School Discipline
The Plimsol or The Slipper
I’d be interested to know which of the above – plimsoll or carpet slipper – most people thought was more effective or painful to receive. I was talking about this to my wife the other night and I was saying that at school I had the plimsoll and at home the slipper and thought the plimsoll hurt more. She on the other hand, received a teachers carpet slipper at school and at home her mum used a plimsoll and she thought the slipper was more painful. ——————————- Personally I think the plimsoll that I got at school from the gym teacher hurt more than dad with his slipper at home. However i think the real reason is that school teachers whacked harder as they were used to doing it – and knew how to do it well. They also knew how to get the victim to bend over correctly to tan their bottom. i sno ...
Another Dose a Few Days Later?
Did anyone experience this? When you got beaten with a cane then had to endure the same punishment a few days later along the same lines…. I have heard this is excruciating as the skin hasn’t healed anywhere near properly. Surely possibly more painful than just the original initial beating. Also, was anyone told if they stood up or moved or even made a howl during punishment they would have to endure the same amount of strokes again? Or was this rare? ——————————– I was caned ( 3 strokes) and had to endure a slippering after school on the same day. And yes it really did hurt. —————————————— The first caning was from the headmaster and as far as I can remember it was for horseplay in class. I was using a pair of compasses to try and stab my friends hands. The idea was that he spread his hand...
Public/ Private School Beatings in U.K
I am very interested to know if anyone was ‘beaten’ during the 1950s-60s at a UK public or private school? I generally know they were a lot worse at these schools and the further back you go the beatings were worse at these institutions. My real life story is that I had 12 strokes of the cane from an ex public school pupil who was at one during the 1950s. This was quite a few years ago now I received it. He was Head of House. It was quite a punishment I can tell you! Like it was said, you couldn’t sit down properly for a while afterwards. Bear in mind I’m not bluffing the severity of the strokes, these were proper hard. Nor the amount. I was in shock after I received it….. Although that is only one emotion I must add. It made me think if I was around at the time of the 1950s I would ...
Are Females Sadistic
The recent post from ‘well disciplined’ prompted me to dwell on my experiance of being sent to the head by a female teacher.Although his post bears no relationship to my visits for punishment, the fact that a young lady had ‘sentenced me to be caned’ by sending me to the heads office and having to inform him that I had displeased her in some way was certain to result in bending for the cane. Upon return to the class the way that I was questioned by her to establish that indeed my bottom had been caned, confirmed my thoughts that maybe she gained some sort of pleasure in in my distress.I noted over my years at secondary school that it was the female teachers who did most of the sending to the head!!Like ‘well disciplined’ at the the time I hated her, but now years later I wish she could tak...
CP and the end of the Age of Innocence
There is a popular caveat repeated often on reality television here that says don’t try this at home. It certainly applies here to the half-dozen posting in a mainstream publication. Some of this information may seem irrevelant and others who have no interest in the American Way may find it yawnable but I hope some will eill enjoy and/or learn something about our history. Hollywood probably assures that many of this will not be unfamiliar to our estimable Forum. Google has become a souce of a mine lode of links especially when it comes to small city papers in the days of yore as I recently mentioned. Is this happening in regional papers in the UK. In 1939 an article that would appear in the below links wouldn’t raise an eyebrow. The end of the innocence began here with kinky mo...
Then and Now
After visiting with some friends/relatives back in my day, I was able to get some of them to talk about school punishments now versus ones back in our time here in the South. These discussions as well as some of the things I have read online including this site has been enlightening. One of the things I have noticed about here in the south is how much and how little some things have changed in regard to home and school corporal punishments. Both varieties are definitely down in frequency from my days of youth, but I found some things very interesting. First was who can deliver swats vs who cannot. Back in my day both male and female administrators could deliver swats to either gender and no witness required. Then the witness thing began in the 1960’s and it seemed girls, es...
Too Old For Spanking?
I was not spanked beyond age 10. However, when I was 11 and 12 I remember being given the occasional threat of a spanking. So, the possibility was still there, but I never needed to actually get it after 10 years old. Once I became a teenager, I can hardly remember being disciplined at all, much less spanked. I might get a verbal lecture from time to time, but that was it. When I was a little kid, I think spanking worked for me. During those years, I did tend to learn lessons best through the seat of my pants. I think that getting spanked past the age of 12 would have seemed awkward to me and very insulting. My school had corporal punishment in the form of paddling up through 8th grade, which would be age 14. So, I could have been a potential...
Male students – Canings from a Female Teacher
When I was 15 years old, I had a boyfriend who was one year older than me. They had a pretty young female teacher Latin, she was at her late twenties. One day he received a six of the best caning of her that he never forgot. He said that this was the most painful and humiliating caning he received in his entire school career. The fact that he was whipped by a young female was particularly embarrassing. And obviously, she did her job really well. Have you had similar experiences?Was it different to get caned by a female teacher?Did males or females cane harder? —————————– All my canings were from male teachers. I did get the slipper from a female teacher at juniors and there wasn’t any real difference between how hard she hit and how hard the male teachers did. —————————— I never got a cani...
Enjoying the Slipper
Stumbled across this site whilst looking for something else. Reminded me of when I was at private school in the ’80s We used to get the slipper ( a large heavy leather-soled one)from quite a reasonably young female teacher. It really hurt all of us like hell, she was small but she could certainly apply a slipper, and everything was done to avoid ‘tasting’ it; but as I grew up a bit say aged 10 -12 I used to have a secret burning desire to get it off from Mrs Davis and so used to provoke her sometimes. After you knew you were about to receive it, whilst waiting for her in the library, your heart would be pounding, blood rushing through your veins, sweaty palms, and shaky hands, etc. You knew it would be agony (maybe you would cry, whilst getting it, maybe you would not)but you just could no...
A Memorial Caning
My school years were from 1943 to 1953 when SCP was the rule rather than the exception. The build-up to my first caning was largely due to me having slight ADHA -Attention Deficit Hyperactive Disorder. Something not generally recognized in the 1940s and 1950s I had been generally disruptive and disobedient in my Primary school class and was unresponsive to discipline from my lady teacher.My headmaster in agreement with my parents arranged for me to go to a child behavioral assessment center where I can well remember fully enjoying myself playing with all sorts of puzzles etc.The result of my assessment was that although I was intelligent I was strong-headed and just in need of firm guidance and discipline.The headmaster and my parents were in agreement to comply with the advice that a much...
Instruments of correction
Everywhere there are preferred instruments of correction. Obvious one of course is paddle versus cane or tawse or slipper but some may or may not be familiar with switch. There is a plethora of sites both fetish and otherwise, that describe the implements. There are others not mentioned as often like the ferrule. We might want to limit it to school and not domestic. The slipper was rarely used here and the strap more often in Canada but was used in the public schools in the area where I grew up in the fifties but only by the principal for the most serious offense and always on the buttocks on August 26, 2007. A switch makes an ominous ‘swoosh’ sound, rather like a whip, and can be agitated up and down quickly, so the lashes can rain down on the victim, who is usually a spankee...
The Lochgelly tawse (“the belt”) in Scottish schools
I wonder if anyone like me is fascinated by the belt and the way it was used in Scottish schools. This fearful implement, the best of which were made in Lochgelly in Fife, was administered to the upturned palms of Scottish school pupils of both sexes, and it was in common use in classrooms until the mid 1980’s when CP was abolished. In Scottish Approved Schools (for young offenders) it was administered severely across the buttocks. I———————————- I’ve only ever heard of or read of the tawse being used on the heads in Scottish schools of any type. I have seen mention of the tawse by used in Walsall schools in the West Midlands. Walsall was known to be was the centre of the Midlands leather industry in the past so i...
