Who or what is a Spanker?

A Spanker is a person who enjoys spanking others in an erotic context, specifically referring to striking the buttocks. However, it can also encompass adjacent body parts such as thighs, back, or genitals. Since it involves hitting and thus physical impact on the body, spanking is a form of impact play and can be done using implements like floggers, hands, paddles, or canes. In the BDSM context, this always occurs consensually.

Which roles are related to Spanker?

Spanking is particularly common among Brat Tamers, Masters or Mistresses, Sadists, and Degraders. It is present both in D/s dynamics and SM practices, either for pleasure or as a form of punishment. Essentially, there’s the possibility to incorporate spanking into any type of play if it aligns with the preferences of the participants.

Who matches with a Spanker?

The perfect counterpart is almost self-explanatory: the Spankee. Spankees fall within the realm of Sub or Bottom. Some Rope Bunnies enjoy being spanked while in bondage restraint. Many Brats love being brought into line through spanking. As mentioned earlier, many submissive or devotional roles take pleasure in spanking elements. Accordingly, any Dom or Top with a penchant for light or firmer strikes can be the suitable counterpart.

As a Spanker, it is important that…

…you ask your bottom counterpart about their limits, boundaries, and desires, as well as considering their current state of mind. Some days, we may be more sensitive to pain than others. Orthopedic issues might limit the choice of positions for a spanking session. Impact play should not be practiced without proper warm-up and a gentle start to avoid injuries and lasting marks. Cooling cream or ointment should be available for aftercare. Alternatively, other skincare products or cold packs from the pharmacy can be used.
