		<description>Note to Merie:

You ask: "...does anyone have any pointers on how to enhance my spankings?"

Er... Do you mean like tie your wrists to your ankles and a blindfold across your eyes? ...or do with a fully inserted butt plug? ...or maybe try it in front of an audience of friends or strangers? ...or have a group (either all girls, or all guys, or mixed genders...)hold you down? ...or slather your cheeks with peppermint oil or menthol? ...or do it in front of a video camera? ...or maybe a combination of all of the above in the same session? ...or blog about it afterward on Erosblog?</description>

		<description>I'm a femenist, and i definately don't have a problem with getting spankings. I would only have a problem with it if my boyfriend forcefully spanked my bottom against my will. Btw, does anyone have any pointers on how to enhance my spankings?</description>

		<description>I can see how this is a tricky issue for some people, but personally I would say there's a very simple way to reach a conclusion.

Does it feel good? Yes? Then what's the problem?

Imagine getting over the taboo, coming to terms with the fact that parents and peers might not approve if they knew, finding a partner you can trust, discovering an activity you really enjoy... and then being told you only enjoy it because you've been socially conditioned that way.

Not only is this patronising, I think it misses the point. If it's enjoyable, who cares how that particular pattern got woven into your brain?

They can fight the feminist fight, sure, but if there's indoctrination going on then attack that at source, and leave us brainwashed, downtrodden women to enjoy a good spanking.</description>

		<description>This is a topic I've wrestled with (and blogged about) often. As a strong woman who loves to be sexually dominated, my journey to where I am now has been fraught with difficulty.

I am a feminist. I say so unashamedly. I'm a feminist who loves to be tied up with a six foot bullwhip and flogged with it as my partner orders me to suck his cock. This took some getting used to because of the big gender role issues it pushed for me.

But I'm still a strong woman, I still kick ass and no one does ANYTHING to me without my consent. Feminism is my consent. 

I get hit from both sides for what I do (namely my sex writing) and who I am as a sexual submissive. This used to infuriate me. Now I just do my own thing and happily so. Cause in the end, I'm the only one whose opinion counts.

And I love to hit the "submit" button</description>

		<description>Okay, so I wandered off on a tangent there.

*blush*

It happens. "My bad," to quote the lamest idiom of the last decade.</description>

		<description>"To argue that someone's free choice therefore equals a good choice is a little naive, at the very least."

Steff, where'd that come from?  Nobody here's arguing that free choices are always good ones. We're talking here about people (claiming to be feminists) who assert that women lack the ability to *make* free choices.  If you value liberty, you can't be claiming that folks lack the ability to freely choose; you can't be claiming that their apparent choices weren't really free.  When they say "I chose this, so fuck off" you can't be saying "No, really, you didn't choose it, you're not competant or capable enough to make that choice."</description>

		<description>I am both a proud and fierce feminist and a happy and sassy sub. Anyone who can't wrap her--or his--mind around that combination can kiss my well-spanked ass.

Self-righteous knee-jerk folks, regardless of their affiliations, make me grow a big wet one. Seriously.</description>
