I’ve long had a fantasy about a rural, religious village, in which it was traditional for the God-fearing, church-going folk to spank their daughters for the past week’s misdemeanours immediately upon returning home from the Sunday service. I picture rows of nervous girls glancing at one another, wondering which of their friends might shortly experience a most uncomfortable home-coming.

A recent post on Jujebee’s blog explored real-life experiences that reveal my idle imagings to be not too far removed from the truth. In a comment, Jennifer then noted that:

I’ve never known anyone to have such similar experiences or at least speak in detail of them. I can so relate to your posts… on more then one occasion one of my sisters or myself or all of us a few times, were “escorted” out of a church service…and for us that meant only one thing…”a spank’in”. It meant, what we called a “church spank’in” now and when we got home a “REAL” spank’in or whuppin.

A man could get religion. Almost.

P.S. If you wanted to make a real girl tremble, you could head over to Master Fitz and His Brat and vote for an implement to be used on Brat this week. The number of strokes is decided by the number of votes, so go and make your mark, so to speak.
