Flashback - Sting Of The Slipper

"Sting of the Slipper"

Anyone who knows me at all knows that I'm a BIG "hairbrush fan". Or should that be "hairbrush hater"? Ah, the dilemma of being a spankee...

Anyway, just because the brush is my (least!) favourite implement doesn't mean others don't often enter my thoughts and fantasies. Belts are a bit of a fave, due to the "wait until mommy gets home" vibe they give me. Paddles fit school scenarios perfectly in my mind (yes, the cane is awesome too, but for some reason I find the US response tends to win over the UK one 8 out of 10 times in my imagined school days for some reason). Wooden spoons are very "Aussie Mum" implements, I think, and then there are all sorts of "sub-implements" like tawses, bathbrushes, ping-pong bats, riding crops, etc.

But then there's the slipper. Although the term "slippering" often refers to the disciplinary employ of any old piece of footwear (slipper, sneaker/gym shoe, sandal, etc.) the use of an ACTUAL slipper for a spanking enjoys a rather specialized place in my mind and fantasies.

A slipper smacking is - to me - a rather intimate form of chastisement, often maternal and typically involving a bedroom setting. It's not the most painful implement, sure, but it is very stingy (providing the right kind of slipper is used!) and very psychological in its innocence and almost childishness.

Okay, enough preamble... to the art piece!

Here, you might notice the return of the redheaded gal who appeared in several of my "classic" art pieces. I like to think of her as either a girlfriend or "big sister" but she could equally serve as a cousin, friend or young mother, even.

Now I look at this piece again, he does look kinda like he's older or at least bigger than her. That doesn't mean he's not reduced to a flood of tears here, as can be seen; that slipper clearly stings!

On the shelves at the foot of the bed, there's some sort of trophy and a book. Is this his room and his sports trophy and study book? Or her room and the trophy and books are hers? The answer helps decide this pair's relationship, IMO.

Is she a tutor hired to bring up this highschool/college jock's grades (he kinda looks the part for that, I think). Is she his younger cousin, a little bully who bosses him around and calls the shots when they're alone? Is she a friend of his sister's, perhaps, fed up with his leering and rude comments and taking him to task at his sister's invitation? Are they boyfriend and girlfriend, and she's laying down the law about what kind of behavior she considers "acceptable" from her guy? Or maybe this fits the the wonderful scenario Aunty Andrea suggested on my previous post, and she's his sister giving him a discipline walloping at mum's behest, because she's too busy right now to do it herself?

Unlike many of my artworks, he's not being held down or restrained in any way; I often tend to think that a "proper" spanking is nearly impossible to endure without making a big fuss and needing to be held, pinned or even restrained in place. But here, either the power of her authority, fear of worse punishment, or perhaps even a sense that this is "deserved" is keeping him laying face down and as still as he can manage as that slipper WHAPs loudly down across his bare, smarting cheeks. Of course, it's totally likely that long before she's done, he'll be kicking and squirming like a little boy!

After all, there are implements that "thud" (paddles, hairbrushes), implements that "cut" (canes, crops) and implements that "sting" (belts, straps)... slippers STING! They're not a "one swat and you're howling" like a Spencer Paddle or rattan cane. Just one well-delivered hairbrush blow can light a bottom aflame and send a spankee into a state of panic ("Oh my god, that was just swat ONE and I've got forty-nine to go??!!"). But a stingy slippering is more of a "building effect" spanking. Each swat stings and increases the stinging in the recipient's cheeks, increasing until it becomes intolerable! "Okay, I can take this... wait, it's really starting to hurt... oh no, now its REALLY hurting... okay, I want this to stop now... ohmygod! Stop! Stop! Stopppp!"

But a good slippering - the type shown here - is also a LONG slippering!

The fact that he seems rather a big boy, and is being spanked to tears (and he's really sobbing his heart out there, poor thing... that pillow's gonna be soaked!) by such a "wimpy" implement (compared to a big scary belt or paddle or something) will likely make this not just a painful lesson, but a very humbling and humiliating one, too... especially if she IS younger than him, too!

"Honestly, a big strong boy like you crying over a few little smacks from a girl and her slipper!"

It's easy to act like a tough guy when a caning makes you cry... it's a lot harder to justify to a macho ego when it was a lady's carpet slipper that made you beg for mercy!

I did, by the way, notice her nipples are rather visible in this piece if you look closely (yeah, I did... hey, I made this, I have an excuse!). Maybe it's cold in there, or maybe she's enjoying smacking those firm buns of his more than she's letting on?

Incidentally, while I can no longer recall the origin of this early piece. I suspect it was a request to do something with a slipper spanking. Or maybe just a desire to reuse this spanker, or to try out this "camera angle" in a picture. Regardless, I think it came out well for it's age, even though the lack of textures on everything makes me wince at how "early CG" this is, and I remember that subtle lens flare on her watch took ages!

IMO, though, it certainly does nothing to dilute the trepidation one should feel when told "You're getting a slippering!"

Off-topic: this piece and write-up - along with a themed Mother's Day post - was scheduled to be posted last week, but real life unexpectedly interfered. I appreciate your your understanding and patience... well, except for that anonymous asshole in the comments who just wants free art, I guess. The "mommy" piece will be up Tuesday and hopefully part one of a new serialized short story (yes, really!) late next week.
