I was heart broken when it stop publication as well. I don't even remember how Angie got me to start writing for it.. To this day I miss Angie and Barred Affair verry much..

Thank you so much for this and for your wonderful Institutionalised story. We appear to have lived the same life in the same era and share many similar preferences!

Huge thanks, SC! Your generous comments are a joy to read!

Thank you, Alef, for this informative and entertaining tour de horizon of Norwegian spanking culture and history. It struck me that if anyone was to attempt such a thing for the UK, it would be book length, at least!

I’ll have to see if I can ... find any of those film clips online….

Nice article with good information and helpful pointers. I appreciate this because it will be useful for my own efforts to write spanking poems. Thanks.

An interesting article that has within it a ring of truth.
I do not, however, accept the generalisation and still bitterly regret the abolition of corporal punishment in British schools and the continued pressure in society to demonise those in LOVING ... & CARING homes who spank with the genuine good of the young lady concerned as the sole motivation.

I enjoyed this article a lot - I find spanking machines quite interesting as a concept, so seeing the real history of them laid out was great. Thank you for writing and sharing this data, I appreciate it.

"Bared Affairs,' is dearly missed by me. I remember, so many laughs as I read the 'Spanko' Onion-like satire site.
