Spanking has become quite popular in the bedroom, and it is an excellent opportunity to experiment with dominance, spice up your foreplay, or enjoy the extra pleasure that comes with a little amount of pain. It may seem intimidating, but when done properly and consensually, spanking sex can add a thrilling element to your intimate times.
You must be aware of it and understand how to carry it out in order to provide a satisfying experience for both partners.
What is spanking in sex?
Spank meaning to hitting someone on the buttocks with a hand, is a popular form of sensual play. Often used in BDSM (Bondage, Discipline, Sadism, and Masochism), it involves striking the buttocks with a hand, paddle, or other implements to enhance intimacy and add an element of kink to the bedroom.
Also known as ass spanking, is used to promote arousal and enjoyment through a kind of pleasurable torment or punishment. It might range from slapping on the buttocks to tying up your partner for more intense strikes that deliver a firmer impact. As with many intimate activities, this necessitates open communication, mutual respect, and an awareness of personal comfort levels.
Safety and consent
Consent and safety are unquestionably the most vital aspects of any sexual relationship. For BDSM, it is routine to discuss what types of sexual acts or scenarios you both want, as well as which actions you wish to avoid. Consents can be verbal or nonverbal, and they can be a mutually understood signal to indicate when the intensity of play should be reduced or increased.
Physical safety is also quite crucial; even if you are only spanking for one day, you must be very aware of the parts of your body where you will spank and how hard it will be; try to avoid sensitive and injury-prone areas. Take proper position and comfort into consideration for both partners to enjoy the exhilarating experience of sex in a joyful rather than regretful manner.
Tips for beginners
To know how to give a spanking, start following the below points:
- Begin with warm up: A light smack on the buttocks with your palm might help novices become excited about spanking. You will gradually notice the intensity of both partners.
- Everything is agreed upon: Discuss your limitations, the tools you'll be using, and the frequency with which you'll hit; everything must be agreed upfront. Since it's your first time, talk to each other during the experience to gauge comfort levels, ensuring the activity can either be intensified or paused based on feelings.
- Positioning: There are some regions of the body where spanking is acceptable while others may cause severe pain. So, place your spanking appropriately.
- Be alert: See your partner's reactions to determine which one is doing well or not, based on the noises and movements they make.
Don’t overdo: If you notice that your partner is in too much pain, stop; overdoing it may lead to a relationship break and trust issues.
Communication tips
Communication has always been the most vital component of your sex life, and this hold applies to spanking as well.
- Discuss Expectations: Discuss what you both want to experience, how far you can go, how many tools you plan to use at once, and so on. So that you have a pleasant intimacy experience.
- Non-Verbal Cues: Set the nonverbal signal, which can be gestures or actions, to indicate to your partner that you are liking it or causing pain.
- Check-in During Play: Check the status in between your plays and enquire if it is uncomfortable or pleasant.
Aftercare
Aftercare, it is important to demonstrate and let them feel your emotional and physical connection. It can involve cuddling, asking how they felt, or simply talking. If you notice the spanking was a touch rough, you might gently rub or soothe that area. Overall, aftercare is a process for people to connect and care for one another.
So, in conclusion, if spanking sex is done safely and consensually, it can be enjoyable and exciting. Follow the recommendations and safety rules to experience spanking as another way for experiencing intimacy before sex.
Always prioritize consensual spanking, and don't be hesitant to explore and adapt to find what works best for you and your partner.
