I want to be an academic

I’ve just found that Google has a “Scholar” site that searches academic papers. A search on “corporal punishment” serves up more than 10,000 papers.

Whilst I suspect that the majority of these aren’t in the least bit kinky, the ideal of turning up in the office in the morning and researching spanking has a certain appeal. (NOT that these days I ever go into my office in the morning and research spanking rather than doing the work I’m supposed to be doing. Honestly).

I do so love unearthing learned reports on the web that explore historical corporal punishment. This, for example, was published on a Canadian government site:

“Punishments were meted out frequently for simple disciplinary offences, often of the most innocuous kind, and whippings were administered before an assembly of the inmates…. In the prison’s female quarters young girls experienced similar treatment. The records show that one 14 year-old was whipped seven times in four months.”

Haron, c’m here. Role play ahead…
