The Satisfaction of Self-Spanking
by Katie B

Who does it?
Why do you suppose so many people feel the need or urge to self-spank? I doubt very seriously if many people would confess that they utilize this method when satisfying their own needs but many do.

Why do we do it?
Corporal punishment was used on many of us as children, usually by an angry parent or teacher correcting our naughty behavior. Most of the spankings were unwelcome at the time or even feared. At some point however, those very experiences began peaking our interest and providing us with great pleasure. And although we most likely do not seek to relive our childhood spankings, we do go to great lengths to find the perfect spanking. But finding the perfect spanker to perform this erotic or disciplinary act can at times be rather tough.

Sometimes there is just no one else around to do it. Should we deprive ourselves of a nice throbbing red bottom just because we happen to momentarily be without a partner? Hell no! I say get those implements out and start beating away at your ass until you can't sit for a month!

Other reasons we might take on the task of disciplining ourselves might be that our partner isn't very good at spanking. I mean they try... but well... for one reason or another it's simply just not satisfying. And of course you don't want to divorce your honey just because they are inept at reddening your ass. I doubt the courts would find that a very probable reason for divorcing!

And we certainly can't overlook the plain simple reason of spanking our own bottoms because it's enjoyable and we have total control over what happens. You are the writer and the reader all rolled up into one.

So... with all that said, no more procrastinating! It's fun and easy and truthfully, isn't it long overdue? Put a little sting in those cheeks and put some swelling in those buns. Let's look a little further into this exciting activity of self-spanking by looking at different ways you might start preparing yourself before adding a little color to your buttocks.

How do I prepare?
I suppose it goes without saying that you should try to find a place where you will be not be interrupted. There is nothing worse then worrying about who might walk in on your little intimate moment unless of course, you have some sort of fetish about that. I'm not sure if it's the teacher in me or not but I would also suggest you have everything ready for your session such as clothing, implements, etc. You don't want to stop in the middle of your butt blistering to go find something.

Preparing your mind for the spanking is just as important as the physical readiness. Deciding why you are about to be corrected and figuring out your punishment can really set the mood. Many stories in the library devote half their tale to punishments leading up to the actual spanking such as making the culprit write sentences about their crime, wear suggestive clothing, stand in corners or perform different chores. There is nothing listed that one cannot inflict upon themselves. The key is to be strict and submit yourself completely to the task at hand.

Positioning is also something you should think about when self-spanking. Just about any position can work, although if you are using your hand you'll find your arms are not going to be long enough to be very satisfactory if you are kneeling or bending over something. However when you arch your back, you'll find your hand can deliver a most delightful sting. Most other implements can be used no matter how you decide to position yourself.

What implements should I use?
ANYTHING! There are many fabulous implements to choose from as you probably already know but I find small wooden implements - such as hairbrushes, paddles and bath brushes - work really well for self-spanking. They are easy to swing and can create quite a sting across a nice plump little bottom.

Wooden spoons and spatulas as well as many other kitchen and bathroom items are also delightful when it comes to chastising yourself. In fact there aren't too many implements I don't like. No doubt you have your own favorites that will also work tremendously well.

Dressing for your self spanking?
Sometimes dressing for your spanking can be just as exciting as the punishment itself. Some like to dress in school uniform giving them the feeling of being that naughty little boy or girl. They are forced to roll their briefs or panties down to just below their bottom and made to stand and wait for their punishment. Others like special types of shirts that might read things like, "Naughty Girl," or "Bad Boy". Of course underwear displaying the same kind of messages are also fun to wear.

And still some, myself included, like the feeling of nakedness with the minimal amount of clothing draping their body. Panties being forced all the way off but the bra is half-mast or showing just enough of the breast to be rather embarrassing.

How you would dress with a partner is much the same way you would dress for a self-spanking. Just have fun with it.

Taking things a step further... a little here, a little there
I personally haven't tried this but I've heard that you can rather spice things up by rubbing a little capsaicin cream into your bottom half way through the self-spanking. Apparently it has the component of chili peppers in it and will really produce a stinging sensation wherever you apply it. The heat builds up as you continue smacking away. Coating your butt with mineral oil should do about the same thing. You can spank longer and harder before your bottom starts getting really agitated.

If you have read any of my stories you probably know I include spankings across the crack a lot! That's because this is a very sensitive part of your bottom, so applying a series of swats across or indeed between those willful little cheeks brings a sore end for the naughtiest of offender. One is most likely to be feeling very sorry for themselves when the spanking is done.

I have exfoliated my bottom with a bath brush before a spanking before and I am here to tell you, it is quite exciting to have a spanking right afterwards. It creates quite a tingling feeling!

You might even add an additional punishment to the spanking you are receiving by making yourself spend the rest of the day with your bare bottom exposed, being sent to bed early, performing household duties in the buff, being restricted from the TV, computer or telephone, writing lines, or being forbidden to speak. All of which we have read in many a spanking story and are all exciting additions.

So go ahead... take the plunge and treat yourself... or rather punish yourself. It's fun. It can be a most satisfying way of spending some time and it will leave your buns red, swollen and throbbing for days. Something that all we spankos love!

Katie,

Great article on a subject that isn't really discussed at great length. This was fascinating indeed. I've heard of self-spanking over the phone as well, which would mean it's on speaker. I have to agree, that's another reason you need to be somewhere peaceful and secluded.

Well done KB

Great article about self-spanking. I have found it a bit difficult technically to do self crack spanking. Appreciate your thoughts.

Ok, Katie, fess up, which pic is of you? the blonde or the brunette?
Great article, I can tell you have not only been doing some reading, but you clearly have extensive prior knowlege. I have also read that coating your bottom with glycerine before a spanking sensitizes your pain receptors, making the entire experience more intense,- painfully so.

I love the unconcerned and lighthearted way you are writing about this taboo issue.It sounds all so normal in your article.

Thanks for this light-hearted article.

Sadly this subject is a bit taboo, even in the ranks of spankos. I suppose the fact that one doesn't have someone else willing to do the spanking is seen as some sort of failure.

My own experience is that I need a longer and more severe implement for self application than a ( granted hypothetical ) spanker would need because there isn't the same freedom of movement.

I do think there are a couple of difficulties with the whole thing though, and one is that you are the author and reader as you put it. It's so easy to hold off when your bottom thinks you've had enough.

Anyway, thanks. This article has helped me view this activity as being a little less shameful.

I tried self-spanking when I was much younger but it only made me want to be spanked by someone else even stronger then before.

I think all spankees try this type of situation, either when first finding out they have a kink in regards to spankings or when they are older and cannot find a partner whom they can share the kink with. For myself, self-spanking was far from satisfying, hardly any fun and rather frustrating to say the least.

I have never tried it with a long-distance partner directing the effort but for some reason such does not have an appeal to me. Self-spanking may be just the thing for some and if it is, then I say great for them, continue on and have fun.

Thanks for making me smile and the memories of the past with this article. it is fun to look back and laugh at one self. I never considered self-spanking shameful, it was just a small part of my life where I tried it. If I had not tried it I suppose I would always wonder, but with self-spanking the good thing about it is that one does not have to wonder long before anyone can try it.

Well done Katie for airing this slightly sensitive subject. There are various difficulties associated with self-spanking including the physcal one that the arms aren't quite long enough. One technique which works quite well is to stand upright or lean slightly forwards, rather than bending over, and use a lightweight implement (eg thin paddle made of MDF) applied with a backhand stroke, rather than a forehand, which saves the arm having to reach across the body as in 2nd photo above. Works best with a bare bottom, obviously, but still requires a certain amount of willpower and determination .

That's what I've been told, anyway ....

Very interesting look at this subject. Sir Arnold tells me he will not be doing it!

I have never admitted it before but I tried to do this around the age of 9. I have not tried since, I always felt I was abnormal. The more I read on this site the more comfortable I feel in my own skin. Reading your fabulous article has just added to that. Thanks.

Thanks, Katie, for a great article - I first tried this when I was about 10, and have returned to it many a time. You don't get the buzz of not being in control, but for sheer physical oomph, it serves very well.

I certainly have some experience of this. Indeed I had always wondered from illustrations how a birch could possibly hurt until I made one for myself & found out! It's very hard to be sufficiently severe with oneself. Perhaps reading lives of the self-flagellating saints would help.
Capsaicin, glycerine, mineral oil, I'm off to the supermarket.

Fine article. I have tried to deal with this subject in verse, so I guess everyone who reads things here already knows I am one of those people who are into self-spanking, from time to time. I started about 20 years ago, often while looking at drawings of spanking scenes and imagining myself in them. The biggest problem is how to keep from stopping when you really "need" a bit more! But every month or so, when there is no other way to get spanked, this is a good way to deal with an obsession.

I have done this as well with a variety of implements. Addressing the comment of control, I created a spreadsheet program that simulated a dice game I'd heard about where the roll of several dice determined the implement, bare bttom or not, and of course the obvious number of strokes. Set yourself a challenge and failing at it means you have to roll the dice and give yourself whatever the dice say you've earned. In my case a recalculation of the spreadsheet determines the punishment earned. I also programmed in some bonuses ... like snake eyes automatically doubles the number of strokes. It can be lots of fun ... and quite painful having taken some of your control away!

I have spanked myself for some years now and feel that I am rather good at it. An implement has always been used. The best ones are those with medium length handles such as a spoon, paddle, hairbrush or best of all a bathbrush. I have two plastic headed ones and a wooden one. The plastic really do sting the best. A long handle gives the best control for speed and intensity as well as being able to easily cover the entire bottom and thighs. I have a couple of short straps, but they are not as easy to use.

Sometimes it's fun to start out over jeans, then go to underpants, briefs not boxers, and then end with a good hard finish on the bare bottom. At other times, I start out right on the bare bottom, with no warm up, and either alternate sides or do a certain number of spanks on one side and then the same on the other side. Very often I might base my session on one I have read about in our story section or on a video I have watched. A good self spanking can be very therapeutic and is a way to forget the cares of the day for a while in a fantasy scenario.

As I said, I have developed my technique and at times have raised a blister or two before stopping, especially when my bottom was wet. The most painful experience was when I sat bare-bottomed on a wooden chair for about 10 minutes in the winter when the temperature was 25F. After my bottom was quite chilled, I started working on it with the bathbrush. After a few spanks I had to stop. It really hurt. But, otherwise my little bottom can take and has taken quite a bit! Hope my thoughts are helpful to some of you.

Oh, one last thought concerning belts/straps. These are hard to use on yourself and I have tried. I think another person is needed to give someone a good strapping. That is one experience I have never really had. Oh, well...

I was only ever threatened with spankings as a boy. Neither my mother nor my oldest sister could bring themselves to actually warm my bottom, even in those instances when everyone knew I deserved it. With the onset of puberty at 13, I literally took matters into my own hands, either paddling or strapping my bare bum, typically as a prelude to masturbation.

My favourite routine was to stand between the mirrors in my parents' bedroom with my trousers and underpants down around my knees. The arrangement of mirrors gave me a perfect straight-on view of my decidedly spankable backside and upper thighs. Smacking my bum with my hand was totally ineffective, so I was frequently on the lookout for whatever implement delivered the sharpest sting. The sting from a good, sound spanking soon had me thoroughly hooked.

I've always been visually oriented, and I quickly fell in love with the sight of my spank-reddened bottom, framed by my shirttail and my pulled-down pants. And sometimes, for the sake of a change but also to look the part of a naughty girl, I'd dress in my younger sister's half-slip and panties. The visual element of a traditional domestic spanking was hugely important to me, so I played with it.

For want of a female lap, self-spanking sustained me through my teens and my twenties. And even through my subsequent marriage with a wife who did her best to accommodate my craving for punishment on my bum, the maximum sting was always self-administered.

With Spanking Ladies no longer available (Great Fun while it lasted, that's for sure!), I've got a very simple bum-warming habit, much like what I first started out with as a frustrated teen. I stand by my bed with my pants down, and I methodically paddle my bottom with a contour body brush (it looks like a kidney-shaped hairbrush). Basically, right hand/right cheek, left hand/left cheek, but I'll use the brush in the opposite hand to land delicious vertical smacks right next to my crack. Mmmm, love it! And again, for the sake of variety, I can do some serious walloping with a wooden paddled-shaped cutting board.

The one notable difference in recent years is my using a digital camera instead of mirrors to show me my naughty bottom. I'm hopelessly committed to getting the best possible images of my bare/spanked behind, and then saving and sharing them online. Hey, keeps me off the street. ;-)

What an interesting article!

I first tried self-spanking in my mid-teens - probably the best instrument I ever came across was a long-handled bath-brush of my parents'! I tried it off and on for many years, when I thought I was never likely to get the chance of a real-life spanking from anyone. I met all the frustrations we must all have faced - it was so difficult to be accurate, and it was so difficult to do it hard enough when the naughty bottom so much did not want the pain at the same time as so much needing it.

I have not done it much in the last few years, mainly because I am now getting regular spankings from a real-life spanking partner. The last time I did it, about three years ago, I got rather carried away - I got out a pair of old dancing shoes and whacked away while reading some of my favourite magazines! I was horrified to find afterwards that I had given myself some really quite nasty bruises! I showed them to my spanking-partner friend, who was very laid-back about it. She took me to a big chemists and showed me what I should get to bring them down! All in the day's work!

Thank you for a piece which showed that one is not alone, even in some of the most seemingly bizarre practices!

The biggest problem I find with self-spanking is the inability to make myself cry. No matter how hard I try to hit myself and I do it hard enough to really make it hurt, there is just some unknown reason why I can't get tears to come. I think it has to be connected to the lack of relationship with a spanker and the emotional aspect of being spanked by someone else including the lack of getting a good scolding which of itself might bring forth tears.

This is a topic we rarely read about, though many of us have tried it or still practice it for various reasons. I began when I was around 11 or 12 and included the addition of certain feminine items as a change of pace from time to time. Years later, my wife, (RIP), accommodated both desires and enjoyed it.
