		<description>Haron,

This is a late post, but this account of yours was one of the first intense spanking experiences of someone else&#039;s that I&#039;ve read about. I have to say that I come back to it a lot in my thinking.

I did find it striking, too, because of three people involved. I don&#039;t, to speak for myself, imagine being spanked by a few different people or even by or in the presence of someone other than my husband. I think I would die of shame.</description>

		<description>congrats on finishing haron!  and this was an incredibly beautiful post, wow.  although i haven&#039;t been reading you guys for long it gave me a beautiful glimpse of your journey.  

and i totally agree, if she&#039;s being nice to you then how can you say no or make any kind of fuss?  i think there&#039;s something different about it being another woman too but i don&#039;t know whether you&#039;d agree with that.

i feel for you with being finished.  that&#039;s fantastic.  :)</description>

		<description>A great entry and indeed there is much to celebrate in submission. Congratulations.

And I kind of hate to do this, but my own experience was that the submission was only the start of another round of studying.

Getting ready for the defense was awful. Going over old notes, reading books and papers that I had used years before in the early days of the project, suddenly coming across paragraphs that made me cringe (and they certainly made the examiners cringe - a lot). I suspect that you&#039;ll find reason enough to be a proper student for a few weeks yet. And we all know what that means ...

And as for the Freudian link that Millie asked about. I still struggle with understanding what he meant in his paper, &#039;A Child is Being Beaten&#039;, which is, of course, his work on spanking fantasies.

In a 1997 book, On Freud&#039;s &quot;A Child is Being Beaten&quot;, one American psychoanalyst mentions that, &#039;In my own clinical practice I have seldom heard an account of the explicit fantasy of being beaten on the buttocks&#039;. For some reason that little sentence has always amused me. I guess it means that one or two of his clients did a little bit of censoring on the couch.

And I really like the idea of sipping champagne during a caning. Seems as if that bottle I opened last night went to waste. We only drank it to accompany the smoked salmon.</description>

		<description>Congratulations! I can completely understand the need for closure, as well. What a lovely way to end it - far more genteel than the close of my MPhil!</description>

		<description>Thanks, Haron!
Speaking of clear signs of the existence of spankos in academia, I don&#039;t know if you noticed that almost every lawyer, no matter if he/she is a human rights lawyer or not, tends to know the ECHR cases on spanked kids or on sadomasochism.  
Moreover, I was very surprised  to read an article about writing a thesis some time ago where the author was discussing the relationship between the student and the supervisor. One of the sentences started like this: &quot;the student, often at the feet of the supervisor...&quot; :) Very mmmm I would say!</description>

		<description>Thank you, everyone, for cheering me on. :) I don&#039;t know what I&#039;d been looking forward to more - finishing the thing, or going online to tell everybody about it.

Sparkle - don&#039;t you worry, there are plenty self-improvement projects Abel can help me with. They all had to simmer in the background for a while, but now I have to go back to things like my piano, and keeping up with the languages, and fiction writing...

Millie - welcome :) If you ever want to moan about your research, you know where to come! I have no idea how spankos come to be represented so well in academia. Perhaps it&#039;s that in order to do research you need to have some deep-seated masochism?</description>

		<description>Hi, and congratulations on your PhD!!!
Actually I&#039;m reading your posts since I&#039;ve started working on my thesis, I still have a long way ahead, but I can assure you that your blog provided a LOT of inspiration (and incentives ;) so far (no, I am NOT working on Tyrer vs UK case ;))
I just had a small question on my mind lately... what is it with researchers and spanking? I think there must be this freudian link something... don&#039;t you?
Hugs and thanks for the great blog!
M.</description>

		<description>Congrats Haron!! Can&#039;t believe you&#039;re done with studying! I know you worked hard, but lucky you to be over it now!! *hoping she finishes also in 4 years! sigh* (Unfortunately, as you can see, my fear of studying is bigger than the one of spanking. hehe Sorry.)

Anyway, a caning to celebrate! Congrats again!! I&#039;m really happy for you!

Huge hugs,
