Tantalizing pictures, B. Can't wait for the stories, already :-)
My fave is drawing 6 :
"I am convinced I got a good education and for my young daughter I shall use the cane soon on her bare bottom."
Oh my! So writes a good lady mom in Janus (late 1970s) describing the bare bottom canings she & her two sisters gotten from pop at home. She describes bending over a chair - I do love drawing 6, B - and how her childhood discipline was akin to the early, pioneering 1977 Janus film "Late for School". This was one of the world's first-ever spanking films of the modern genre, B.
This film had a massive impact on me, too. The mother writes delightfully, B,
"In my opinion Late for School it is a marvelous film - good quality and very real. I think I know a lot about cp because my parents are very strict and my sisters and I got the punishments at home from mum and dad".
She continues
"I could identify myself very well with that girl in the film. I had to put my skirt in the waistband but I had to remove my knickers completely. Then Ii had to kneel on a chair that stood against a table, just like I saw in the film."
"Then dad took the cane and swish and smack, there came the first cut on my bare bottom. In contrast to the film, I got the cane on my hands if I touched my buttocks."
"Next he raised the cane and swish and smack again, Usually I got six."
Dearest, B. This is truly delightful. And a reminder of having the cane across my own bare botty as a child from my own loving but stern, Christian mother. Pray, it was normal punishment. I do love the UK/European letters in Janus. Regarding the cane notably!!!
The good lady mom continues,
"Then I had to stand in the corner with my hands on my head. but not quite like the girl in the film. I had to stand to attention and it was not allowed to rub my buttocks. If I did so I got the cane again on my bottom, still bare."
And drawing 4 has a similar vibe, B. Ouchiees to botties :-( These pics bring back exciting memories of discovering the latest Janus & roue editions (art, photos, letters, articles & stories) as a student in the late 1970s, & then as a working girl staring my career in the early 1980s.
Love the last drawing, in the Georgia woodshed, B :-)
"Why, yes, I'm gonna take the skin off your soft hiney, my girl!"
Or to quote one gentleman in Janus: his letter about living next door to a kind, strict mother with three daughters - "the sound of girls crying and the smack of the leather strap on bare buttocks through open windows." Delightful, B. It was all just normal, necessary, par for the course! Hugs n smackies, B Nostalgic Brenda xx
Drawing for will be about "The Secretaries" two girls from a scretarial school being interns at a law firm during their summer vacation... Last drawing for "Farm Life" a young couple goes for a week of vacations at a farm... Stay tuned! Hugs and smackies :) B xx
Oh my! Can't wait to see these stories, B :-) I commented on July 13th, la fessee cul nu. In my mindset, I am currently aligning the vintage Janus letters with your contemporary stories, B. It's mesmerizing. Gives lil' Ol' me a reality-based, authentic perspective & indeed a foundation stone & nostalgic, factual context about corporal punishment. Very much part of my memoirs project obviously. Big thankies n spankies, B. Good Spartan Brenda xx
