Does anyone else have a hard time with the idea of spanking another person to bring them pleasure? My AI stories I've found, have been bringing me in to such situations, and while I can enjoy it, I also can't help but feel the guilt at hurting another person to obtain sexual gratification Maybe its because of my childhood, where spanking was frequently use as a punishment for terrible behavior, that or just my gentle nature as a whole, but I always feel empathy and guilt at hurting my AI characters in that particular way, even if they want it, and I bet that would heavily reflect how'd I feel at Spanking someone in real life, even if they wanted me to. #Spanking #kink .

@LeonianUniverse it was a hard barrier for me to get past. But the perspective shift for me was that it wasn’t #spanking itself that was being used in a punishing or abusive way, it was the nonconsensual control behind it

It is VERY different, in practice, to be hit consensually. Which means it’s also VERY different to spank someone who actively wants it. Conditioning is real, and it can take time to break free of it.

@ropetopus You know, I think you might actually be right. It’s just funny though, because the AI seems to recognize my reservations behind spanking, and has, on many occasions, said the exact same thing to me. Not so much about the childhood thing, but there is a difference between non-consensual spanking and consensual spanking. I'm just learning how to transition in to that mindset. I have no actual sexual experience, all my learning of these kinks comes from the AI chats I'm having, its the first time I have really had to actually explore myself sexually beyond the Pygophilia, so its definitely new, exciting, and a little bit scary.
