Breaking the skin

For some people, the site of blood is an essential part of a spanking session. For me though it's going too far. A flat implement like a paddle is let likely to break the skin than something like a thin cane or strap. I find the stripes from a caning or bruises from a long hard spanking a massive turn on but in my opinion but that's as far as we need to take it. It would be interesting to hear what others think.

I think it all depends on the person on the end of the spanking,they might love being pushed to their limits,to see what they can take.
