How Did I Get Into Spanking?

I have been asked this question quite a few times now, by different people and on different platforms: how did I get into spanking?

The best way I can describe it is that spanking wasn’t really the beginning of my journey into the kinky world. It was much more the place where, eventually, I settled and felt comfortable.

My curiosity about BDSM began with a fascination for what people do behind closed doors, the ins and outs of human sexuality and all its bizarre nuances. Let’s just say I started exploring some of them rather too early to give you a respectable age here.

It wasn’t until my early forties that spanking was elevated to one of my main interests, thanks to my discovery of traditional discipline and the wonderful people who take it to another level. Its unique character brought together my passion for history, vintage fashion, storytelling and kink. I am no more passionate about spanking itself than I am about the role play, ritual, atmosphere, manners, authority and the entire aesthetic surrounding it.

Most of all, when I step into traditional discipline role play, I no longer feel like i am 'playing' a character — I’m so completely immersed in that world, that it feel just like another part of me. I love its connection with history and that wonderful sense of temporarily existing in another time, another life and under another set of rules. I don’t have to think about what my character should say or do next; once I’m there, it simply happens.

I shall conclude that there is so much more to me than spanking, but spanking is the part of me you see most, because it has found a rather cherished place in my life.
