Items of interest regarding all things spanking

In Praise of the Belt
by dan2bend

As a spanking tool, the belt to a man is much like the hairbrush is to a woman: it is an everyday item that goes almost everywhere with you and raises not a single eyebrow. Yet, it is always ready and easy to implement. As a spanking implement, it is a common article that arouses little suspicion of its spanking possibilities, and as mentioned, it can go almost anywhere with you without a hint of its hidden purpose. That's not something you can say for the bath brush or riding crop, whip, paddle or even wooden spoon.

After all, who but a chef goes to work with a wooden spoon in his back pocket? And unless you happen to be going horseback riding, walking around flicking a riding crop against your thigh like a Nazi Field Marshall would only cause murmurs and a possible police inquiry. And unless you are Dr. Indiana Jones, you'd never get away with carrying a whip!

No, the belt and hairbrush are the most easily portable and less suspicious tools in the spanker's arsenal. But, these two tools share another interesting feature: they both lend themselves to gender identity.


All spanking implements are generally associated with other non-spanking uses. All except the wooden paddle, of course, whose sole existence is for delivering spanks. Found carrying a paddle, one had better be either a school teacher or a fraternity pledge ... or be ready with an explanation!

The wooden kitchen spoon, bath brush, butter pat, and other household items of spanking utility all have other purposes. They are also associated with specific functional utilities that can be easily used by either man or woman. I have to admit, however, that the bath brush gives me a certain prurient thrill. There is a spot, exactly in the middle of my back, that I cannot reach by hand when showering. That long handled brush just reaches it exactly and as I scrub my mind wanders to the last time I used the FLAT side of the brush on a recalcitrant young lady. Those thoughts have an obvious causal effect evident on the opposite side of my body which has occasionally seen me late to work.

The hairbrush, however similar in portability and camouflage to the belt, is distinctly feminine. Don't misunderstand! There is nothing feminine about the results of a good hard hairbrush spanking as any spankee will attest, but very few men can carry a hairbrush with them at all times. One just does not pull a hairbrush from his back pocket or suit coat!


Similarly, the belt is a masculine spanking tool. Certainly, there are some modes of dress in which women would don a belt, but not many. It is difficult to wear a belt with many dresses or skirts simply because they were not designed to be worn with a belt. And many women refuse to wear a belt with pants because it has the effect of drawing the eyes to the hips ... and most women, including the ultra-skinny super models, think their hips are too big. No, attention to the hips makes belts anathema for most women!

Besides that, have you stopped to examine women's belts? Surely there are normal leather items, but many (if not most) are frail, light and totally unsuitable for delivering a real spanking. No, the belt is a distinctly male spanking tool whether it is a dress belt or that well used casual leather belt I wear with my jeans.

The belt is also a symbol of my status as a spanker. Every morning I am reminded by the supple feel of this strip of leather as I pull the belt through the loops in my pants. That simple act is a reaffirmation of the belt's effectiveness. Later that night I will remove the belt in a reenactment of the ritual one goes through when the belt is about to be employed for spanking duties. The simple leather garment not only encircles my waist, the daily routines of dressing and undressing complete a symbolic cycle of its utility.


What spanker does not know the fear in the eyes of a miscreant as the belt is unbuckled? And what sheer, unbridled thrill it is for the spanker to watch the sudden stiffening of the miscreant as the belt whispers through the belt loops! The anticipation that is necessary as the belt is prepared for use is emotional hell for the spankee.

Close your eyes and imagine your spanker removing his belt. That's right, HIS belt, because you cannot imagine this being done by a woman whether you, the reader, are male or female. Don't visions of your father or grandfather come to mind?

I have heard the swish of the cane on both ends of the swing. It is a unique and fearsome sound just before impact, but it is that immediacy prior to impact that does not make the swishing sound as formidable as the sound of the belt. The sound I am referencing, of course, is the sound of the belt sliding through belt loops on a pair of pants.


Doubling the belt over, then SNAPPING the bent sides together makes a sudden shocking noise that causes any spankee to jump. I have to admit that I have a habit of quickly snapping the leather together twice. It is a habit I learned from my father, though he always had the belt in his hand when I heard that sound. Usually, the next thing I heard was dad saying, "It's time for a taste of the lash!"

My favorite habit with the belt, however, is to feel the coolness of the leather as I double it over. Then, after several hard stinging lashes I run the belt through my off hand to feel just how quickly the leather has warmed. Obviously, it is not as warm as the bottom it has so recently caressed, but the reflective warmth in the leather confirms the effects of the spanking just as much as the miscreant's moans and cries.

The belt is also versatile. Doubled over and shortened up it can be used effectively in an OTK situation. Similarly, I have had the good fortune to wield a leather belt against a bared bottom which was secured on a St. Andrews Cross ... unfurled, the belt had quite some reach and the whizzing tip of the belt bit harshly into the bottom flesh much as the business end of a whip.

Versatile, feared, effective, and worn everyday without suspicion: what an instrument!


FULL DISCLOSURE FOOTNOTE: My wife took the time to read this article before being submitted and she was less than pleased. Her displeasure was rooted in some perceived slight against women that she took to mean that women cannot effectively utilize the belt when spanking. However, bent over the bed with my bare upraised bottom being thrashed by my wife, belt in hand, her rambling lecture seemed all too focused on phrases like, "Big hips?", "Fat ass?", "YOUR status as a spanker?!", "I'll show you a thing or two!"

Spankings in general, and the belt in this particular instance, are great learning tools. What I learned is to never let my wife proof read again!

Great article Dan2.

After all, who but a chef goes to work with a wooden spoon in his back pocket?

Maybe these chefs: Emeril Lagasse, Robert Irvine, Bobby Flay?

Very nicely done. I enjoyed it very much.

Interesting and great fun! Last year I stepped on a frozen comb and sprained my ankle, and I am now considering carrying a hairbrush in my back pocket....

There is nothing more fearsome than that whooshing sound of Daddy's belt as he prepares to use it on his daughter's bottom. It is indeed a full attention gathering moment.

Great article, a pity your sweet lovely wife took exception to your manly assertion that the fairer sex should be limited to wielding hairbrushes. Evidently, she enlightened and expanded your experience base in this arena. I say to her,"Go Girl- educating one's spouse is a worthy aspiration."
Lovely article.

Good article about the belt and how someone can have one for another reason and then to use as punishment.

Enjoyable article. I have to say that the sight and sound of the belt being drawn through the loops causes, not only fear, but a certain thrill of excitement - at least to this spankee!

I made a special belt by cutting down a weight lifting belt which has leather that is hard and twice as thick as a normal belt but does not look out of place when you are wearing it. It is very effective.

The other thing that I should mention is that a doubled up belt is not as painful. Some of the kenetic energy is lost when the second layer strikes the first layer. If you need to shorten the belt you should wrap it around your hand and leave a single layer dangling.

The comment about women's belts should be qualified: women's uniform belts are entirely suitable.

A really informative and amusing article about this popular and - as you say - readily available (sometimes too readily available) instrument. Well done and thank you.

Many of my classmates got the belt at home. I can remember prying the details of their ordeals out of them the day after.

Thanks for a great article.

Loved the article about my favorite instrument of punishment. I particularly love having a women take my own belt off and punish me until I am yelling and sobbing. I am sorry, I do love when in I hear the crack on my bare backsie.

Ah, what a lovely description of a leather belt. I also enjoyed hearing about your wife's reaction. She seems like an awesome lady.

It's the swish that does me in too. Another point of the belt is the lifted eyebrow with a tap on my husband's belt and I know what is gong to happen when we get home!

Seeing someone reach for the belt buckle, having it unfastened and pulled through the belt loops. Seeing it doubled over and raised knowing that feared leather will soon be connecting with a bared bottom causes great anxiety. That can be from a man it a woman too. Having a good scolding while it's happening gets those goosebumps going.

Great article and a good reminder on all the implements.

Very interesting article. The anticipation when the belt is removed from the trousers is all too real but a custom made strap can be just as effective.

Also the best implement, along with plimsolls, when travelling through airport security. Thanks for a thoughtful article. Your pleasure in the belt comes through clearly and it is good that you can share everything with your wife.
