Spanking & Positions

Positioning is very important and can be quite rewarding in the spanking scene both to the spanker and the spankee.

The Spankers View

For the Spanker, positioning is important in terms of comfort, good ass presentation, a position of control, strength, movement, and safety. 

Ass Presentation.  For the spanker this visual is very satisfying. A good spanker appreciates a good ass and how it is presented.

Contol. The spanker wants his spankee in such a way that proper control can be used to render his bad girl helpless.

Strength, Movement and Safety. Consideration should be made for the space that the scene is carriend out in. Is there enough room to safely exercise the movement of arms and legs and have to freedom of movement to spank with a strong authority?

The Spankees View

The spankee needs to be comfortable for the duration so that other issues to not distract from the pain and pleasure.

Just having to be put into a position can be quite a head trip for the spankee. To surrender to a postion of vulnerability and ultimately punishment.

There is a humiliation factor in spanking. Spanking is something associated with a child. For a grown adult woman to assume such a position can be quite humilating and pleasurable at the same time.

The proper position is all important so that the right parts of the body are exposed to the ultimate in desired sensations.

Positioning also plays into the fear associated with waiting for what is to come. Anticipation of the infliction of a child like punishment, can make the spankee quite wet just in being positioned.

There is something in positioning that appeals to the submissive aspect, allowing the dominant's energy to posess her.

Visually she knows that the right ass presentation can be quite satisfying to her spanker and will lead him to do the best that he can for the scene.

Over the knee

This is the classic position of the Dominant seated in a chair with the submissive draped over his lap.  A variation is to lay over the left leg only and use the right leg to hold her in position.

This can also be done on a couch, with the sub laying across his lap which is quite comfortable. The same variation can be had with her laid over the left leg only and the right leg over her thighs holding her down.

This can also be done while sitting on the edge of the bed.

Standing Bent

In this position and it's many variations, the spankee standing bends at the waist and grabs her ankles, or if flexiblilty is an issue, her knees.

Another position is to bend at the waste and lean against a wall with hands or forearms.

Kneeling

Here the spankee kneels on the floor or some other aparatus.  

One can kneel on the floor bent resting hands or forearms on the floor.

One can also kneel on an ottoman or some sort of box or what is called a spanking horse in order to get the ass up higher so the spanker does not have to bend over.

Kneeling on the floor can also be fun using a spreader bar.

Using a chair or couch

One can be positioned over the back of a chair or couch.

Standing bent at waste with hands or forearms in the seat of the chair or couch.

One can kneel in the the seat of the chair or couch and lean over the back of the chair or couch.

One can lay over the end of a couch with knees on couch and hands on floor.

Lying down on bed or floor

One can be laid on a bed face down with pillow under buttocks. Wrist and ankle straps can be a fun extra.

The sub can be laid on her back and her legs pulled straight up and back over her head to expose the buttocks. This has been referred to as the "diapers" position.  The genitals are more exposed with this position and can be more humiliating.

Just have the spankee kneel on the bed. or floor or on a large ottoman.

One can be laid over the side of the bed, depending on the height of the bed, either kneeling or standing with feet on floor

Using a stool or horse

The spankee can be bent over a small bar stool. Her legs and wrists can be shackled or tied to the bottom of the stool. A nice pillow over the top of the stool witll make the experience very nice.

A horse can also be used on which the spankee kneels on all fours over lenghtwise or over the side.

Here are a couple of pics of a spanking horse that
I made myself with help from my friend trinite.

Using a St Andrews Cross, a Pole, or over head anchor point.

The sub can be secured to a St Andrews cross which looks like a large X. When using a Pole or a single anchor point, a spreader bar attached at the ankles can be nice.  A large column can be used to attach wrists and ankles around.
