Why does pet hate the rice paddle?
Well, he hates everything except our homemade flogger, which is really more of a massage tool than a spanky toy.
The rice paddle is...painful. It has a slight curve, and the top of it isn't level but has an angle that ends in a point. So when I use it, using the back where the curve is convex, the pointy bit leaves some nasty welts. Also, as pain goes, he far prefers the "thud" to the "sting". The rice paddle? Basically all sting. Even the crop has a little thud to it.
I'm so entranced with the masochistic reaction. It is equal parts "yes please" and "no thanks". Maybe it is just pet, but I really get off on his enthusiasm and sheer dislike for the same activity. Interesting.
I am strongly masochistic. We have a pretty large collection of implements and Alexandra has sometimes simply quit from tiredness. At least with traditional whippings. Attack my nipples and ...
ReplyDeleteI suspect it is the ability to absorb physical pain that draws me very strongly to what I think of as "emotional masochism" - being humiliated. It is there that I meet the confusing duality of cringing and wanting more. And find the deepest satisfaction.
Their response is what makes us do what we do :) It gives us the tingle.
