Tie Her Up? Or Not?
Abel at The Spanking Writers agonizes over the pros and cons of tying a girl down before her punishment:
I’ve always been in two minds about tying girls down for more serious punishments – birchings, harsher canings, prison strappings.
On the one hand, forcing the young lady to remain in position no matter harsh the stroke has something of an appeal: it’s almost as though the ropes or belts holding her down give her an unfair advantage in withstanding the ordeal.
Yet it could be argued that the ties have an effect entirely the opposite to the one intended. If she’s left unbound, then rather than focussing entirely on the pain of the strokes themselves, her mind is distracted by the effort to stay in position.
Needless to say, Bondage Blog is generally in the pro-tying camp…
