Pro-Spankee: Juliette Tulliver
Wellred Weekly continues the series of interviews with spanking models and pro-spankees.


When did you first realise you were a spanko?
It was such a gradual process that I can't identify a moment. A couple of years ago I looked up spanking-related things online - for my generation, growing up with the internet, everything thinkable is accessible, so I always knew it was there if I wanted it - I fell in with people who do spanking. I know people who love bondage, and wax play, interrogation, and all sorts of things, but of the kinks I've come across I'm most drawn to spanking. I recognise that I'm choosing from a menu, in a sense; go to a fetish club, count the number of women in corsets and very small hats, and try to tell me that these are expressions of their innermost desires. I enjoy spanking, but I don't think of it as an identity.

If I have to choose a moment, it was probably walking the walls in a historic city, on a sunny day, with a strange man from the internet, who was suggesting that I pretend to be an evacuee while he spanked me. The moment I said, "Yes."

Explain to us what the lure and reward of being spanked is to you.
I have a new theory about this every day, which probably means I haven't got the right one yet. Today, I think I'm lured to spanking because, for a little bubble of time, I get to live in a place without responsibility. It can be escapism, and that's why it goes so well with gingham and knee-socks, I get the simplicity of the world as it was when I was a child. The most satisfying spankings, though, involve a belief in the responsibility of the spankee. I can be better, a headmaster/boss/uncle has faith that I can be good, if he didn't, it wouldn't be worth the bother of spanking me. So I get all this care and belief, just by being bad. I guess that's why I'm bad so often!

Also, it's just fun.

When did you start?
July, I think. It was the height of summer, and I regretted wearing my Japanese winter uniform for my first session.


How easy was it to break in to?
Very easy! I spent a weekend dressing up in my school uniforms and posing for pictures, which was, if I'm honest, an end in itself. Then I put a website together, without much expectation of anything coming of it. I only listed it in one place - Spankeefinder - and I spent the next fortnight feeling like I was buried in an avalanche of emails. They all asked questions I didn't have any answers to: what level of nudity am I comfortable with? Would I work from a dungeon? Do I mind being spanked with a cheeseboard? (Ok, I made that last one up, but I've been asked stranger things) I hadn't worked out anything, I hadn't even bought a work phone.

I don't know how it will go in the future, it's possible I haven't really 'broken in', but it's been a great few months.

Do you have a high pain threshold?
No. I'm a bit sensitive about it, actually.

The first spanking films I watched were by Lupus, and those were severe. When I started to play I was amazed by the amount of pain that could be inflicted on me without even leaving a mark. If the fairly tame strappings and canings I received pushed me to the limits of my tolerance, what then are the people who play hard going through?! I can't imagine.

I yelp, I wriggle, I can't help myself. Friends in the audience at one particular school caning scene still laugh, sometimes, as they remind me how far I jumped at the first stroke of the cane (I'm sure it gets higher every time). I am, not to put too fine a point on it, a wimp. Why be a pro-sub, you ask? Good question.

Have you given as well as received spankings?
I haven't found myself drawn to giving spankings. I have practised caning, in preparation for teaching people to cane me. It's motivating, when your bottom's on the line!

Do you get spanked in your private life as well as at work?
I do! I've been spanked in my private life for a couple of years, now, and there's no way I'd give that up. Pro-subbing has taken over some parts, like role playing, which I didn't get to do as often before, and allowed room for more quasi-real spankings in my private life.

Have you ever experienced a real punishment spanking?
I do, now and again, get spanked for cheekiness or another misdemeanours, which is usually an excuse for good, stern fun. Yes, I am the kind of girl who leans over the parapet because she wants to be yanked off and given a spanking.

'Proper' punishments are more complicated. A punishment which you provoke is very different from one you don't, like a speeding fine. I'm not sure how I feel about speeding fine punishments. My last one was for forgetting to bring my migraine medication to a spanking party (well, I hadn't organised getting the medication at all, actually, but I didn't like to bring that up). It was twelve hard strokes of the cane, which was horrid, but not half as horrid as a migraine, so, like most punishment spankings, I doubt its efficacy as a deterrent. I'm still experimenting, though.


Do you find there's a difference between being spanked by a man or a woman? And if so what?
Last year's spanking musical chairs at a women-only Christmas party aside, I've been spanked by very few women, so I suspect I don't have a valid sample. I haven't noticed any differences, except that women tend to be shorter than men, which sometimes makes OTK spanking more complicated for a tall girl like me.

If there is one implement you would never want to be spanked with again, what is it?
An Ikea shoe horn. Oh, the indignity!

What is your favourite spanking implement?
I like things made of leather: straps, tawse, belts. I'm hoping that my favourite spanking implement will be the MC Customs tawse that's in the post at the moment, but I have yet to find out.

What is your favourite position to be spanked in?
Over the knee. That kind of over the knee where my hair gets in my face, and as I wriggle I realise that I've got both legs off the floor, and am suspended in the air.

Do your vanilla family and friends know that you are a Pro-sub?
My friends do, and most of them think it's hilarious. Reactions have varied from, "You should get in touch with my uncle, he's an accountant," to, "I'm trying to be open minded, I'm really, really trying to be open minded."

My family doesn't know, but when I said I couldn't speak for long because I had to get back to my desk the other day, the family reaction was, "Oh, you have an office job?" (I do). It's not awfully difficult keeping the secret.

Do you initiate ideas for scenarios or do you just do as instructed by the customer?
I try to make sure we come up with a scenario together that we both find fun. Some people come with a developed idea, which is nice, because if they know what they want, they can give me a clear picture. If someone seems a bit unsure, I throw out a few ideas, like school role plays, or secretary scenes, that I know I'll like. I'm quite capable of getting out my typewriter and making enough mistakes in a letter to make someone want to spank me! I feel the best play happens when everyone brings something to it.

What are your hard limits?
Stockings with miniskirts. Nudity (mine or the client's!). Punishment on the hands. Hard but inept caning (start lightly, take the time to work up). Wandering hands.

Lists of limits can feel misleading, they're never exhaustive - "What, you don't like it? How was I meant to know? Tarantulas aren't on your limits list!" - and we all want play that does more than just avoid things we absolutely hate. I'd rather talk to someone about what we might enjoy; either of us will be quick to say, "I wouldn't like that," if we hit on something that doesn't sound fun.


What are the risks to your personal safety and how do you minimise them?
I'm alone with strangers, I'm inviting them to hurt me, and there aren't many jobs where you don't ask for your client's real name. So far I haven't met any axe-wielding psychopaths. I have some precautions against them, though, which I'm not going to go into for fear of them being axe-wielding psychopaths who do their research. Barring them, the biggest risk to my safety is probably hurting myself when returning the furniture to its original place after a session. Why can't spankos ever put things back where they found them?

Have you had any bad experiences with clients that you would like to share?
I think discretion is important, so I'll admit that this is a semi-fictionalised account. Wouldn't you hope it would be, if it were you?

I can only think of one bad session. At the time it was meant to end, the client, let us call him Nigel, declared there would be two more parts to the punishment, two more implements, two more positions. When they were finished, Nigel declared another, and then another, and then another. The strokes were getting harder, and more erratic. Eventually, he whacked the small of my back very hard with a cane, and I asked him to stop. He rushed out so quickly that I'm amazed be remembered his coat. I had a long train journey that evening, and I spent it sitting on a packet of frozen honey-glazed parsnips to mitigate the bruising!

Are there certain scenarios that are your personal favourites?
I've always loved school scenes, especially ones involving lessons and tests. Increasingly, though, I get excited about scenarios that are new to me. I bought some jodhpurs to be a lazy stable girl recently, and that was a lot of fun. My new favourites are ones I haven't thought of yet.

Is it lucrative being a Pro-sub?
Put it this way, I haven't given up my other jobs yet! There are moments when I look at the cash I made from one or two hours' work and am flabbergasted. If I could do it every day of the week, it would probably be very lucrative, but I'd never be able to sit down!

How long do you plan to continue as a Pro-sub?
I can't think of a reason why I'd stop. I suppose it might be difficult to find clients if I move to the Outer Hebrides, but that's unlikely. I will see how circumstances change over time, but I hope to carry on playing with some of the lovely people I've met for a very long time.
