Spanking

Erotic spanking is the act of spank another person for the sexual arousal or gratification of either or both parties.

Activities range from a spontaneous smack on bare buttocks during a sexual activity, to occasional sexual roleplay, such as ageplay, to domestic discipline and may involve the use of a hand or the use of a variety of spanks implements, such as a spanking paddle or cane.

Erotic spanks are commonly combined with other forms of sexual foreplay. The most common type of erotic spank is administered on the bare buttocks, but can also be combined with bondage, in order to heighten sexual arousal and feelings of helplessness.

Many cultures describe pain as an aphrodisiac. For example, the Kama Sutra, in particular, goes into specific detail on how to properly strike a partner during sex
