on Wordpress Blogs. It remembers the information I used and fills in it for me.

For those Wordpress users that comment on Blogger, may I suggest something that should make the process simple for you. Get a Blogger ID. You don’t have to have a Blog to have a Blogger ID. You can be signed into Wordpress and Blogger at the same time, ditto Yahoo, etc.

Have a great weekend. Sunny and 70 here.

Breaking Paddles

Bonnie commented on a recent post about paddles. The gal was smiling and holding a long narrow paddle.

Hi Bogey,

I believe if you look carefully at the photo of the smiling woman, you will see the reason for her good humor. The paddle she is holding has split right down the center, presumably while assaulting her posterior. At this point, barring a backup paddle, the spanking is over and she has achieved a rare victory over a fierce foe.

There is definitely a feeling of accomplishment associated with proving oneself tougher than a wooden spanking paddle. For me, the only downside is that Randy is likely to select a thicker, heavier, and more painful  implement for next time.

Hugs, Bonnie

Thanks for reminding me of this Bonnie. I think Erica has posted about her delight in breaking paddles on more than once occasion.  Bacall does not have Erica’s iron bottom, but she delights in breaking paddles. I recall Bacall’s “admiration” of the Sherriff’s paddle that was sold by Raven Hill. With the large surface area and holes, it looked formidable, but it proved flimsy.

Picture of us, taken by us

On it’s first use, she bent over the couch and I whooshed it around to get her reaction to the air going through the holes. She clinched. I popped her and she squealed. Then she said I thought that it was going to sting, but it didn’t. I wound up and popped her again, but there was no sound. The handle had separated from the blade. Fortunately, we had backups.

 

Comments here are always appreciated and often led to a future post.

Google or Wordpress

I have heard from two folks that Google seems to make it hard for Wordpress users to comment.

I have no allegiance to the fine folks at Google. Should we change?

What Happened?

This is what I know so far.

Google sent me a warning note saying that OBB had been reported for posting copyrighted pictures. Four pictures were listed and they removed them. [I had already deleted a few dozen more that had been identified to me as being copyrighted]

Interestingly, of the four pictures cited, two were from the long distant B&W era and I really really doubt that anyone was claiming them. A third picture was one I took! I think that demonstrates the broad brush methods of the firm DMCA Enforcers, LLC, which represents the alleged copy-right holders. I say alleged, as many of the pictures did NOT have a water mark.

I have had more thoughts about Kelly Payne. DMCA Enforcers  was especially adamant about Kelly wanting us off-the-air. After a few days I recalled that I had posted about her on 10/12.

We have not bought a “pro” spanking video in years. While I have
long admired Kelly Payne’s still photo’s, I had never seen one of her
videos. I recently saw a clip and I was shocked. She was scolding the man in a very loud voice. I understand that is highly desired by some male bottoms, but it’s not where we go.

It was not exactly complimentary, but I have no use for shrill people, male or female. After seeing that clip of her, I would not care to be anywhere around her. It could have been that someone put her on to OBB?

Will the FBI show up here? I don’t know.

We all know of numerous Blogs where the only content is pictures. So DMCA Enforcers is sure as heck not trolling the web looking for violations. I think they earn their money only when someone reports a site.

I have about a dozen posts ready to go, but half of them use what may be a copy-righted picture, so I will not upload those. Bottom line, there may be fewer picture posts at OBB. But, there are hundreds of Tumblr sites for getting your fix.

Tan Lines–Round Two

It’s fetish Monday again.

Thanks to Tex for sharing these with us!

---

I would like to say that the pictures above are sexy to me. A lot more so than the ones we are all seeing too much of now. It seems that half of the women in the world have been photographed with their hoohaa’s fully exposed, sometimes with the lips drawn to one side.

It’s not sexy to me. If I wanted to see such I could have been a GYN.

Thanks for letting me vent. I must be getting old and in the way.

Seven From Bacall

1.  I am good & loving wife, mother, and grandmother.
2.  I am a loyal and supportive friend.
3.  I am a blonde and know how to play the part.
4.  I appreciate spending time chatting/giggling with my girlfriends.
5.  I love to travel.
6.  I do not tolerate negative people.
7.  I love to read mysteries that have a little romance.

Hope you and yours will enjoy the holiday.

Seven Things

I enjoy seeking out remote locations in the 11 western states. Places with nothing but horizon.

A small town in Florida had a statue of my great, great grandfather in the town square.

I am a long time member of Athletics Anonymous. Anytime I think about exercising, I call my sponsor and she brings over a chocolate bunt cake.

I drink about two cola's a year. My fav beverages are sweet ice tea and Ardbeg Whisky. [Not together]

I have spanked over 100 women. None of them as much fun as spanking Bacall.

Bacall says I am very compassionate and that I talk too loud.

OBB May Go Poof - II

I think I know why the copyright police are on us. I recently said that Six of the Best had posted here and on MBS of his hatred of Sarah Palin. I am thinking that his response to my post was put the dogs on us. That would be would be what a coward would do.

So this one is for SOB.

I don't know if we will be shut down or not, but I am going to trim the 500-odd posts here anyway. The site is archived.

I am not going to put up spanking related posts until this is resolved.

In response to a remark that comments are more difficult to post with Dynamic Views, I have reverted to a prior template. Maybe that's why comments dropped to near zero.

Asking For It–In Application

This is a spanking Blog, so we should be writing about our spankings. Well, we have and we will, but we have already told you everything. It is real difficult for us to write something new and interesting about our spanking play.

Ken of SpankedByMyLady commented on our post about holey paddles which created a few email exchanges about paddles which in turn resulted in my recalling a 9ply birch plywood I made many years ago. This sucker is round and 3/4” thick. It packs a wallop. I found it in the old toy bag along with several of it’s chums which had not seen daylight in years. I selected four of them for a paddle party and told Bacall to select her toys for a joint session the next day.

When Bacall saw one of the paddles, she cooed and said it was one of her favs – to use on me. Thanks Ken for a great paddling! Bacall used everyone of them on me.

What did Bacall select for herself? Her holey paddle and the Teacher’s paddle. I was pleased to put some color in her bottom with them.

So that’s how we ask for a paddling around here. Not all are spankings are requested, but all are fun and consensual.

---

Here’s Ken’s Cora with one of his well made holey paddles.

And may I say that Cora is rather well made herself.

I don’t know about you, but my bottom clenches up a bit thinking how Cora might use that paddle. I think I know the drill - bend bare bottom over the stool and hold on tight to the lower rungs and wait for the whoosh and then the burn. Would she allow me to catch my breath before the next lick?

I would like to say that I appreciate that Ken and Cora feel free to share pictures of themselves. And even sent me this picture which I have not seen before.

---

Thanks to those of you who do comment. It often results in an idea for a post.

Asking For A Spanking

Asking For A Spanking – In our first married years, we did not ask each other for spankings. I relied on her to read my mind and Bacall used behavior. Neither worked very well for us. I was working full-time and carrying a full class load. I had only a few hours a week of down time and I usually did not use it to focus on her behavior. Her behavior was never bratty, but it was designed to get my attention to jerk her chain a little.  Meanwhile, I was continually disappointed that she did not read my mind and paddle me more often.

Years later, when the kids were gone and life settled down for us, we gradually evolved to asking for what we want, when, where and how we want it. This works for us. Reading other Blogs, I seldom see any mention of this practice. Commonly, I read that some behavior is required for a spanking. Evidently, most people need a reason to spank or to be spanked.

I saw this in the Pink Report. It describes, not us, but some of us.

…. there are those of us who don’t actually like to be spanked. We want the lecture and the forgiveness, not the actual spanking. If we could skip it, we would. But the speech before and the reconciliation after would not feel the same without the submission and the spanking in the middle. We know it wouldn’t be the same without the spanking. Spanking is the taxi we hail to arrive at our destination.

Contrast this need with how Erica Scott likes it; spanking that takes her a blissful place divorced from sex.

We may be spanking enthusiasts, but we are all so different. It seems that the more we say after we say we like spanking, the farther apart we become.

Bacall writes: The most important thing for us is that we both have a good time. We are never disappointed because we get what we want and have no problem asking for it. Perhaps another way to put it is that we are both “only child”  – “I want what I want when I want it and the way I want it”.

Sometimes the paddling is erotic, but sometimes it is just needing to feel the paddle on the bottom. You know what I’m talking about – that pleasant sting that stays with you for a while and brings a smile to your face.

Choosing the implement – MBS recently did a Brunch asking if sound was a factor in a spanking. For most it was not that important. What interested me was that only a few bottoms had any say about what implements would be used.

Bacall continues: It is common for us to ask for certain implements to be used. Sometimes, one of us will suggest a toy and the spankee will counter with the desire for another toy. Since we spank each other to give pleasure, it makes sense to honor the bottoms needs.  Sometimes I will just take my favorite paddle to Bogey and say this is what I need.

Oh, and yes we both like the rifle report sound made when a paddle strikes a bare bottom in a live room. Bacall really likes it when she gets the paddle to report on my bottom. I will hear something like “That was a good one”.

In our new home, the acoustics are very live, especially in the kitchen and den.

 

Short Plaid Skirts

It’s Fetish Monday

Bless the lasses who wear them and make us drool

Sweet Dreams

As a spanking enthusiast, the lyrics of Sweet Dreams always had an appeal to me. I don’t recall anyone else mentioning it in the spanking context.

Sweet dreams are made of this
Who am I to disagree?
Travel the world and the seven seas
Everybody's looking for something
Some of them want to use you
Some of them want to get used by you
Some of them want to abuse you
Some of them want to be abused

I'm gonna use you and abuse you
I'm gonna know what's inside
Gonna use you and abuse you
I'm gonna know what's inside you

Eurythmics – 1983

Kinda sums up how a top thinks don’t ya think?

Love Our Lurkers

Dear Gentle Readers,

The most popular Blog for spanking enthusiasts, My Bottom Smarts, (whose name this humble Blog corrupted without shame or guilt), has called for the sixth Love Our Lurkers Day. Bacall and I encourage both of our readers to post to as many spanking Blogs as they can. The experience will be self-rewarding.

It does not matter what you say, anything would be most welcome. No need to be clever or witty.

Tan Lines

I like the bottom out-lined either with lingerie or the old fashi0n way with tan lines. I understand that modern women no longer have tan lines, but can’t old men have a preference for things of the past? Could the enjoyment of tan lines be a fetish?

I started this post weeks ago. Meanwhile, Bonnie was on vacation and wrote about her tan line.

I moved the chaise out into the sunlight and hiked up the leg openings of my bathing suit to expose the outer two thirds of my bottom. I spent the next half hour prone on the chaise, reading my book and soaking in some vitamin D.
When I got up, I went inside and removed my swimsuit. To my delight, I now had diagonal tan lines in the shape of a wide "V" across my bottom.

No wonder I enjoy her Blog.

Remember when barber chairs were sought after and common in homes?

Remember the Flip hair style? Then you are old! The Flip was popular when this furniture was stylish.

This one has my fav tan lines.

Have you asked for your spanking today?

It’s About Spanking

Someone who comments frequently on several Blogs, sometimes here. He has some obsession with Sarah Palin, as he left a negative comment here about her. The more folks go off on Sarah, the more I like her. The conservatives do have the better looking women.

This person recently wrote in same vein: …. how about a political role playing one, matching Sarah Palin, and Michele Bachmann. Which ever one of these ladies, makes the most 'gaffs' during this political season, is given 'six of the best', with a cane, on her bare bottom, by the President.

I have a CONSERVATIVE blog and I don’t talk politics there. How about keeping comments about Sarah et al off of spanking blogs.

Friday and WTF

I saw this on Barely Pink and can not resist re-posting it.

Given her expression, how would you caption it?

Is the whip for her or someone else?

Happy  Friday

Bullet Bras

Another walk down memory lane. Hermione posted about bras with an inflatable bladder. These bras are sans air pressure for effect, but I like the effect.

I got a D in Math in the seventh grade because Becky was the first in our grade to bloom and bloom she did in bullet bras and white fuzzy sweaters.

The basic style

Before and after

Styles that make me drool. Lingerie and spanking go together.

Pardon me while I find and ravish Bacall.

Original Sin

 

Posters for Original Sin hard cider.

They sort of quicken your pulse don’t they?

Lingerie Day

It’s Fetish Monday 

Aren’t these handy?

Bacall and I both like these

Just an ordinary lass wearing a garter belt, hose, heels and a short plaid skirt.

WTF–You Caption This One

Does he pass the audition?

Girdle Spanking

It’s Fetish Monday.

Gentle reader Tex sent me some notes about girdles and spanking and got me revved up on the subject – again. So this is all his fault. While we both embrace our fetish of women wearing girdles, Tex wants to go over their Lycra covered laps, while I am more eager to paddle their girdled bottoms.

I am equally ardent about wearing a not much control panty girdle before Bacall puts the wood to me. It just a fun thing for us. Where the fetish came from I have no idea. It’s much like why do any of us like spanking.

I was looking forward to our both donning panty girdles for our first play on our road trip, but in all the pre-trip confusion Bacall did not pack one. I like for us to put them on and snuggle for awhile before we paddle each other. I like to rub her Lycra covered bottom. The fact is that we both get to rubbing each other until we are hot and it’s all we can do to stop and paddle each other.

This is the picture Tex sent. The italicized text is his.

Just curious, can you predict a spanko's predilections for ladies lingerie by the generation they were born in? I guess if so then I feel sorry for those born in the latter 60's early 70's when pantyhose replaced the stockings, nylon panties and girdles women wore during my youth when I was secreting all those department store catalogs into my bed at night....

Pantyhose were generally available in 1965, but it was the early 70’s when they became the bane of “romance”.

I agree Ladies lingerie has seriously gone downhill in my way of thinking. I'm sure the ladies wouldn't agree but danggit... the fact is that lingerie from the 50's and 60's just made a hot gal... even hotter. That glimpse of bare thigh above nylons... the FEEL of silky nylon panties beneath her tight skirt or jeans... yummy!  Imagining what lying over those nylon clad thighs would feel like? Sigh... I miss the good 'ol days Bogey, truly there is much to miss. In the meantime, gals like Ms. Bacall and Mrs. Tex are still hot, right? At least THAT ain't changed a bit!

A glimpse of bare thigh was certainly exciting. But that thrill is lost to “progress”. Now we have bare legs. Oh well, Tex and I will not be around forever and with our generation will die the attraction for such lingerie. Just like a cod piece.

Mary Louise Parker

 

Under fantasy spankettes, I would include Mary Louise Parker.

 

 

I so want to paddle her!

Happy Friday

Monday’s Fetish - Bondage

On Monday’s, the last few weeks, we have posted examples of several different fetishes in case some of you wanted to acquire a new one to add to your repertoire. The thought of taking on a new fetish might make you a bit apprehensive, but it can also be highly enjoyable.

I know I am reaching here, but have you ever thought that some lingerie seems like bondage? No? Well here are five for your consideration. And even if it’s not bondage to you, I think you will agree that all the pictures share something in common. They  are all highly spankable.

 

 

 

501

Wednesday marked 500 posts for our little Blog. Yes, many of the posts were nothing but a picture or two and that has been especially true this year, since our life has become a little more hectic.

When MBS recently celebrated it's sixth anniversary I commented that Bonnie, gave us our theme - that spanking is fun. There were and are many Blogs about spanking as adult discipline. There are darn few that  write about the fun and erotic aspects of spanking. We plan to continue with more of the same.

We understand that OBB will always be a niche Blog as we are both switches and we switch with each other. That makes us as rare as inhabited planets.

Speaking of fun erotic spankings, Friday morning we are going to enjoy one. We hope you will join us.

Fancy Butt

 

OK, OK, here is the fancy butt you wanted to see.

Monday’s Fetish

Looking for a new fetish? Join me in admiring women who ride to the hounds in tight riding pants. Yes, there is a crop involved. Normally used on the seat of their pants.
