Five Reasons To Try Spanking

Erotic spanking can take you on a journey of sensations from warm and gentle, to thrilling spikes of pleasure and orgasmic release. It can seem a little daunting at first, but with the right technique and practice, it can create the sexual intensity that you and your partner crave. Not convinced? Here are 5 reasons why you should give it a go;

1. A wonderful, natural high

Spanking increases the blood flow to the nearby genitals and causes a spike in adrenaline. They interact with the opiate receptor, having an effect similar to morphine or codeine. This results in a euphoric natural high, and in some cases it can even lead to an altered state of consciousness. There is nothing quite like it!

2. Talking of increased blood flow…

The increase is blood flow to the genitals makes it all the more susceptible to every gentle touch, kiss, and lick. Why not combine spanking with some intense sensation play? Or introduce torturous tools through cock and ball torture (CBT) or electro play? Make the most of that heightened sensitivity!

3. Power is sexy

We all enjoy the driver’s seat from time to time, but it’s always incredible hot to see our partners’ taking command in the bedroom. We are more than happy to be on the receiving end of their domination!

4. Let’s spice things up…

No matter how kinky you are, the best of us can fall into a stagnant routine. There are many, many ways that we are wired for pleasure. We all have our kinks, so explore them to the full! Whether you add some sensual spanking or full-on flogging, the combination of pain and plesure is sure to bring you over the edge.

5. Be prepared for an intense emotional connection

Sharing new experiences with your partner will naturally bring you closer together. Spanking involves a level of trust that you never though possible, as boundaries are pushed but never overstepped, and you’ll both connect on an entirely new emotional level.  One study even found that couples who partake in BDSM had a hormonal reaction that lead to the feeling of increased levels of intimacy after play.

Which spanking toy should you choose?

When choosing your toy, you should be aware of the strength and intensity of your chosen instrument. Here are some of the most popular and common choices, but always test new toys on yourself first and gradually increase the force at which you hit.

Hand

We recommend that beginners start by using their hand as it is the least severe and is unlikely to leave any last damage. The hand delivers a thuddy sensation that is excellent for stimulating nerve endings. It is less painful than other spanking instruments and may require additional force behind it.
 
Flogging

Floggers can be made of almost any material, but many start out with a flogger made of suede as it’s flexible and a little gentler on the skin. Floggers vary in the markings they leave on the skin due to the diversity of their movement. Most leather floggers are great for beginners – just keep in mind that the type of leather makes a huge difference in the feel of the flogger. Start with something soft and flexible, which will deliver the nice thud mixed with just a little sting, such as the Whip Xavier (€ 66.06, kinky.ie)

Paddle

Paddling is less sever than many long range implements such as whips, canes, and crops. However, it can deliever some impressive and nasty bruises – so don’t go overboard. The thudding sensation experienced is similar to a hand, but it’s much more intense. Paddles have a handle and a wide surface, and are generally made of leather. For something a little kinkier why not try a Studded Paddle (€ 20.41, kinky.ie)?

Crop

This is not for the fainthearted and is most certainly not for beginners. Due to the length of the implement, the slightest arm movement will produce an aggressive bruise or deep red marks on the skin. You’ll have to work your way up to this one! We recommend the Sex & Mischief Riding Crop (€ 15.60, kinky.ie).

Whip

Whips are long and thing, with a real sting in its tail, and should only be used by advanced spankers. Always practice with a whip beforehand and only use a bullwhip if you have received extensive training. For something a little different try the Fetish Fantasy Anal Bead Whip (€ 18.01, kinky.ie).
