Cane to bare botty: proper, appropriate chastisement for y'all daughters.
ReplyDeleteDearest B, I so love the top two photos - a strict father disciplining his naughty daughter in the proper British fashion of yore. No wishy-washy nonsense back then!
I'll be 64 already in the New Year 2023 - a vintage Southern belle ha-ha! (Once a Southern belle, always ....) Oh my!
As a student in the late 1970s, I changed my American First Amendment of The Constitution to a wise, old edict from the Janus editors that I discovered from Janus magazine in store: namely, that naughty daughters at home should be given "a sensible knickers-down caning" from mom n pop. Yes, sure thing. And I totally agreed with that in an absolute fierce, authentic fashion!!!
I gotten raised in the 1960s with a plethora of corporal punishment: aka panties-down canings from my mother (& occasionally from pop) In fact, y'all daughters gotten spanked in Georgia...indeed y'all daughters gotten spanked in America. Period!
The top two photos bring it back most viscerally: the sound of two naughty lil' girls wailing & the smack of rattan cane on our bare botties was so familiar in our house. Indeed, our elderly, pious neighbours heard it regularly, & always commended our mom on her strict methods. "Biblical switchings" our neighbours called it (a scary phrase I thought) as we went to church together.
The cane was harsh but harmless. Safe & salutary. And it was the making of me & my sister. It made perfect sense, B - our bare, chubby, well-padded, alabaster-white botties, covered in an abundance of ultra-soft, uber-sensitive skin provided a practical, necessary target for the cane in front of God (with our panties pulled down) That was the punishment in our strict, loving religious family. Consequently, I gotten a good school & university education, happy upbringing & a super career (over 40 years already) because of my mom's strict discipline. Ditto for my younger sister (in her early 60s now)
Working for a global Atlanta corporation (started early 1980s) I gotten to meet overseas colleagues, which fascinated me. I have many besties in our Nigerian cohort & I discussed childhood discipline with some of them. These lovely, successful, educated ladies (raised 1950s onwards) usually had very strict, aspirational parents and were mostly raised with the cane across their bare bottoms a bunch over the years. Their panties did not remain in situ for the rod! No wishy-washy, wokerati PC was tolerated for sure!!!! Quite right too.
The strap also featured in Nigeria (& Africa generally) but the cane was much more common. Of course, this was the opposite of the American South, where the strap is felt across daughters' bare bottoms more prevalently than the cane (my sister's and my botty notwithstanding ha-ha!!!) Oh my! I was beyond fascinated to discuss these details with Nigerian women, B, & with other females from UK, Europe, Singapore.
I was always discrete & professional over coffee n bourbon, B. But Atlanta is "spanking central", so I gotten an awesome perspective. So yes, those top two lovely guidance photos: when naughty girls throw tantrums in store: out comes the cane and down come the panties. So that bare botties can sting like Hell on earth. That is the punishment!
Strict, Ol' fashioned Brenda xx
