... do I stay here? This place is such a hot mess.

For one thing, about half the time when I get a notification for a message, I go to my inbox and there's no message there. And yet that orange circle with a 1 in it is still there. I click on every type of message, but nothing. So then I'm left wondering what these people tried to say to me.

If you don't pay, you can't read profiles, you can't initiate contact... you pretty much can't do squat. So, just for grins, every now and then, I buy a month of membership, just so I can read the profiles. It's interesting and fun, but not worth continuing to pay for.

And speaking of profiles -- I have crafted mine very carefully and thoroughly. I try to make clear what I'm seeking. And most guys don't read it. Some of them say they did, but then they ask questions that let me know they didn't. And then I get things like "You must follow instructions and orders." Yeah. You must go pound sand, buddy. Read. The. Damn. Profile.

And what's up with people who want to jump right into phone calls, meet-ups, etc.? I'm not giving you my phone number! If you can't take some time to talk to me via messages on here and tell me who you are, then you don't want to take the time to get to know me. Oh, and guys? Stop offering women your phone number or other personal information right off the bat. You have no idea who they are. Some of my gender are kinda batshit crazy too, you know? Just a friendly warning.

A woman shouldn't have to go through so much aggravation just to get a spanking, FFS.

So why DO I stay? Because. Every now and then, someone comes along and makes it all worth it. Every now and then, a diamond emerges out of the heaps of coal. Every now and then, I beat the odds and forge a connection. And the other sites like this one aren't any better.

Looks like y'all are stuck with me. Who knows... maybe I'm about due to meet my dream spanker.

"What's in it for me?"

I think one of the most frustrating things about being a bottom with a singular fetish (mine is being spanked) is, unless you happen to find tops who share the same enthusiasm for what you enjoy, you more often than not encounter people who don't understand what your deal is.

"You just like being spanked?"

"Yes, I love it."

"And then what?"

"Um... aftercare? Lotion? Cuddling?"

"That's it? Then what do I get out of it?"

(Heavy sigh.)

Are you familiar with FetLife? It's a social media community, a sort of Facebook for fetishes if you will. Yesterday, in frustration, I lamented the dearth of men who purely love spanking and put out the question my male readers -- Guys, when you give a woman a spanking, what's in it for you?

Wow. My inbox blew . So far, 52 comments and still counting. So, rather than try explain myself here, I think I'll just post a few of the most wonderful and articulate responses I received. These are real responses from real spanko men.

"For me it’s about the energy I get from the person I’m playing with. That transcends everything... it’s such a beautiful thing. Hell, even time ceases exist during a session with a person whom you have good chemistry."

"Spanking a willing woman is one of my greatest pleasures in life. It is its own reward. It can be compared a magical dance or a very interactive sporting activity. When goes right, time constraints disappear and both parties turn into happily quivering, sometimes laughing, sated animals."

"(Blinks) I... I don't understand. Who in bloody hell hears "Please spank me" and their reaction is "What do I get out of it?" Are they okay? Do they need to see a doctor?"

"I like sex with my kink as much as the next guy, but spanking just for spanking's sake is an art to be cherished. I'm a very giving top but the "what's in it for me" attitude shows a clear lack of appreciation for every nuance that is involved in spanking."

"What's in it for me? Simple. You get to spank a beautiful woman for her pleasure... and yours!"

"Wow, what a question. A woman going over your lap and giving you the privilege of exposing her bare bottom is giving you a huge gift. Paddling her bottom until it is red and sore is a true act of giving. I've had the pleasure of spankings dozens of women over the years and if the more they enjoyed the experience the happier I was. The best spankings make both parties happy."

And finally, my personal favorite, from a gentleman I love dearly and whom I've known for years, played with many times, and no, I never blew him for his efforts:

"Seeing that you brought it , and quite honestly I’ve been waiting years ask, what’s in it for , Erica? I mean really...you expect me just enjoy the pleasure of having a fun role- with you, the honor of placing you over my lap, the gift of getting pull down your panties see your beautiful naked bottom across my legs, and the thrill of spanking you as you squirm, bounce, and cry out under my hand, ending with an incredibly long embrace from an amazing woman, to just be enough? Really? Well, okay. I guess I’ll just have to live with that because clearly I’m not getting ANYTHING else from that exchange!"

So there you have it, guys. This is how spanking men feel, and why they don't feel I'm taking advantage of them by taking all the pleasure and giving them nothing in return. The is their return. Because they love it as much as I do.

Why don't more of the men on this forum get this?

EDIT, 5/28: Wow. Crickets. No comments and barely any reads. I guess I'm in the wrong place.

Yup. It's long. It's detailed. And for some, it's off-putting.

I state a lot of things I don't do and what I'm not. Why? Because I believe in being honest up front. I don't want to misrepresent myself. I don't want to be accused of lying or being a fake. I put out who I am, what I seek, and figure that helps men decide whether or not they wish to engage.

I'm a spanko. I've been in the scene for 24 years, and I've dabbled in many other kinks. But nothing gets me going like the popular BDSM subculture of spanking. I love everything about it. And I know it is possible to find men who feel the same way.

But it does seem that searching for them here is like seeking needles in a haystack. Still, I persevere. I have met some really fun partners on here over the years.

And then there are the jerkoffs who have nothing better to do than to be nasty to a complete stranger.

I was asked today, "[Since you don't do so many things], what's there to want about you?"

Wow. Nice. Thanks for dropping by to sour my day.

But the answer to that is: Plenty. If our kinks run in the same lanes, I'm one of the most fun play partners you could possibly have. I'm responsive, I'm passionate, I'm engaging. I'm not bad to look at. I'm quick-witted and challenging. And when you take the time to get into my head, I will curl up in your arms afterward, a soft bundle of release and appreciation, all sharp edges dulled.

True, I'm not for everyone on here. But I'm not going to apologize for who I am, or for what my kinks are (or aren't). One thing I can tell you for sure: I'm real. I'm genuine. I'm who I say I am. On this site, from what I hear, that's a rare commodity.

So I'll keep seeking my spanko soulmates. And for the man who wrote that nasty message to me? Please kindly go fuck yourself with a 2 X 4. Sideways.

To Thigh or Not to Thigh?

For spankos -- do you think a spanking should be bottom only, or do the best ones extend down to the upper thighs a bit?

I have a love/hate relationship with upper thigh spanking. No doubt the smacks on the sit spots are felt more when sitting later. But they also hurt more, and mark more. Sometimes, with a trusted partner, I like to go there. Not always, though. It's a little edgy.

So what do y'all think? And which picture do you prefer?

... have I mentioned how much I hate the term "mature"? It's right up there with "cougar," in my estimation. It's just another one of those cute euphemisms for "old." It's not a compliment.

My standard answer to "mature" is attached. I created it all by my little old self -- puts my point across, don'cha think?

Why 84?

I'm sure there are some who wonder why I list myself as 84 years old. That is definitely not my real age. Well, I had to put something. There isn't an option for "None of your fucking business."

So why lie about my age and make myself older?? Because I can't bring myself to lie about being younger. And I'm damned if I'm going to put my real age down. Because if I did, a whole lot of people wouldn't look past that number. "Ugh! That's too old!" and poof, off they go to the next profile. Without really looking at me or reading anything about me.

Whether you want to admit it or not, we live in an ageist society. Especially when it comes to women. Youth is worshiped. There are double standards galore. If an older man goes for pretty , he's a stud. A silver fox. A Daddy type. Older women liking younger men? We're MILFs and cougars. Great, I'm either a mom or a man-eating predatory beast. I assure you, I am neither.

Compliments take on an appendage once a woman reaches a certain age. When you're young and attractive, people say you look good. Period. Once you hit 40, they start tacking on "... for your age." Newsflash, y'all. Any compliment that ends with "for your age" is NOT a compliment. At best, it's a backhanded compliment. And the only place where I want to be backhanded is on my butt, not my ego.

People are allowed to have age preferences; I get it. I have them as well. Most of them are not because of the number, but because a lot of people my age, frankly, don't take care of themselves. (Actually, a lot of younger people don't either, but I digress.) I work hard to keep fit and trim and I am a youthful being. I've never been married, never had , so I guess a part of me stayed in my 20s and always will be. As I say on my profile, the men I'm drawn to don't have to be vegans built like Adonis, but since I take care of myself, I prefer they do too.

I've been dealing with this age crap for years, . Quite some time ago, it was before a national spanking party, and on their message board, a guy had introduced himself, saying he was coming to his first party. He wrote, "I am looking forward to meeting people in their 20s and 30s." Really? He had to make a point of specifying the age range? I made a note of his name, as it was unusual.

Cut to the party. In a crowded room, I see this guy hovering around me in my peripheral vision. Then one of my friends says, "Erica, have you met Xxxxx?" Aha... the age-specifying . I shook his hand and said, "Ah... aren't you the one who posted on the message board that you were looking forward to meeting people in their 20s and 30s?" He nodded, beaming. I beamed a sweet smile right back at him and said, "Aw, that's too bad. I'm 45." And I turned my back and started talking to someone else.

Yeah, I'm a b*tch. But I bet he thought twice before writing anything like that again.

So, 84 I will remain on here. What's my real age? Sorry -- I'll tell you after we talk a bit and we meet in person. Until then, here's a picture from last month, nice vanilla head shot. You can guess for yourselves.

(Wow... I'm going to be 85 in a couple of weeks. I really am getting up there.)

Is the art of communication dead?
Posted:Sep 4, 2019 3:35 pm

Pondering life in the middle of Hump Day. Because why not. I have my own blog, but this is the first time I've ever posted one here.

I’m old enough to remember a time when if you wanted to communicate to someone immediately, you had two choices: see them in person, or call them on the phone. And if you called them, you took your chances that they weren’t home and wouldn’t answer. There was no voicemail. Or they were already on the phone and you got a busy signal. If you had an emergency and had to get through, you dialed the operator and had them break in on the call. People weren’t all that accessible. But somehow, they got things done. They made plans. They did communicate.

Now, people are basically accessible 24/7. Many of us have a phone on our person or at our fingertips at all hours. But we don’t have to make phone calls anymore if we don’t want to. There is texting. There is email. There is online messaging. There is Skype. You can communicate with anyone, anywhere, anytime.

So why do people communicate less now? How did we get so damn busy, so distracted, that we have the attention spans of gnats? Do we have too much stimulation? Is there simply too much to do and too little time in which to do it? Or do we just not care all that much anymore?

I can understand that in other times, people didn’t have the time to devote a large chunk of it to a visit, or to a long phone conversation. But now, it takes, literally, a matter of seconds to let someone know you’re thinking about them. You can fire off a text. You can drop an email.

My partner John and I talk about this. His standard explanation is, “People are busy. And they’re afraid that if they engage, they’ll get caught up and obligated to keep responding.” Yeah, god forbid we should have to respond to others; what a burden. Okay, so people are too busy to answer a text? How come they’re not too busy to binge-watch hours and hours of streaming TV? Or play games online? Or engage in social media until their eyes bug out?

Last weekend, John and I went out to a nice dinner to celebrate our anniversary. There was a family of three at the table next to ours — a dad, a mom, and a teenage boy. While they sat and waited for their food, all three of them stared down at their phones in front of them. They didn’t say a word to each other. The phones weren’t put aside until they got their dinner, and after they were through, the phones were picked up again. Why bother going out together?

In the past couple of days, I’ve gotten a text that reads: “Sorry, I can’t talk to you right now.” I have no idea who the sender is. I don’t know the number. Not only is this person too busy to talk, they’re apparently too busy to even bother to check if they’re texting the right number.

People have the time to travel everywhere to convene with friends. But they don’t seem to have time to spend with local ones.

So what you have is billions of people, with every possible way to connect… and who feel more alone and isolated than ever.

We all want to feel special. We all want to matter. And yes, we all crave attention and validation; some people more than others. So what do we do? Some of us become performers. We provide entertainment until people get bored with us and move on to the latest and greatest performer. Some of us go on really crappy reality shows and make complete asses of ourselves, but hey, at least people are noticing us. That is, until the next hot mess supersedes us. Some people make a whole lot of noise on social media, gathering followers and constantly posting/tweeting to keep their name on feeds. Until they stop… and no one notices. And in extreme cases, some others, feeling disenfranchised and forgotten, get guns and go on shooting rampages with them.

Some strive to stay connected, throwing out those texts and messages like little digital life preservers. Until they start feeling like maybe they're being a pest and stop. And then it’s metaphorical crickets. “Hey, where have you been? Are you okay? I’ve been thinking about you,” seem to be lost phrases. Because we’re just too damn busy and distracted to notice or care that someone’s gone missing.

Does anyone read anymore? Is anyone reading this post? I know that I've written a very thorough introduction on my profile, stating clearly what I seek and hope for. But I don't think too many people actually read any of it; they don't look past the pictures. I've said "NO DICK PICS, please" until I'm blue in the face. Still get them. The other day I was on IM and one guy messaged me about seven times. "I can see you reading my messages," he wrote. I did. And I didn't answer them. Because I didn't want to engage with his dick in my face. Read, y'all. We're all looking to connect. Pay a little more attention and your chances will increase exponentially. We may be on a kink site, but we're still people, not just bodies.

Of course, there is one sure-fire way to get noticed, to be appreciated, to have people say kind things about you.

You can die.

But that kinda sucks. Because you’re, well, dead. And you’re not around to hear the kind things. You don’t get to realize that you mattered after all.

And now I'm going to hit Send. And wait to get the comments that read: "You just need to be fucked/spanked/whatever." (sigh)
