- Erotic spanking...
Erotic spanking is the practice of spanking another person for the sexual gratification of either or both parties. Subjects may use their hands, or other tools, such as spanking paddles or canes. Activities range from occasional sensual interplay to domestic discipline and may or may not include a variety of implements. Many cultures described pain as an aphrodisiac early on — the Kama Sutra, in particular, goes into specific detail on how to properly strike a partner during sex.
Practice
Many spankings are carried out with the use of bare hands, or with spanking implements such as paddles, straps, hairbrushes, and belts.
Sometimes other implements are used for the activity: such as a cane, riding crop, whip, switch (rod), birch, gloves, a plastic bottle (the action is called bottling), a ruler (even a yardstick) or martinet. However, these would not accurately be called spanking. Erotic spankings are commonly combined with other forms of sexual foreplay, such as oral sex, sexual roleplaying and/or ageplay. The most common type of erotic spanking is administered on the bare buttocks, but can also be combined with bondage, in order to heighten sexual arousal and feelings of helplessness in the spankee.
Positions used may include:
* over the knees (OTK) or across the lap
* stooped over a chair or couch, or bench
* on hands and knees (bed or floor)
* on shoulder of spanker
* kneeling on a bed or ottoman, stooped over with hands on the floor
* bent under the arm of the spanker
* lying face down on a bed
* bent over, touching toes or over a desk
* lying on back with legs raised upward and toward chest
* handcuffed to a bed
* tied to a doorway
* tied to a tree or pole that is in a safe area outside
* legs spread apart, almost in the splits position.
Those interested in giving or receiving erotic spankings are sometimes known as spankophiles. Examples include the poet Algernon Swinburne (as implied repeatedly in his poetry) and the philosopher Jean-Jacques Rousseau, as detailed in his autobiography Confessions:
... Miss Lambercier... exerted a mother's authority, even to inflicting on us... the punishment of infants... Who would believe this childish discipline, received at eight years old, from the hands of a woman of thirty, should influence my propensities, my desires, my passions, for the rest of my life... To fall at the feet of an imperious mistress, obey her mandates, or implore pardon, were for me the most exquisite enjoyments, and the more my blood was inflamed by the efforts of a lively imagination the more I acquired the appearance of a whining lover."

- Sex and the Floating World: Erotic Images in Japan 1700-1820...
This revised and expanded second edition of Timon Screech's definitive "Sex and the Floating World" offers a new assessment of the genre of Japanese paintings and prints known as shunga. Changes in Japanese law in the 1990s enabled erotic images to be published without fear of prosecution, and many shunga picture-books have since appeared. There has, however, been very little attempt to situate the imagery within the contexts of sexuality, gender or power.Questions of aesthetics, and of whether shunga deserve a place in the official history of Japanese art, have dominated, and the question of the use of these images has been avoided. Timon Screech seeks to re-establish shunga in a proper historical frame of culture and creativity.

- BDSM...
BDSM is a complex acronym derived from the terms bondage and discipline (B&D, B/D, or BD), dominance and submission (D&S, D/S, or DS), sadism and masochism (S&M, S/M, or SM). BDSM includes a wide spectrum of activities and forms of interpersonal relationships. While not always overtly sexual in nature, the activities and relationships within a BDSM context are almost always eroticized by the participants in some fashion. Many of these practices fall outside of commonly held social norms regarding sexuality and human relationships.
- On the bare...
Fiona Locke's "Over the Knee" has become a cult classic, and is considered a definitive work of corporal punishment and fetish fiction in the UK and US. Its reputation spread from online message boards and was helped by a saucy picture of Fiona on the cover 'in action'. Her new title will be even stronger - an anthology of short fiction exploring and updating old-school spanking scenarios. The bratty, the spoilt, and the wilful all get their stinging just-deserts from masterly purveyors of discipline. With twelve new stories all including the requisite detail her spanko fans adore, "On the Bare" promises to be another surefire hit and modern cult classic.
- kink...
Kink is a term used to refer to a broad range of sexual practices (sometimes referred to as kinky), including spanking, bondage, dominance and submission, sadomasochism (BDSM) and sexual fetishism. Kink sexual practices transgress what are considered "normal" sexual boundaries as a means of heightening the intimacy between sexual partners. Some draw a distinction between "kink" and "fetishism", defining the former as enhancing partner intimacy, and the latter as replacing it. Because of its relation to "normal" sexual boundaries, which themselves vary by time and place, the definition of what is and is not kink varies widely as well. Practitioners are sometimes considered to be perverts by "outsiders."
