Recently, while I was hand-spanked, otk in the middle of our living room, I felt a vibration on my wrist. Since I was a bit preoccupied, I didn’t check at the time. Since I have ADHD plus assumed it was likely work-related, I promptly forgot about it, that is until I opened my phone and saw this:
95 decibels — how loud is that? I had no idea so I looked it up on the interwebs and found that 95 decibels is as loud as a jackhammer or subway train.
That’s pretty loud. Again, this was a hand spanking. Taking the news to the website formerly known as Twitter, I shared my news:
The always lovely @JanTweetly commented that she had questions. When I asked what they were, she replied:
This is said post.
Q: Whose?
A: Mine– receiving.1She was too polite to ask “why.” Even though it was pretty recent, I don’t remember. Maybe just because it’s fun?
Q: What noise exactly set it off?
A: The sound of Paul’s right hand clapping.
Q: Does it [Apple Watch] expect any response from its alarm?
A: No, but it scolded me, saying that “prolonged exposure” might cause hearing loss.
Q: Does Siri make inappropriate comments?
A: All the time, but not at that precise moment.
This sound alert brought me back to a discussion years ago in another time and place. When people were talking about the first word that came to mind when they thought of a spanking, mine was “loud.” It was not anyone else’s selection.
The sound spanking smacks make (especially with a small light paddle) is deafening to me and ratchets my fear level up to eleven. I’ve always assumed it was the association I somehow made with childhood as I was spanked far too often, far too hard, and a lot of times with a wooden ping-pong or other paddle.
This means I can react to a loud spanking as if I’m being killed, but be rather stoic, at least some times, for canings or strappings/tawsings. Since being diagnosed as neurodivergent, I’ve now begun wondering if it’s as much a feature of that. I am pretty reactive to noise generally, finding it near impossible to focus where there’s loud music, conversation, televisions, or slot machines.
I also try super hard not to make noise/cry out myself.
Do you find the sound sound of spanking difficult?

You know what’s wonderful about this post? To learn that you are still having your bottom smacked by Paul, that the two of you are still together.
For us, shy and private as we are, “The Scene” is essentially, always will be, a parasocial space. We know, of course, that we don’t really KNOW you, but we followed you and felt for you and — as an anglo married to and spanking a Latina in a relationship with a simmering punishment dynamic — we identified with you. When you took down your content, we hoped that the two of you were still OK and together.
So this was a joy to read. Bendigas.
It’s lovely to read that too.
Paul is still smacking me and I still find it pretty wonderful. That said, things are hard right now and I’m going to have to post about that at some point.
It’s been a tough decade, you know?
