MBS Spanko Brunch #319

Hi everyone, and welcome back to our weekly community discussion. Our topic this week was suggested by "Leah the Lurker."

Have you tried any sort of historical spanking roleplay? If, so, what is your favorite scenario in terms of time, place, and roles? If not, does this concept hold any interest? Why or why not?

The guidelines for brunch are the same as usual. You are encouraged to share your response and interact with colleagues though comments below. Once everyone has had a chance, I will post an edited summary of our conversation.

Hi Bonnie--Great question. I am currently working on an idea for a couple of short stories which would be continuations of Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice, which takes place in the Regency period in England (about 200 years ago). I love the original story, but can't help wondering what happens after the sisters are married. :) So, I will be curious to see what others have to say about this topic. Although I've not done historical role play myself, I might be tempted by a Gone With the Wind Scenario. Fiddle Dee Dee.

I have read many stories about caning in the English school system from the turn of the century. My fantasy involves a caning scene that is related to a missed school assignment. I have written the American equivalent of the scene involving a grad student who misses an assignment in class because of a flu virus and is given the choice of a caning or an "F".

I would love to watch a historical movie involving spanking.

joeyred51's idea sounded good. I'd love to see the modern day grad student choose a caning over an F. For myself, having never made an F in my life, it would be a no-brainer.

Love,
Kitty

Yes. We are living history re-enactors,with a focus on the American Civil War. We have often dressed up on our period-correct attire and played, sometimes snapping pics. I plan to share some of them in the near future.

Kitty,

I did not choose the "F" in my story! :)

I've never tried anything like that. I suppose I'd be open to it but don't have any particular scenarios in my mind. I think it'd be WAY too hot (temperature wise) to wear some of those old costumes though, so I may not be too keen on that.

joeyred51,

That doesn't surprise me, lol!

Love,

abby said...

Hmm, have done some role play, but never of any historical scenes. I agree with Lea...lots of clothing involved. abby

Bonnie, I have always loved the nostalgic era such as the Regency, Victorian, or Edwardian period. Especially when naughty women wore old-fashioned bloomer's, that were a joy to pull down from their voluptous bottoms, to be caned or birched, on their naked rear ends.

Oh gosh, I love historical role play!

My lover plays a cowboy and I'm a saloon girl that he "convinces" to be monogomous through a strapping with his holster's belt.

I'm a harem girl and pasha whips me for teasing the eunich. I'm then shown what a virile man does with his erection.

I put my hair up and play Marie Antoinette who is decadent and needs harsh punishment.

I'm an innocent heiress traveling across the ocean who is captured and abused by Blackbeard the pirate.

Of course my favorite is naughty school girl who is caned by her headmaster.

I LOVE historical role play; my school students have no idea that the many costumes I wear to bring History class to life have other uses after hours!

My favorite? Being flogged by the evil pirate after he captures my ship en route to the Spice Islands.

Not really tried it, although that whole post-war Britain caning heyday is a turn-on. As is the Victorian era.

Most historical scenarios don't hold such a big appeal for me, since women often were in rather weak positions in ancient societies. I'm not really interested in being a maid, an obedient wife or an innocent fair lady.

But I'm a fan of ancient naval discipline, and I would love to play a young midshipman (as a bottom) or a higher ranked officer (as a top) on an 18th century armed vessel. I guess to enjoy historical scenarios, I would either have to play a male character or a woman disguised as a man. Or the historical facts would have to be changed for the roleplay, in a way that allows women to do the same things as men. What is the fun of historical roleplay if one isn't allowed to wear a sabre or a sword? ;-)

My historical fantasy, set in the 18th century, would involve Demelza and Ross Poldark from the Winston Graham novels. There was the odd bit of spanking in those books, and I would like to expand on the theme.

Although I am a bit short on costumes (non at all) I love historical role play. My favourite period is the late Victorian and Edwardian era. The formalized, almost ceremonial style of CP, in that era, is very appealing to me and I loved the cloths of the time. Shame it is, that I cannot put together some appropriate costumes.

Hm...historical role play would probably not be my thing. However, I generally have only a limited interest in role play to start with. The closest thing to historical role play I can really see myself participating in would be to either be made to "cut a switch" (the tree branch kind, lol) or to dress in a 1950's-ish outfit for some nice 1950's household-type role play. I tend to favor more realism in my spankings, and prefer those that are for "real reasons", even if that reason is "because I feel like it" or "to remind you who's in charge". That just seems to be my preferred style of play at the moment. Who knows, maybe later I decided to give it a whirl, and it would be interesting because in addition to costumes, there's also the use of historical type implements! ^_^ Old school hairbrushes look so awesome!

I like fantasies! I'm afraid mine would be the cliched version, though, of school play (think Jane Eyre or The Secret Garden). It would be fun to be the young teacher taken in hand.

As a grad student myself, the idea (even if only fantasy) of getting a caning for missing an assignment in class is enough to give me nightmares!! :)

A'marie said...

I've never really thought of it, but I do find guilty pleasure in Judith McNaught's historical romance books. Despite having a wildly active imagination, I don't know that I would be very good at roleplaying.

If I put any thought into it, the time frame it would definitely be European Renaissance. Which would of course require an awesome costume, right? ;) I guess I have a hard time with the scenario, though. I do enough things in real life that are spank-worthy, that it's a bit ironic to think about role-playing a completely fictional reason for a spanking.

Daisychain said...

Wow, what a lot of you have great fantasies!
I am afraid history always bored the pants off me (pardon the pun!)so I know nothing about it really, other than we won the war, haha! and I tend to be more forward thinking than historical thinking...my fantasies simply involve Davey and I occupying the same part of the planet.... xxxx
