A Little Adventure (Where we see two naughty girls get spanked by a big strong man)
Click on any of the pictures for the link to Dreams Of Spanking
A few weeks ago (which feels like a million years ago, it was just before I moved house and all that move entailed) I was contacted by the beautiful and really quite exciting Pandora Blake to see if I would review Dreams of Spanking.
I was so excited. I felt terribly important to be asked and I got sent a free membership for a whole month. That felt like being someone, like getting a goodie bag or someone knowing your name before you say it.
And then I packed my house. Then I unpacked. Then I got sad. Then I went to London. Then I got sad again. I sat and hugged my dogs. And then it was the end of the month and I realised I am a bit rubbish. And guilty.
I had not done one thing.
Except …
I had taken a peek, a little one.
What had happened was this, one day when I got home from work Dexter called me into his study (my house and it feels like his study- how did that happen?) and made me sit on his lap. I must admit I quite liked that. And then he said, “Let’s look at Dreams of Spanking” because he knew all about the request and he was being helpful. I am sure he did not just want to look at films of spanked girls for his own edification.
I calmly and sensibly agreed and we did and then we discussed the socio-political implications of what we had seen.
*whistles and inspects the ceiling*
That is not what happened.
I squealed and tried to run away. Do you know why? You do if you are a girl like me.
This is why.
Words take time to get into your head and you know when you start to read them if they are the right sort or words, the sort that make you squirm a little and check no one is watching and then settle in to read with eyes as wide as can be.
If you find the wrong sort of words, the ones that can make you feel dirty and nasty for being the girl that you are, then you can stop reading and make them leave you alone before they leave a mark in your mind.
I work very hard to keep myself in places that are good for me, that encourage me to feel comfortable with who and what I am.
Pictures slip right in there; they get in past your brain and won’t go away even if they were only in front of you for a minute. And so many pictures of spanking and submission are all wrong.
They have horrid shoes and the girl looks either too young or too professional, the man looks unkind or unkempt, or the spanking looks too weak or too violent.
Girls like me don’t want to see the wrong pictures in case we feel it is us that are wrong.
I know I am supposed to be free enough to adopt the word ‘porn’ but I have not and I won’t. I write naughty stuff for naughty girls. I write words to tease men, to make us ponder, to be proud. I don’t write porn. And I don’t want to look at it.
I was scared. I did not want my brain to be burned.
But Dexter is a mean man and he pressed play on a video and made me watch. I sat still, my feet curled around his calves and I held his hand over my eyes. But I peeked.
He picked a film called, “Through The Bedroom Door.” With Amelia Jane Rutherford (her name always sounds like she is being told off!), Pandora Blake and Thomas Cameron.
I would like to tell you all about it but I get very shy- so this is what I will tell you.
Firstly, I will tell you that I saw it weeks ago and I can still remember the girls’ faces, the tone of their voices and how they formed their bodies to express their emotions. They looked on the outside like I feel on the inside when everything is perfectly spanky.
I can tell you that they use the same tone of voice I have heard from myself when I am being punished and I know I can’t get away with it but I think I should. They have the voices I imagine my girlfriends online using when they tease and brat.
I can tell you that Thomas was strict but not too strict so that I think I could just about have taken what the girls went through but I would have sulked because it looked horrid sore so I might have got a bit more.
I can tell you that it is little evocation of how it feels sometimes. I can tell you that I am grateful because it made me want to kiss Dexter and it made me tell him he is lucky to have a girl like me because girls like me are good and fun, just like in the film.
I can tell you that I want to see it again. But I am shy
That is just one film.
So, I let my free membership run out. I guess I am rubbish at perks. Tonight I joined again with my own money and took my first steps into something that is not at all porn, it is pictures and films of girls on adventures that we may share if we wish. These are the kind of stories I would tell, the adventures I aspire to, these are the secrets I would whisper if you were here with me now.
I am still scared and I wish Dexter were here so I could sit on his lap and make him choose where to go next.
I am smiling a lot, gently biting my lip, maybe I am less scared now. I want to look at other films, maybe all kinds of films.
If I can’t take Dexter with me you shall have to come. It will be a little adventure but don’t tell anyone- I think we will find very naughty things. It will be fun.
PS- I am also on Spanking UK today! Click here to read what I wrote. I feel very much part of this world today. I am liking it.

What Your Body is For
If I could give you anything at all it would be one of my memories. This summer I swam for the first time in a lake.
I was scared at first. The water was clear at the edge but as it got deeper it became black and it was hard not to think about what was beneath me.
I learned not to think about what scared me. I learned to swim and let the fear slip from my fingers.
You might be able to make out a small island in the centre of the picture, well at first I swam around that. And then I swam past that. And then I swam so far that I went off into the distance, around corners and out of sight.
It felt almost overwhelming at times, the silence, the distance and the space conspired against me if I thought about them. I swam alone into the lake, at times I would swim closer to the edge, a deep, dense forest in which I would hear beasts snuffling, just meters away
Each day I swam further from where I started. I started to explore, I went around corners, I went to places that could not be seen from the shore. I was totally alone, the sun on my back and the water beneath me, all around me.
And as got further and further out, as I found myself in new territory, as I swam totally alone, with the sun on my back and fear tickling my brain, I laughed. I wish I could give you the feeling. I swam on my front and turned on my back and I laughed aloud. It was so beautiful, I felt a thrill of fear from being so alone and it made me laugh from sheer joy.
The water felt smooth as silk, the view is half water, gun metal grey and sometimes blue and the reminder dark green trees and the huge, wild sky. And in the middle of it all, totally alone, far from anyone, a lifetime away from being saved were I to get into trouble, was me.
My body is a long way from perfect. I often turn in the mirror, pulling myself this way and that, trying to find a way to make it look like I would like it too. But then I can remember how it felt to swim in that wild, huge, silent lake.
I swim, I am free, my body is perfect- it performs as it ought, it brings me such tremendous joy that I can hardly contain it.
It is like when a man makes love to me, it is like when I am held so close I am not sure I can breathe, it is like when I am tumbling over hs knee, clasped firm and kicking, and it is like that when I stand on tip toes for a kiss.
My body is perfect because it leads me to joy.
I hope you feel that way about you, and about your body. I wish you whatever makes you laugh for the sheer pleasure of it.

Do you like the pictures? Poll post
Poll number three- Hi, Poppy, like the pictures!
I am so glad some people like the pictures. I have not an artistic bone in my body and can’t make anything look pretty to save my life. I think throughout my life anything visual has made me feel nervous and insecure.
But then I started this blit and looked at other people’s sites and I realised how much pictures matter. A picture means so much and tells us so much about how the writer feels and how the writer sees the people he or she writes about.
I am a woman who is discovering her sexuality and ability to love. I do not think these things are sordid and I do not think that the pictures I use should be sordid. There are so many pictures out there that make these feelings more of a struggle and make me feel guilty, unclean or as though I do not belong. I am not including any of these types of pictures in this post. I suspect you know what these pictures look like and if you do not I am not about to sully your eyes with them.
I am talking about the pictures of girls who look as though they “work for it” if you know what I mean.
There are some wonderful spanking models. You know Rosaleen Young is a hero of mine and of course the amazing Erica is stunning and aspirational – the kind of woman who has the qualities any of us would be proud of.
These women hold up a mirror to us in a way that lets us relax and yield a little, they encourage us to come a little closer, and find out more about who we really are.
But the girls who I do not like to show so much are the one dimensional, clear heel wearing, intimate details showing, slightly angry ones whose one “sexy” expression is mouth slightly parted, as though they had forgotten their lines. These are models who show no feeling at all at having their legs akimbo and their everything on show. These pictures just make me feel sad, and are some bastardization of sexuality because they are showing the activtities that I am interested in. Those pictures make me feel bad about myself. I want all those girls to read a book and take a qualification of some kind and then come back to modelling if they want to.
I want the pictures I use to say something and, wherever possible, I want the pictures to help women to feel better about themselves. I want pictures to help women to reflect and I want pictures that credit men with enough intelligence to see beauty and desire without graphic sexual detail.
I like pictures that I would love to slip into (even if they are a bit scary like this one.)
I love pictures that are of people I would love to meet or know. Look at this interplay between Bogart and Bacall and tell me that does not make you ask fascinating questions.
I love pictures that show beauty, sometimes with a playful touch
and sometimes in a way that makes you wonder how she feels because you think you may have felt the same way
In the same way I like to show men who are handsome and assertive. (This is Keith Jones and it is not a picture that shows him at his best but it hard to find lots of pictures of him. I have no idea why that is.)
But I am not keen to show men who are huge blocks of muscle. I am not saying these men are not attractive or masculine but I don’t like that exaggerated shorthand for masculine anymore than I like the representation of their female counterparts.
I have to use another Bogart picture, because he makes me sit very quietly, far more so than some model type.
Thank you for liking the pictures. I know only three people clicked that box but there have been oodles of comments over time where people have said they like pictures on these posts. Thank you for teaching me that I have a place in the visual world.
And finally, do check out the work of Amandell Visell, a wonderful series of posters for girls and, in case anyone wonders, I do not think the posters are at odds with this lifestyle at all. (Yes, I am chomping at the bit to write a post on this- I just did- it is on the site Dev and I share right now.)

The Very, Very Beautiful Marilyn Monroe
I am new to a lot of this. I am new to TTWD, I am new to considering Hollywood greats. I am new to any kind of considering of Marilyn Monroe.
Of course, I have heard of Marilyn Monroe and seen her in couple of films. I knew she was pretty and blonde, much desired and loved not enough.
My strongest memory is of her being sad, being chased by photographers as she left hospital.
It was a tragic scene. She was wrapped up in a coat and had no bodygaurds, no one to protect her and she got cornered like a fox. Poor girl, I remember thinking, poor girl.
She needed someone, she needed a strong someone, she deserved that. I don’t want to print this picture here. It is too heart breaking.
But more than that, I think she was one of us. Look at her down here, look how she sits. She wants to adore him, this adored woman. She wants to love utterly and be subsumed by it.
On Dev’s site, Phil Kemp wrote,
John Huston’s The Misfits (1961) was, sadly, the last movie made by both MM and her co-star, Clark Gable. But there’s a lighter side to the film, not least in Marilyn’s apparent Electra-complex crush on Gable.
After the shoot was over she told her psychiatrist Dr Ralph Greenson, “I have a dream for you. I dreamt I was sitting on Clark Gable’s lap with his arms around me. He said, ‘They want me to do a Gone with the Wind sequel. Maybe I will if you’ll be my Scarlett.’”
“I woke up crying. He was so nice to me and I didn’t deserve it. When I came back from a day off set, he patted my ass and told me if I didn’t behave myself he’d give me a good spanking. I looked him in the eye and said, ‘Don’t tempt me.’ He burst out laughing so hard he was tearing.”
“I wanted him to be my father. I wouldn’t care if he spanked me as long as he made up for it by hugging me and telling me I was Daddy’s little girl and he loved me. Of course, that’s fantasy.”
Or was it? Alas, we’ll never know.”
Isn’t that perfect? Isn’t it breakingly honest? Maybe not for you but for me.
I think, as I am growing into this thing we do, I am starting to understand what makes a girl like me. Very often the girls like I am (and maybe you are) are not to be found in spanking pictures. They may be models who do or do not like to get spanked. But they are girls who are not shy, not small inside, not with this core of something soft and dark, a velvet core.
I am not saying I am like Marilyn Monroe, sheesh in my dreams. I am saying maybe that part of her skill was showing that part of herself that other women share.
She showed that part that most of us fight to keep secret. Something cute, girlish, quaint, beautiful, delicate, and more, more besides.
She seemed (and I know that I know nothing about the Hollyood manipulation of image) to be a girl that exemplifies what it is to be a girl just like me. Maybe, like some optical illusion (watch the eyes follow you around the room) she seems to be a girl just like all the other girls.
I can see why men love her. I think I could love her. I like the type of woman I imagine her to be.
Here is a cute picture of that very famous shot before her knickers were approved.
I have an extra Marilyn postett which I am desperate to put up – I will do it on Saturday thereby breaking my own two day rule. But I can’t not break rules. That would be breaking a brat rule.

Romance

I am the daughter of a woman who does not believe in romance.
I have been brought up to not believe in romance and to spit out little tacks of bile when somoene mentions the word.
If romance were to exist it would not be for a girl like me. I have always known this to be true.
Except now, now things seem to be changing. I don’t really know what romance is. I really don’t.
I don’t think it is roses or silk bedsheets. I am certain it is not tired old lines or over booked restaurants on Valentine’s Day.
But I don’t think it is wrong either. I do not think it is something to hate or to be angry with.
But somehow I feel everything is more beautiful than it was before. I feel meaning in films and hope in starlight.

I don’t understand how meeting the man who spanks me and how being told off and packed off to bed and how not being able to swear and how not being able to lie about things teaches me anything about romance.
(I know that was a terrible sentence but I feel such a sense of confusion about this issue that I want to keep that fragmented messy collection of words just as it is.)
Do other women feel just as confused about romance?
How can I feel as confused as a child and at the same time feel the first blossom of romance I have ever known?
I am utterly bewildered.
I am fantastically happy.
I hope that you are happy too.
