I recently received an interesting e-mail from a long time reader named Brett. It read in part:
Bonnie, you have more spanking experience than anyone I know so I'm sure you can answer my question. Whenever I see video of a woman being spanked, as soon as it's over, she nearly always rubs her ass like crazy. Why is that?
I was going to save this question for my monthly mailbag feature, but I decided instead to turn my answer into a top ten list. So, here are my top ten reasons why a recently spanked woman will often rub her sore bottom.
- It provides a great visual display for the spanker (thus convincing him that he's done the job well and need not repeat the procedure)
- It helps to bring oxygen-rich blood to the punished region and aids in healing
- It's a good method for assessing the scope of the damage
- Placing hands over a spanked bottom signals a desire to protect it from further harsh treatment
- When paired with an appropriately contrite facial expression, it's a demonstration of submission
- It focuses the spanker's attention upon the spankee's curvy posterior and other potential activities that might ensue
- It gives the spankee something to do with her hands at a rather awkward moment
- Rubbing brings out the pain, but in a controlled way
- It's kind of fun to feel the heat
- It allows the spankee to symbolically accept her spanking and take ownership of the consequences of her actions
I hope that clears up the mystery!
