I agree with this.

I'm not sure what EGCG had in mind, but I do know some people experience that same high from getting tattooed. But there is only so much skin . . . ;-)

Could you refrain from using the word "tits" on this board? Most of Us find that to be derogatory and this is a DOMME board. If you must be so graphic, "breasts" is a much more respectful term.

No

Pain is always a bit of a conflict to me. The pain from spanking (cane, strap, paddle etc) is inexorably tied to the feelings of helplessness that comes from very real bondage.It is a way for gthe Domme to demonstrate her control. I don't think I could/would enjoy just bending over to be spanked but tie me down securely and the pain becomes wildly erotic.....adding things like hoods, gags,posture collars and layers of bondage makes it even better...... Put in the context of the kind of session with a trusted partner where there is only a very limited safeword and it goes off the charts.

I don't think I'm a masochist as such but in the context I've described it adds tremendously to a session.

That sounds like a great experience. I had different kinds of experience with spanking.

First kind when I was kneeling on the bed and my Domme spanked from behind. It didn't excite me that much.

Second kind where I was tied up in front of a mirror and my Domme did some light spanking. It was a very sensual experience.

I wouldn’t describe myself as a spanko because I have many other interests, but corporal was one of the first activities I tried and remains a favorite. Taking the pain for my Mistress and relaxing into it is still a unique and cathartic experience. There is definitely a psychological aspect (yes I do enjoy the D/s involved) but there is also the endorphin high. After a long break I tried corporal again and the endorphins felt like tokes off a joint when they kicked in. So you get the “ouch” followed by the “ahhhhh!!”
