"As rare as rocking-horse excreta!"

August 06 2013

G'day, folks ;The comment is mine, made many years ago in Perth, Western Australia, when I was searching for discipline-quality rattan. There was little to none to be found. Since corporal punishment was banned in most schools the demand for such rattan has dwindled. Which was bad news for the baby-boomers (born between 1946 and 1964) and those who arrived in this world too recently to be categorised as a 'boomer'. For these people, many with a significant social profile to protect, the erotic terror of their schooldays never deserted them.For them, caning is the greatest drug-free recreation yet invented. Facing a caning their worries and problems fade almost out of consciousness. But their minds know only a delicious torment: Where? When? How many strokes? And the marks, the tell-tale signature of what I've been up to! Even if concealment is no problem you have to wonder if your beach-going will be impaired. As every administrator knows it takes only a single misplaced stroke to end a relationship.Actually, to be pedantic, a person does not 'face' a caning. They face away from it, human anatomy being what it is.If you're a woman without a compliant partner you may then discover the sad reality of gender discrimination, at least in Perth. A woman once said to me "It's easy for a man who wants his bottom smacked. All he needs is money and the Personals pages of any large newspaper." A quick scan of a daily confirmed the truth of her lament. A man could take his pick of several mistresses, but not a single advertisement by a man offering similar 'corporal' services for women. Of course, I can think of at least two reasons for the absence of such promotion. But it is still discrimination.Since the days in 1996 when I remarked as to the scarcity of discipline-quality rattan the shortage has been eased somewhat by importing what is really furniture-grade material and then trying to find amongst it those precious few sweet lengths that will swish with a sound so loved by many devotees. A wide range of synthetics (plastics) are now available but none can sing like rattan.But then again the implement is only one part of the story. As a woman once said: "For me, the perfect caning is Mills and Boon with just a dash of S&M."

Hallo, Mado ;Perth is deceptively conservative. Behind the curtained windows of stately - and not-so-stately - homes set well back from the street in tree-lined suburbs a passing generation recreate the erotic torment of a time they left behind - no pun intended - but could never erase from their minds.These are the 'baby-boomers' - and an increasing number too young to be categorised as a boomer. And being a boomer means they have accumulated a very significant profile in the public and the private realms. So significant that that dare not even attend a munch.If the conservatism of Perth provides the radar below which they can operate then their thankfulness attracts no more attention than the silence of the closed curtains.But things are changing, perhaps ominously. It was once said that the only people to find Perth were lost - geographically confused, to be polite. Nowadays big passenger planes land at Perth, although I suspect that stopovers are occasioned not so much by Perth's appeal but by the last opportunity to obtain aviation fuel at Australian prices before setting out across the ocean.Ominously? Sadly, yes. Why, only the other day I saw a bumper sticker exhorting us to "Report all sightings of Taliban submarines!"

Hallo, Freya77 ;The English language is over-loaded with nouns. Not enough verbs. People almost always talk of canes, rather than caning. We need to think in terms of 'Romancing the Rattan'. Without the romance it is just abuse.But there are huge gender differences. For most males a caning is simply punishment. I never did have a male ask me for a 'sensuous caning'. But for the female it's been my experience that we're dealing with an entirely different realm. Yes, there is still the punishment element, although I suspect that even that element has more to do with caning, Internet-style, being constructed as eye-candy for the male.But caning is a highly-demanding martial art. It is a subtle mixture of constructional skill, physical prowess, and a love of the dramatic arts. My often-given advice to hopeful administrators is first do a course at NIDA, the National Institute of Dramatic Art, before they ever think of taking hold of a cane. Because the litmus test of a wonderful caning is whether an observer would find it totally enthralling.

Quoting 'Bottom_Liner' Because the litmus test of a wonderful caning is whether an observer would find it totally enthralling. Really????I defer to your experience....but I would have thought the litmus test of a good caning is if the "canee" enjoyed the experience.DG

G'day, Mischeviouslad ;I've not heard a canee describe the experience as 'enjoyable'. 'Mind-blowing!', 'Wow!', but not 'enjoyable'. But what they seemed to find enormously pleasurable was praise from their partner - the administrator - and particularly, if the caning was 'public', the admiration of the audience. Let me paraphrase something which was said to us in private after a recent 'performance'. You'll pardon the lack of attribution of the quote. I do not have permission to identify the commenter:"I've watched a lot of canings but after a few strokes I've always felt uneasy. Sort of like, she's taking it because she's been told she has to, like she's not really in control, if you get what I mean. But you two were something else - haha, even managed a bit of comedy in it. She asked, you gave. Beautiful to watch."Of course, words alone cannot recreate an experience, but I think what the commenter was trying to convey was his total ease with what he had witnessed. Organisational theorists would say we were a partnership rather than a D/s hierarchy.If you're wondering what the commenter found to be comical it was probably the well-rehearsed exchange:"Next stroke please! Suh!""Next stroke incoming! Ma'am!"That really did dissolve the tension ;Eric aka Bottom_Liner
