My Favorite Spanking Scene: “Fraternity Tales”
(Part V)The Paddling
So at around this time in spanking videos, paddlings were
either of a pretty decent length but fairly tame (no harder than a hand
spanking, honestly) or they were actual hard paddlings that were short, because
the often inexperienced bottom couldn’t take as much. Nowadays we have amateur
videos by CP enthusiasts that give us a much greater variety of implements and intensities. Back
then, not quite so much. (Don’t know where to find indie spanking videos for purchase? Check out the Clips4Sale M/M spanking category.)What makes this paddling stands out is how it sits between
these two options. Rob is about to get seven solid minutes of paddling. I
casually counted out about 200 swats. That is actually quite a lot. It’s longer
than the hand-spanking scene. These are not lightweight swats by any means, but
they’re not as vicious as they could have been. Part of the reason is that Vinnie’s
paddle technique is not the best. He clutches the paddle in a big fist and
swings it like a hammer. Good paddling is mostly in the wrist and forearm, not the biceps.
But that’s okay – the result is that Vinnie’s swats are less powerful than they
could have been, and that allows the scene to last as long as it does. If
Vinnie were a better paddler, this whole scene probably would have had to have
been much shorter. And this doesn’t mean Vinnie isn’t tearing up Rob’s ass. He
clearly is and the marks at the end prove it.This part of the scene starts with Vinnie ordering Rob to
stay where he is as he goes and grabs the paddle to wail on his ass. Despite
the barest attempt at a frat scene, it is not a frat paddle (as much as I love
frat paddles, they generally are not good for porn or inexperienced bottoms).
It is, however, a decently thick hardwood paddle that clearly has the ability
to pack a really good sting. It is not thick enough to bruise, but it is more
intense than the ping pong paddles or leather paddles that were typically being
used around this time.Though Rob has been spanked by Vinnie before, this scene
suggests that this is the first time Vinnie has taken the paddle to him, and
Rob is appropriately nervous as he begs not to be paddled. Vinnie instead grabs
Rob by the shirt and pulls him over to a chair, then forcefully pushes Rob over
into a paddling position, bent over with his ass up. Vinnie pulls Rob’s shorts
back down, and without saying anything to Rob at all in response to his pleading,
starts paddling his ass again.It’s hard to really show how this paddling plays out in
screenshots. It really calls for animated gifs, and I have no idea how to do
that. Rob does not passively accept this punishment any more than he accepted
the OTK spanking. But now he actually does have some physical leverage to push
back. His feet are on the ground. It’s only Vinnie’s strength that’s forcing
him to bend over. So Rob really, really squirms and struggles and bounces and
hops around wonderfully as he is paddled. There is no mistaking the fact that
these swats do actually sting. Some of Vinnie’s swats are not particularly
good, but I’d say at least three out of four swats hit Rob’s ass firmly.Rob’s responses feel really natural. His pained reactions
are accurate. His bouncing, quivering bottom indicates real punishment. All in
all, this scene very naturally plays out the fantasy of what it would look like
for a guy to be paddled by a stronger man and, despite his best efforts, is
unable to stop the punishment. Occasionally Rob overcomes Vinnie’s strength
briefly to stand up or get out position. Vinnie’s response is to grab Rob and
push him right back down for more punishment. It’s incredibly hot for anybody
who fantasizes about the bully top. It is very clear that no matter what Rob
says or does, the paddling is not going to end until Vinnie lets it end.I’ve never seen anybody in a spanking movie react to a
paddling like this. You know when somebody bites into something hot and reacts
by fanning his or her face in some vain effort to cool it off? Rob frequently attempts to do something like
that with his ass. He bounces around clearly trying to shake the stinging pain
off. It is just a wonderful, sexy, and real response. This is exactly how guys
without a whole lot of paddle experience react, and it’s great to see it
captured on film.The other great thing about Rob’s struggling is when he
asserts himself by standing up, you may think the first time that this
indicates when the paddling is going to end. But no, Vinnie pushes him back
down. This happens several times, so the first time you watch this movie, you
actually can’t predict when the punishment will actually end. In my previous
posts I suggested that this movie, intentionally or not, appeals to the
fantasies of bottoms as much as to tops. This is an example of that. The first
time watching this scene, the audience is in the same position as Rob. We can’t
tell through typical cues when the paddling will end, because Vinnie is simply
running the show and not saying anything that would indicate that the end is
coming.And the ending finally comes almost immediately after Vinnie
gives Rob a series of swats hard enough to make a lovely welt on his right
cheek. This time, when Rob stands up to stop the punishment, Vinnie allows it.
Rob’s face expresses a man who has been thoroughly punished. He is not crying
(or fake crying, ugh). But he has an impressive glare of shock at how intense
the paddling was.Even though Vinnie accepts the end of the punishment (Would
he have stopped without that mark? Who knows? Maybe not), he still asserts
dominance. He forces Rob to stand in the corner and pull down his shorts to
show off his literally blistered ass. The screenshots don’t adequately show how
raw Rob’s ass is. Actually the grainy old movie likely doesn’t do it justice
either. From talking to guys involved in these old movies I understand the
nature of the film quality and the lighting they used doesn’t really show
punished bottoms to be as red as they actually are. But you don’t get a welt
like Rob gets without having a dark, crimson bottom. Rob probably did not sit
comfortably for a couple of days after this punishment.In Part VI, I’ll look at how the physical dynamic between
Vinnie and Rob helps make this scene so successful.(All screenshots from “Fraternity Tales” by
