An age old Spanking Question: Is over the knee the best??

Definitely OTK - the more old-fashioned the spanking is, for me, the more fun it is.

Subjecting somebody to time-honored old-fashioned discipline punishment is - somehow - MORE embarrassing and mortifying. And that's the fun & the turn-on.

I don't like the bed being involved in any way, if possible (sometimes it's the only option, then I shrug & will go along). Why? Because I do not like mixing in sex with spanking discipline - and a bed infers exactly that (to me).

A sturdy chair in the center of a room is best for administering the old-fashioned spanking. Right? Tried & true :-) And whether the person being spanked is male or a female, either experiences some humiliation going over the knee with their bottom bared for slaps/punishment. If a bed is involved, minds wander to OTHER outcomes (I think), and the intense focus of what a spanking should be gets muddled.

Now a whipping - such as with a strap - is not necessarily best delivered while on a chair dealing with the OTK position. But my personal favs, using hand or back of a hairbrush, benefit greatly by making use of OTK. (Whippings - I'm not thinking of floggings etc - can be great fun administering when the "victim" is bound up with his/her arms stretched way high over their head, & sometimes when forced up helpless on their tip-toes).

Another issue: victim clothed or not clothed? Because I can enjoy either - honestly. Spanking the seat of the trousers can be great fun. The ideal is - predictably - a bare bottom. But.

OTK is usually the best way except for when the person being given the spanking is so uncomfortable in getting into that position and it also is uncomfortable for the spanker as well.

I had tons of spankings growing up but never, ever OTK. Not once. Most of mine were across my bed or bent over something like furniture - couch, table, coffee table. Over the workbench was how it was done at grandpa's place.

Same as above.

Never got otk spankings growing up. I would get pants and underwear down bare spankings standing up or bent over something or laying on the bed or on all 4s but never otk.

Wife has tried to give me otk spankings but I'm alot bigger than her and it's uncomfortable for both of us so we have only done it a couple times.

OTK is best for hand spanking.

If a strap or cane is used, then it would be bent over, maybe with the hands on a chair.

Growing up I was mostly spanked over dads knee, but sometimes it was over the bed or a chair and a few times even the kitchen table..

I find being taken over the knee, or taking someone over the knee to be the classic and most intimate. Being bent over is good too, and can be very humiliating, (especially when bared).

.

Over the knee is very intimate with the two bodies making more of a physical connection, in addition to administering the spanking. This is especially intimate when the two bodies are both naked. Not only is the spanker's bare hand touching the spankee's bare bottom, but the upper thighs and the bits of both bodies are also making a lot of skin-to-skin contact.

If the intent of the spanking is more spanking than intimacy, then most of the other positions make for a more intense spanking. Other positions can also be very intimate, minus the skin-to-skin contact on the thighs and bits.

.

For me, nothing says spanking better than having my pants and underpants being lowered, or removed, placed across the spankers lap,

with one of her legs over mine, locking me in. When using a wooden paddle it does not take allot to get the message across.

By the time you have received several dozen well placed smacks on your bare ass, speaks "volumes"

Good luck just try not to be the one one the receding end on your end!

It ws never intended for pleasure!

It is important to me that during the punishment, the buttocks are spread wide enough so that the sphincter and vulva are visible when the panties are pulled down and the brush, riding crop, or little cane is used. This further humiliates the person being punished and increases the effect of the discipline. Therefore, one of the preferred positions is for the delinquent to kneel on a stool with her head far down, for example. This stretches the buttocks high up and reveals all secrets. But instead of carrying out the punishment immediately, you can intensify the humiliation and shame by first asking a few questions and making announcements while openly inspecting the exposed area. “Why do you think you deserve this?” or “Would it be a good idea to inform your teacher that I have already punished you by spanking your bare bottom?” or “How many strokes do you think are appropriate for your misdemeanor?”

I like to spank over the knee for the following reasons:

1) It is the way little kids get it and therefore the girl (who is over 21) I am spanking

feels like a little kid again

2) As a spanker, I feel it gives me very good control.

3) The position maximizes my physical contract with the person I am spanking.

I mean there are so many positions to put a person into! I still like the OTK to start with. Ask @ccm93 about all the positions she’s been spanked in and which ones she remembers the most.

Best position of all is diaper position gives most exposure plus butt checks nicely stretched and exposed plus most embarrassing positions of all as genitals fully exposed to the room

@ vinnie...what had you in mind ?

I experienced a diaper position spanking for the first time a couple of weeks ago. Whilst not the hardest of spankings I have received, it was a mortifying experience - I could only imagine how horribly exposed I was at the time.

Currently my wife likes me laid over the kitchen table. It allows for a better swing of her arm apparently

Absolutely: for the "delinquent", even just being spanked "over the knee" is very shameful and humiliating...

For sure exactly the part of position, that is most humiliated for the spankee !!

I use all those positions to spank the woman I am spanking and have been using them since I first spanked a girlfriend in college. I think embarrassment plays a very big role in giving a proper spanking, and the 'wheelbarrow' postion, with how exposing it is, I've been told by women is by far the most embarrasing for them. However I think its a horrible position from which to get good leverage, and to deliver a crisp spank to a relaxed cheek. So at the end of the day, if I had to choose just ONE best position, hands down it would be Over The Knee... close & intimate, fully in control of baring her (hiking her skirt or dress up, pulling her panties down), maximum control (hold her hand, pin her hand to her lower back, cross your leg over hers, hold her hair), great view point (easy access to spread her cheeks and expose her more if thats part of the ritual), and just totally the 'classic' position.

Does she resist and protest a lot?

@Amy93 if I may ask, why were you spanked, for what indiscretions? Was spanking reserved for really bad behaviour?

In my opinion, I do believe over the knee is best based on: There is a caring intimacy of being held, placed and purposed. Your being drawn in and focused on. The lap/knees are a great platform to present the posterior. Knees close together provide a narrow perch, which will raise the bottom. It's also a good positioning to spank across the lower sit spots of the bottom, and not to high where the muscles are "thinner". Coupled with a strict, marching cadence of slaps, it's very rewarding when the naughty young man tries to look back at his bottom being slapped.

@BobFromNJ I agree. OTK is the best position to use for the reasons you stated

OTK certainly has its merits, for one even if my butt is suffering its nice to feel the givers erection.

For me though the "best" is on my back legs up/ hugged to chest. Certainly effective spanking, very uncomfortable and giver has access to back of thighs inner thighs etc and there is something to be said for eye contact.
