Kink of the Week: Eight little letters « Behind the Chintz Curtain

Mar 27

‘Spanking’. I’m fascinated by the fact that, within the context of impact play, this simple, eight-lettered word can have so many different meanings …

I could go on, but I think you get the idea. Put simply, a spanking can be many, many things. That’s the beauty of this wonderful act; the interpretations of it are endless and so very, very personal.

*Thank you to Molly Moore for letting me know about Kink of the Week and for showing me how effective a word cloud can be. (This one was inspired by the one she used in her Myth busting: the submissive woman lecture at Eroticon 2013.)

I love the word cloud! I use an “association” tool, it’s like a word cloud/thesaurus, when I am struggling to find the right word sometimes, and sometimes it leads me in the most unexpected places.

I agree that spanking can be all those things and so many more.

So glad to see you joining in on the Kink of the Week!

  Thanks, Jade! I have Molly to thank for the idea – she did such a brilliant one at Eroticon to describe submission and it really struck a chord. Love the Kink of the Week meme, by the way. Can’t wait to join again! Jane xxx

The word cloud encompasses it all, it’s excellent.

Jade has put it better than I could but the word cloud is a really cool idea. It captures so many different things so simply.

Thanks, Malflic. I keep thinking of more words each time I look at it; It’d be so interesting to see others’ versions – would they be similar or different to mine, I wonder? Jane xxx

Such a lovely idea, the word cloud. Yep, I too was impressed by Molly’s at Eroticon, but such a nice idea of you to create one to describe everything a spanking is and can be
