Every once in a while I’ll receive an email or see a comment posted on a forum stating that spanking scenes aren’t realistic. And you know what, I couldn’t agree more.
However, in order for websites and content producers to continue to provide entertaining scenarios that hopefully have a bit of variety and yet always conclude with a spanking, you have to push the boundaries of reality.
Real life can be boring and most likely won’t result in a naughty brat getting a non-consensual disciplinary spanking. Employees that repeatedly show up late to work or insult a client will be fired, not spanked by their boss (or if they are spanked, the employee will sue for harassment, not promise to be a good girl). Teenagers and college students living at home are far more likely to lose privileges or not get reprimanded at all rather than be spanked by a parent these days. Disruptive students are given detention, suspended, or expelled far more often than routinely spanked or paddled. Shoplifters are arrested and fined and so on.
Sometimes I’ve thought it might be pretty funny to do a scene with the typical naughty brat set up, but once the girl fearfully asks if she is going to be spanked, she’s informed that no, she is grounded instead. End of scene. Very realistic, but probably not what most people are looking for.
Even the spankings themselves can be declared less than realistic. I can certainly attest to them being very real – the implements are real, the pain is real, the redness and marks are real, the reason might even be based on a real life event, but the amount of discipline is not necessarily realistic. The punishment will often far outweigh the crime. For example, I’d think that even in schools that still allow the use of corporal punishment, a disciplinary paddling would be limited to a few swats over the clothing, not the few dozen I received on the bare in my last school scene. Non-consensual domestic spankings would be much shorter as well; perhaps a minute or two, not the 10 – 30 minute or even longer sessions we see in films. And I’m reasonably certain that a girl wouldn’t get spanked by practically everyone she met, perhaps multiple times, as we see in series or longer scenarios.
But in order to satisfy the needs of a content hungry website or to produce a full length video, you have to think outside the box a little. Three swats or a minute of hand spanking isn’t going to fly. Sure, it can be refreshing to see a girl get perhaps a realistic 6 solid strokes of the cane or 3 swats over the jeans with the paddle once in a while, but those would be comparatively very short clips that would no doubt result in emails and comments about scenes being far too brief and not showing enough bare bottom. On a slight tangent here, but I’ve never been more aware of the fact that it is 100% impossible to please everyone and so I pick my battles. 
Spanking scenes are by and large entertainment; not a documentary. It is a fantasy world where misdeeds are always punishable by spanking. Sometimes it can be really far out there with storybook characters coming to life and sometimes it can be a little more realistic (say, reality TV real) with plausible scenarios that are punched up enough to consistently result in someone winding up bottom up. But no matter what, I hope you’re able to temporarily put the need for absolute realism aside and just enjoy.

In all speculative fiction (Science Fiction/Fantasy( there is a need to suspend disbelief in order to enjoy the story.
I never think about the why when seeing some lovely young girl kicking and wiggling while here bottom is turning a bright shade of red.
The interaction between the participants and the reaction of the unfortunate(?) girl are all that is important.
Many times my imagination in seeing the stills is better than the video.
The only time I would care about realism is when I would be a participant.

July 30th, 2009 - 9:40 pm
Pixie, you so eloquently described the “dilemma” of producing content that, no matter what you do, will never please everyone. However, so many ARE pleased with what you produce and personally, I find your approach to be very refreshing. There is a site out there for everyone (although I would not have believed this prior to my finding Punished Brats!).
You mentioned that sometimes the spanking scenes are for real life events. I do recall two PB videos in which this was said to be the case: “Serious Mom” and “Manipulation”; one of which we were told the real reason and one in which the specifics of the underlying issue were not mentioned. I had assumed this was a rare occurrence. Are there many other PB videos that fall into this category? I would imagine that the reason portrayed is never the real reason because, as you said, the punishment depicted usually outweighs the misdeed depicted in the storyline.
In the case of “Manipulation”, I had thought this scene seemed more real than many others I have seen, even before it was revealed that there was a real underlying issue; the emotion just came through both characters much more powerfully than usual and contributed so much to the scene. The level of trust between the spankers and spankees in your videos really shines through.
What changes about the scenes in which the spanking is for a real offense? No safe word? Straight to the bare? Do the young ladies usually bring up the idea themselves? Thank you for “bare-ing” with my many questions LOL…
July 31st, 2009 - 12:04 am
For those interested in a realistic spanking on film, the one in Weeds is probably as close as your going to get. I expect most viewers had the same reaction I did. Wait, what…rewind, rewind! A half a dozen or so swats delivered so fast they barely register until it’s over.
The grounded brat could be funny. You could make her a spanko who keeps getting frustrated in her quest for a spanking, forgiven, grounded, etc. Cut it in between several other scenes or over several updates until she finally stamps her foot and demands her spanking. A spanking she quickly learns might not be what she thought it was going to be like.
July 31st, 2009 - 12:44 am
I watch this stuff to escape reality for a moment. I know it is not real, but it is that very fact that is one of the reasons I watch spanking videos. We all need worlds to escape to. For example today and yesterday at work I was in my own little fantasy world dreaming about the next story I want to tell via book. Hey sometimes I even dream one of my books will get published…see it isn’t likely to happen but Like I say “Ein Mann traumen kann…” (A man can dream) It is good to have those fantasy to escape to, because if not we would go insane.
July 31st, 2009 - 3:32 am
I understand what you’re saying, Pixie. I think as a producer you want to make something you like. It only needs to be as “real” as satisfies your creation. There should be some point you’re trying to make, and that’s your underlying guide for what works or not. And as they say, truth is often stranger than fiction, so what are the real boundaries?
I’m attracted to realism in spanking scenes, but what’s real? If I was creating a spanking video, or telling a spanking story, I would strive to make the viewer or reader believe it’s real as I stretch reality or conventionality as I need to. One easier way is to make a period piece where the setting allows for realistic non-consensual discipline. Another would be a foreign setting with prisoners or slaves being punished. But the theme I like best is old-fashioned methods employed in natural, contemporary settings. It can take extra time and effort to get an audience to buy into an unconventional scene. Unless it’s pure fantasy, you have to set up a believable situation that allows the audience to accept something out of the ordinary, and then stay within the bounds of reason you’ve created. It takes more set up, so it may not be practical or popular. I’m just describing what works best for me, not saying that any producer should do anything different than what they do, or have the time and resources to do. Some videos really work for me, some less so, and I think it usually has to do with whether I’m able to accept it as plausible and consistent with the scene being depicted. That doesn’t mean it can’t be highly unusual.
Another very interesting topic.
Thanks,
Dana

Whatever happened to the simple idea of a “willing suspension of disbelief?” These complainers must be miserable at the movies.
July 31st, 2009 - 6:58 am
Pixie very interesting post.yes in an ideal world all the brats would be spanked but at p.b. they are and thats what we all love to see .botties of naughty young very pretty girls given big spanks by authority ,parents ,teachers girl roommates big sisters etc .pixie do you watch Midsomer with chief inspector Barnaby the television detective ENGLISH series which we enjoy in u.k. i know you get some of our programmes in U.s.A. love and spanks tim xxxx
July 31st, 2009 - 7:47 am
The “Pixies Previews” I’ve watched, [through my fingers], seem to be done very much tongue-in-cheek. They are fun because it looks like the participants are having fun. It may be more realistic to have the spanked- secretary screaming about lawyers & sexual harassment but I don’t think it would be very enjoyable. You have a winning formula Amber, no reason to change.
July 31st, 2009 - 9:23 am

You’ve certainly hit on the major problem in our public schools today….no discipline. It was really a deterent when I was in school. It was real then…

I know you already understand this, but when I visit your world I look forward to the magic of it. I have the chance to show you this make-believe side of me, and love to see the make-believe side of you.
That’s the whole point, and it is important to me to explain it well.
I like you because you can be Goldie or Red or other magic people. It appeals to the little smurf side I always recognize in myself. I feel like I want you to visit me in my play house in the forest.
Punished brats is an outlet for what can’t be shown in other contexts of life.
I can put on the mask of pretty fantasies and leave the other world behind. I can’t really put into words the feeling of safety this gives me.
You know that I like you, but I also like to leave thoughtful comments that may help others to realize this is a safe place for them, too.
The world of Pixie is indeed magic to me. Who needs total realism? It’s the imagination that counts.
July 31st, 2009 - 11:33 am
hi punkin,
great topic as usual.
i once said [i forget if email or blog] that spanking is like war. during ww2 film crews shot actual battle scenes. the footage was dull as dishwater [perhaps some entirely too real] so they shot some punchup scenes after the fact and sent that to the newsreels.
given that the spankings @ pb’s are real the set ups, and aftermath give the most promise for creativity.
maybe some would complain but i think 5-10 min. of a spanking is more than enough. pretty girls in various stages of dress & undress before and after the spanking would keep me happy even if it meant a slightly shorter [but more intense] spanking.
of course this topic has my mind racing with ideas so you’ll probably get yet another boring email.
ya don’t fix what ain’t broke. pb’s is wonderfull just go on having fun with it.
big hug,
ddon
July 31st, 2009 - 1:05 pm
I won’t pretend to speak for everyone, but I think the majority of spankos do appreciate scenarios that depict a world that revolves around spanking. It may not be based in reality, but that’s the point since we are talking about fantasies.
Seeing otherwise mundane situations shown with a spanking twist is a great escape.
July 31st, 2009 - 1:07 pm
There is definitely a part of spanking that is an escape from reality… and that goes for more than just professionally made spanking videos. We recently were spending time with a spanko friend and had a discipline role-play spanking happen over a pinch. In “real life” if someone pinches you… lol… you say… HEY, WHAT’S THE DEAL! Not, okay young lady you need to be taught a lesson about keeping your hands to yourself… etc-etc.
Have had spankings over the pizza delivery being late, touching a paddle, being 30 seconds late… etc-etc. While there is a more serious side of spanking… a good deal of it, at least for us… is “silly” play (though like you say, doesn’t mean the spankings aren’t REAL).

People who are obsessed with demanding reality in unreality are probably out of luck. Anyways, for me viewing a real non-consensual spanking would have an uncomfortable snuff film-lite feeling, whereas viewing a real consensual spanking would seem like an invasion of intimacy. Rather than demanding Reality in fun, fictional spanking videos, go out into the world and make your own reality.
July 31st, 2009 - 4:27 pm
Dear Pixie,
I have been an ongoing member of PB since the start.
You do WELL! Extremely WELL…
No less than 42 PB videos got a “4-Star” rating (the highest) in my personal rating system. Out of the thousands of videos I have collected over the many years… The highest number in comparision with all other “Girls get spanked” sites (Yes I AM addicted, LOL)
There is so much more in a spanking scene than just beating a bottom.
Hard, harder, hardest seems to be on the wish list of many, but to me PB gives me a lot of content that I like.
Fun, pleasure, PLAY, sometimes serious spanking, red bums… It really is TOP what PB offers.
Luckily it is not REAL as the whole crew would end up in prison when it was.
PB manages to give us an answer to our dreams and fantasies and I am very grateful for that.
My only wish would be more changes of scenario (but I know how difficult that is).
On the list from F to A, PB scores a full A to me. And I thank you all for giving us so many hours of pleasure.
BIG Hugs and kisses for Pixie.

You and David and the P.B. Staff do a good job with stories that match real life that is what I like and you are Right teens do not get spanked much today and you will never spank a empolyee that would not end well. and if you think back if you got spanked as a kid and teen it was over faster then you could say Take One. I know when I was a kid and I got spanked it was 10 licks and it was over. so I love what you write here and keep up the good work!
July 31st, 2009 - 6:31 pm
I am so glad that the search for reality is not psrt of the whole scene: for me spanking videos are an escape from reality – as someone said earlier – “suspension of disbelief”. It is like watching a murder mystery (like the Midsommer mysteried mentioned in another comment – if tese wree treated as real there wuld be noone left living in Midsomer) orf reading a thriller/murder/spy story and the like). I do however find it irritating when an obviously 30+ model dresses in schoolgirl uniform – or when adult schoolgirls forget the role play and wear wedding rings, high heels, highly varnished nails and the like.
If there were a moment when I thought things were for real I would sqitch off at once: and yes – when CP was practised in schools, certainl here in the UK, it was swift (maximum usually 6 of the best with a cane), brutal (I have known a boy having to have medical treatment afterwards) and sadistic. It certainly would not fit in with the spanking scene today, nor woujld it make for good theatre.
So keep up the good work of PB and its roleplayL but please do not get seriously real – and please do not give simulations of spanking children – that is unedifying in the extreme.
July 31st, 2009 - 9:37 pm
For me , I need a belief in why I’m spanking a girl. I’ve spanked at parties in the US & UK. Without a reason to spank it loses its charm. I will assure you, the role play enhances that spankings we do. The spankngs are very real.
David
July 31st, 2009 - 9:58 pm
I think PB has the right amount of reality and fun…with a glossy edge
As far as the “not real” comments, I think that’s code speech, for not “hard enough”, not “leaving enough marks”, and not “inflicting enough pain”. I don’t want to see someone beat, nor do I want to see bloody marks, or anything that appears to be truly hurting the spankee. That’s not fun, and it depresses me, rather than entertains me…..
July 31st, 2009 - 11:46 pm
What I like about you, your pictures, your previews and some of the videos is the fun you all seem to have even when the spankings hurt. For me, though, it’s the intent of the video that’s most important — I’m into spankings that are fun, play, sensual and erotic — I use the words stinging pleasure. In that context I can give a spanking that lasts for a half hour or more and is both stingy and pleasant. I do like some of the role play. I like at least one and preferably both participants are having fun. I don’t like cruelty, real punishment, marks, shrieks and lasting hurt. So, I don’t know about realism but I am looking for videos that reflect my orientation
August 1st, 2009 - 2:03 am
“Realism” is overrated. I fell in love with spanking clips and websites because as you know, Pixie, I was going through a bad time in my life. THe websites and videos gave me someone else to feel sorry for. I don’t need that so much now, but I still enjoy the scenes. They may not be realistic in some people’s experienc, but then getting punched in the knee so many times you couldn’t walk straight fo a few days isn’t realistic in some people’s experience, right? It’s happened, trus me. Personal experience and all that. And it nearly caused a car accident, because the driver was too busy whacking me to pay attention to the road. Doesn’t that suck?
August 1st, 2009 - 3:16 am
I feel that if a spanking was really non-consensual, it would be abuse, so for me the whole context has to be one of erotic fantasy–even if it does radiate playfully into everyday life. Ladies getting spanked “against their will” in the context of a movie, or in play between friends and lovers, is ALWAYS pretend, really. But half- pretending it is real is what makes it come alive in my mind, so I guess there’s that, as well.
August 1st, 2009 - 6:38 am
pixie great to have lovely Amanda Rose again in a p. b. vid .such a naughty little spankee who deserves her spanks in this storyline ,love and spanks from tim xxxx
August 1st, 2009 - 9:36 am
Pixie,
Someday someone will make a spanking video with two alien girls from another planet and it will probably include such non-conventional scenes like, er say LIGHTNING BOLTS shooting out of their butts….. (oh wait … you mean it’s already been done) LOL
There are SO many aspects that make up a desirable spanking video and they all seem to depend on individual tastes. Obviously, each of us have our own preferences and hence the statememt, “You can’t please everyone.” I have my own preferences (obviously..lol) and I like the spanking to follow the story line and for the spankee to react to the discomfort (pain) in a realistic maner. I also like a little intensity in the spanking but a CONTROLLED not out of hand intensity. In the end (of the movie…lol) I like the spankee to feel that what she got was deserved or at least justified in the spankers eyes.
There is also a certain LOOK that a particular actress/spankee (I won’t mention any names) might have that might remind me of someone I knew in the past which gives the film a personal connection. Some might even remind me of myself and THAT is a very strong personal connection.
Through the vast collections of generous friends I have viewed quite a few spanking movies from different producers and I can attest that there is almost anything someone might be looking for out there. Even alien brats from another planet have interest to me. LOL. But, just about EVERY collection I’ve seen have some, if not numerous, PB films. You do a great job!!!
We might have individual differences … but we’re all wired the same. Another great topic, Pixie.
Linde
August 1st, 2009 - 12:17 pm
Oh, and as far as me and “realism” I would love to see some more diversity in races, age ranges, etc, in spanking…
August 1st, 2009 - 12:20 pm
Hi Pixie
Punished Brats to me is very well done, and shows what could
happen to naughty girls. You and the rest of the cast and crew
give us all something that we want and fantasize about,it would
be so much fun to turn a naughty girl over ones knee and spank
her butt.
Take care
Love AK
August 1st, 2009 - 2:37 pm
Awesome post, Pixie.
I would laugh SO hard if a scene like you described were ever released. . . . . it would be even funnier coming from say, Dallas. . . . . . 
The punishment does often outweight the crime, even in a true “disciplinary” setting. Spankings are far more severe than “real life” would call for, as a general rule. However, “in the scene”, that’s what is accepted.
August 1st, 2009 - 5:38 pm
Hi Pixie!
I feel your videos are plenty real enough, and do ebb and flow between easy spankings on some occasions and harder ones when the scene calls for it. In virtually all cases, Punished Brats seldom if ever crosses the line of abuse.
Spankings should have sufficient energy to be felt and to stimulate the senses of all concerned, but they should not degrade into beatings or leave undo marks on the spankee.
If a spanking were to be real for an adult participant, the intensity level would be too high, leading to possible injury to the spankee, which I do not approve of; it’s a complete turn off for me.
To improve realism in other ways, PB could structure its scenes so that the spankee faces two difficult alternatives: 1) be spanked for a transgression of some sort; 2) suffer untoward consequences other than spanking, such as exposure, suspension of rights or privileges, economic loss, denial of graduation, being barred from an important social event, and so forth. Of course the spanking will always be chosen as the lesser of the two evils. In that way the spanking would make more sense in the context of our currently politically-correct culture in which corporal punishment is seen as an abusive use of authority. Besides, who would ever submit to being spanked anyway unless there were an even worse consequence to ponder?
August 1st, 2009 - 10:50 pm
Obviously we like what PB offers (or we wouldn’t be paying for it) so we are a self selected group of fans. Obviously very few of the scenarios depict anything that happens in real life (as far as I know, anyway).
I like dealing with the stress of real life by watching you and your colleagues get humiliated a few times per week, but that’s just me.
I was thinking that a scenario that could get close to “real” would be a parody of one of those reality game show (like Survivor or Apprentice) where young ladies aren’t fired, but instead have to submit to having their pants pulled down and their bottoms spanked.
August 2nd, 2009 - 6:59 pm
Reality is a seven year-old stealing his father’s car, leading police on a chase, and only getting grounded for four days with no TV or video games (I’m sure that’s one punishment he’ll never forget [shudder]). Reality is a college professor threatening a freshman girl with a spanking if she doesn’t do well on the next exam then, when she does poorly, taking her over his knee and giving her six or seven smacks – resulting in his rapid termination and the end of his academic career. Reality tends to be very unsatisfying, and so we retreat into our own world of fantasy where the car thief in question is over 18 and her parents are now sooo over groundings and time-outs; where “pc” is the computer the professor took off his desk to make room for all the student miscreants needing to be bent across it.
We Spankos are a fortunate lot, being singularly blessed with the ability to perceive the multitudes of spanking possibilities constantly taking place around us every day. It’s almost as if we possess an extra sense which enables us to glimpse Spanking Wraiths flitting about like naughty elves, making mischief and setting up situations so that some unsuspecting bottom is put line to be spanked. Maybe it’s in the way a woman talks about her nearly grown daughter’s behavior (go on, you know what you’d *really* like to do about it, don’t you? mwahaha), or the not so innocent way the letters on a store’s marquee were rearranged (“My office, young lady, this instant!” uhhh ooohhh, wonder how that happened? heh heh heh). All we need do is turn on our innate receivers and we can tune into the fantasy track that the world comes with.
Reality is for Vanillas. When I watch a spanking video, I focus on the scenario and its execution, not whether it’s realistic. A simple idea can work quite nicely especially in short scenes, as long as it’s interesting and engaging – as is the interplay between the spanker and spankee(s). As for justification, I’m no expert but I should think that a good scenario would tend to provide for the spanking option to seem reasonable if not preferable.
August 3rd, 2009 - 2:50 am
Dear Pixie,
I’m probably just going to echo what has already been said, but I don’t look for “reality” in the shows I watch on TV (I absolutely loathe the majority of the “reality tv” programs out there), and I certainly don’t look for it in the fantasyland that is SpankoWorld. Reality and logic go on a holiday when it comes to spanking scenarios. I like the PB blend of storyline–spankings that usually have a light air of humor about them.
With that in mind, I go back to the previous post and comments I made–there may not be that many “logical” scenarios for the recipient to receive a spanking in the nude, but then, why do we have to be realistic or logical about it?
A mother waits, hairbrush in hand, for her daughter to get out of the shower. A husband, after seeing the latest credit card bill, storms upstairs to “discuss” things with his wife just as she’s changing clothes. As long as you have ladies at the shoot who are willing to do it, I’m sure that the PB crew is sharp enough to work it into a scenario now and then for the sake of variety.
Dr. Ken
August 3rd, 2009 - 4:22 am
I think the only way to make the spanking of an adult female realistic would be to place the scenario in a decade prior to the 1960′s.
Anyone interested in a video shot in black and white for even more realism?
August 3rd, 2009 - 11:55 am
To Me i alway assume it is real and girl really is getting a spanking for it but same time i know it not real and she didn’t really do what she did same as when a guy getting spanked by a female. bototm line is when watching the video i know person aka actor actress in video in reality never did anything wrong.
i mean why do osmething if u know u going get spanked for it. in real world half time people don’t know they going get spanked if caught smoking stole few cigarette. crash car did not turn in homework or fail exam or cheated in school. these thing are part of script casue these are real things in some some video and reason for spanking. but those actress already knew what going happen
in real world people did not know what there punishment will or going to be. i am sure some people at job would maybe much rather take a spanking from the boss or superivsor instead of getting fired and loosing their job, i mean after all if got spanked by boss mean they still have their jobs. the pain of being spanked would go away but pain of loosing job won’t and they do have to learn lesson some how if u screw up on job.
so bottom line is it can be real for me in my mind casue i know it real stuff but only acting and pretended. in video
August 3rd, 2009 - 6:42 pm
During the first minute or so of one of the infamous PB spankings I’m usually pretty jealous, but by the time the number of swats moves into triple digit territory I’m usually very grateful that I’m NOT the guest-of-honor. LOL
I loved Mike’s comment:”We Spankos are a fortunate lot, being singularly blessed with the ability to perceive the multitudes of spanking possibilities constantly taking place around us every day. It’s almost as if we possess an extra sense which enables us to glimpse Spanking Wraiths flitting about like naughty elves, making mischief and setting up situations”. What a lovely way to put it. (But now I’m thinking of Carol Kane’s fairy in ‘Scrooged’: “Oh, you like the rough stuff!”) LOL
August 3rd, 2009 - 7:42 pm
Fantastic post, wonderfully articulated on a complex topic–no easy task.
Have never really thought too much about this issue of “realism” in vids, and what it all means and such, but it is wonderful food for thought.
Yes it is really, you know, kind of a fantasy world we create with the pen when writing erotica, the video camera in creating otk scenes, and such.
Same thing holds true for mainstream adult film–much/most of it is *not* a reflection of what occurs typically in the real-world.
We go to that fantasy land to escape the daily grind, our 9-5 jobs, etc…..
On a side note, PIXIE ROCKS!

August 3rd, 2009 - 9:19 pm
Lee – I too generally prefer photos over video, but I do like to know the reason why the girl is getting spanked. It doesn’t always have to be 100% logical, but some semblance of a story line is nice.
Crystal – Thanks.
Kim – Many of our scenes are based on real life events, though they aren’t necessarily incidents that happened with the actors in the scene. With Serious Mom, Veronica was indeed ticked off at Jessica — not just as far as characters, but in real life. With Manipulation, David and Sarah had a little real life issue to take care of.
For example, the school paddling scene we just shot with Lily Anna was an idea based on two real life events for her. She was caught smoking on campus and sentenced to full day Saturday detention. She actually inspired the scene by mentioning these events to us the first time she was on set. Of course in real life she had to endure the horribly boring detention and didn’t have an option of getting paddled and here principal was obviously not David Pierson. But the reasons for her punishment were quite real and I think they may have struck an emotional nerve for her as she cried a lot in this scene. So in this case, the scene was inspired by real life, but not a reenactment of an actual event.
I too have done scenes where I have been guilty of the offense I’m being spanked for such as texting while driving and one I plan to do in an upcoming shoot where I am punished for a sorority prank that went too far.
Other times scene ideas are based on members’ submissions of real life incidents of their own such as “The Belt” where I was strapped for multiple driving offenses and the recently filmed, not yet released “Mailbox Baseball” with Charlie Skye.
There are many other scenes that are created based on incidents we witness or accounts we hear from others. Sometimes real life is stranger than fiction as some of the things I and others have witnessed and made into scenes probably don’t seem real but are. Would you believe that Juliet in Mom’s Manual was a recreation of a real life incident?
I’m rambling, so I’ll cut this short and move on to your other questions, but feel free to email me if you want to chat more about what scenes are based on real events. I can give you a run down.
No matter whether the spanking is for a real life offense or not, we always allow a safe word. Safety has to come first even in true discipline. We certainly encourage our girls to bring in ideas and incidents where they feel they might deserve a good spanking. What changes most is the girl is more in touch with the offense and feel it on a deeper emotional level as opposed to when playing a character who did something that may or may not be relatable to them.
Nikolai – Yes, I’d agree with you that the Weeds spanking is very realistic and quite well done especially considering it is a mainstream media production. But as you noted, it was very quick. All of 10 seconds! Excellent fast spanking, but I think it would raise a stink if any spanking company began posting 10 second scenes. But when it’s a little unexpected (but very welcome!!) surprise in a vanilla show or movie, it’s oh so exciting.
I was chatting with Richard Windsor the other day about the grounded brat scene and I said it might be funny to have an alternate ending. A sort of choose your own adventure type scene. Does the brat get grounded? Click clip 1. Does she get spanked? Click clip 2.
Schwarz – Absolutely. We need dreams, hobbies, entertainment, and other pleasures in life to get away from it all once in a while.
Dana – Recently, I personally have been moving away from absolute fantasy and more towards plausible but not necessarily likely to occur in real life scenes. As I mentioned in the post, the world is not filled with spanking occurrences … if it were, we probably wouldn’t have reason to seek it out in various entertainment media forms. I like the chance to see that snotty cheerleader, bad student, nasty waitress, poor employee, or other irresponsible, disrespectful, ill behaved person get what they really deserve!
Redchief – They might well be unhappy at the movies too. We all have opinions on how things should be done and I have to admit I’ve seen some movies that I think are real clunkers and yet I’m sure the producers and directors were pleased with their own vision. Perhaps those that feel spanking scenes are not real enough are simply displeased that they are lacking whatever detail it is that pushes their buttons.
Tim – Yes, I think PB and most other spanking sites offer a bit of a fantasy world. A pleasant escape! I’ve never seen the show you mentioned. But that may be in part because my TV watching is fairly limited.
karaJ – The Pixie’s Previews clips are a bit different than the scenes themselves. We like to show a bit of the on set fun we have and some of our behind the scenes antics. I often look forward to seeing the preview clip even more than watching the completed scenes where everyone stays in character! I’m glad you like them too.
Ray – I still clearly remember a teacher in my high school trying to break up a fight that broke out in the hallway. As he tried to separate the two boys, they stopped fighting each other and attacked the teacher, damaging his knee. He was out for the rest of the year and I think his days as an avid cyclist were probably over. I think they may have gotten a couple days of suspension, but that was all. Sad. I don’t know what the right answer would have been as far as discipline … or better yet, prevention. I don’t necessarily believe that school CP would have done anything to improve the situation, but I am still bothered by I what I saw that day and that there was little done about it.
Dani – I agree with you. Escape the stress and doldrums of the real world for a while and step into another realm of whatever level of fantasy you desire!
Ddon – Thanks. I think you described it accurately that it is punched up reality, not absolute reality.
Harry – I like to think that our scenes as well as most others in the spanking industry (or even amateur home vids) are portrayals of what we might like to see happen in real life, but probably won’t actually ever come to be.
Todd – Right. There’s reality and then there’s spanko-ality. In the spanking world it is perfectly reasonable and expected to get spanked for any and every misdeed! What a fun world to be a part of.
Pygmalion – Well put.
I too strongly encourage others to do what makes them (and other consenting partners) happy.
Funbun – I think we offer a decent variety as far as intensity. It is not our aim though to be the hardest on the block and leave the girls with eggplant bottoms, but there are always at least glowing red bottoms and often some bruising by the end of 4 scenes and always quite a bit of soreness regardless of what the scene set ups might be. It is indeed a fantasy world as you’re correct that we’d all be in prison by now if this weren’t consensual or if these sorts of acts were carried out in real life by bosses, parents, teachers, coaches, etc. As for the scene setting, yes as you know it is more difficult to orchestrate for private reasons. David has talked about the possibility of using another setting that would be within reason, but it hasn’t come to be yet. Feel free to drop him a line though about it.
Jack – Yes, my own childhood spankings and those that I’ve witnessed others get were very quick (but devastating!) affairs.
Winchester – I’m with you about the model needing to look/act the part. There are lots of misdeeds and roles to take on so that a spanker and spankee can feel closely related to the character the portray.
David – Right, the spankings are real, the role play may or may not be based on real life, but it’s all good. Some people though, just can never be pleased, but I’m not about to fuss about them. It would be an act of futility.
Justme – I think the issue of intensity, marks, and hard enough is a whole other can of worms. The comments that I’ve read about the spanking industry as a whole were that the scenes were too contrived, repetitive, stupid, and not at all approximate to a true punishment scenario. Charming, eh? But as for those that don’t feel it’s real unless there are bloody marks? That’s kind of scary especially if done in the context of a non-consensual “real” incident.
CurtisG – We have a good time in filming and we like to show that. If it was an absolutely horrible affair, I don’t think we’d want to continue or have anyone back in to work with us a second time! It’s nice to be able to share some of the behind the scenes fun with our viewers. However, I can certainly attest to the spankings themselves not always being so fun. There are times when I’m pushed to my limits and can’t wait for the spanking to be over – when I’m sweating, my face may be nearly as red as my bottom, I’m overwhelmed by the pain, and I may even feel a little bit queasy. Not exactly an attractive moment and not pleasurable at all in the moment, but it’s sure real. Other scenes are not to that extreme, but they are certainly quite real as well.
Terri – Oh Terri, I’m so sorry to hear what was once your reality. I hope you are far, far away from that sort of thing now.
Lorraine – You’re right. Spankings that are shown in movies should be consensual even if the set up is that they are not. I’m not a fan of when the spankee practically dives over the spanker’s lap when it’s supposed to be something that isn’t wanted, but even in the best scenarios, we all know in the back of our minds that the girl is consenting. And to be honest, if it truly appears she is doing something against her will, it isn’t enjoyable.
Linde – I had sooo much fun doing Space Girls. I think that was super creative and it was so much fun to film outdoors. But that’s what I mean, it’s entertainment, not necessarily real life … or is it. When you see a bright light in the night sky, perhaps it’s a glowing bottom traveling back to her home planet!
Justme – I agree. A little more variety would be greatly appreciated.
AK – Right. We try to portray what might possibly happen in a fantasy spanko world!
Keagen – Very true. I think only in a consensual spanking relationship or in a fantasy scene would a person get a dose of the prison strap for smoking a cigarette for example. I doubt they use that technique much at smoking cessation groups even if it might be effective!
Annapurna – “To improve realism in other ways, PB could structure its scenes so that the spankee faces two difficult alternatives: 1) be spanked for a transgression of some sort; 2) suffer untoward consequences other than spanking, such as exposure, suspension of rights or privileges, economic loss, denial of graduation, being barred from an important social event, and so forth.”
That is exactly what we’ve done in numerous scenes. So much so that I actually have asked to not do it so much because it was becoming cliché.
Mo – When writing about this topic, I didn’t necessarily mean just PB as the comments that I’ve read were not specifically addressing our company, they were about the current industry as a whole.
I think your scene idea would be fun to do, though I think it would be along the same lines of realism as most other scenes. But then again I think Survivor and Apprentice may be about as real too!
^Mike – Yeah, reality is for the birds … errr the vanillas. It’s way more fun on this side.
Dr. Ken – Those are a couple of good ideas for how to work in a nude scene without it becoming a forced stripping for a completely unrelated reason. Have to keep them in mind …
Tony – Very true about the time period. Lots of cultural shifts since then.
Mikep38 – There are some occasions where the line between reality and fantasy blur a bit and spankings are given for very real reasons, but certainly not every time, and certainly not without consent.
Isolde – Oh but our guests are always “glowing” about their experience by the end of the day.
Dave – Thank you! I’d imagine that you’re very right that mainstream adult films probably don’t reflect everyday life nor do many vanilla films, but that’s ok once in a while. We certainly all need a little escape, a guaranteed happiness in fictional entertainment.

This is a simple matter with a very simple solution:
1. Expel both students immediately and blacklist them from attending any secondary public school within the state.
2. Arrest both students, charge them with aggravated battery (a felony), and then try both of them as adults in superior court, not juvenile court.
3. File a multi-million-dollar civil lawsuit against both students and their parents, using the financial backing of the school district.
4. Let the entire student body know that if any teacher is attached for any reason the perpetrator(s) will be expelled immediately, blacklisted statewide, arrested, prosecuted as an adult, and sued in civil court along with their parents.
Only a no-tolerance policy like this one will stop school violence against faculty; anything else simply encourages it.

I love the little storylines and role plays in PB videos, they help set the mood for enjoying a good spanking. The lead-in usually doesn’t go on too long and the action gets going pretty quick. They’re perfect!
I have an idea for a new video for PB. It would be quite different, but I know I’d love to see how the experiment turns out. Here it is: a video of a spanking party! For those of us who will never have the opportunity to go to a real one, this would be a glimpse into that wesome world. Get together a small cast, create a “dungeon” with a couple rooms and toys, and then set up cameras in the corners and let people “play”. Don’t script it too much, maybe even not at all. Just let the cameras run for a couple hours. Serve drinks, play music in the background. Maybe the camera crew could walk around and catch some spanking action here and there. “Before and after” interviews, eavesdropping on conversations, etc. Wouldn’t that be fun?

Dear Pixie,
Feel free to use either of those ideas for a future PB scene. Unlike real life, I won’t demand an on-screen credit….

Pixie very interesting post and your friends including myself have replied to you as usual because you take such an interest in our views and this is why you are so loved by everyone i know in u our community ,yes the scenearios could be more varied sometimes but it must be difficult to create new ones as p.b. film so many perhaps a university setting ,tennis girls rivalry etc i might suggest more another time if you like /////////?love and spanks from tim xxxx

I am, indeed, a long way from what used to be my reality. I kind of wish I had someone to spank me though, sometimes. I just failed a major exam and therefore a whole subject a Uni. Isn’t that a spankable offence? I once got caught shoplifting. Well, actually, chewing chocolate bars in the shop while hiding it by reading a book. All that happened was they ended up making me pay for the bars. Having said that, I didn’t go back to that shop for six months. THe ifrst time I went back,, it felt like everyone was staing at me, following me all the time. It was so creepy. I wished they couldn’tve just spanked me and had it over with. Hell, there’s so many things like that happen in real life. Isn’t it scary.
August 6th, 2009 - 9:21 am
Dear Pixie,
Thank you for another fascinating post. You and the staff at PB are very talented and I greatly appreciate the work you do.
I love spanking so much because it isn’t reality and yet it fulfils an emotional need within me. Being an amateur actor I love music and colour and show and role play; so when a naughty brat gets her comeuppance this is just the sort of escapism I need. Very often I feel I should be the brat being punished. This is my emotional need it’s the “lo self esteem” scenario OK boring for everyone, but it would raise my self esteem to be tanned.
In real life of course: students get detention, employees get fired and this has so nearly happened to me; all I want is a spanking, so it’s careful to keep reality and fantasy apart.
I just saw an episode of the Simpsons over here in the UK where Bart accidentally moons the stars and stripes! Given how patriotic the States is, I dread to think of what would happen to a brat at PB should a similar “accident” happen!

Kidnap Britney Spears, take her to some rural house out in the woods, then strip her naked, bend her over, and give her twenty hard swats with a wooden paddle. Film it all, and post it online. It would set all records within minutes.
October 20th, 2009 - 9:59 pm
I’m sick of spanking porn, and I’m sick of seeing all the same old movies featuring spanking over and over. I want to see the real thing. I think someone should start a web site which shows real fathers giving real spankings to their college-age daughters; and real husbands giving real spankings to their wives. It would be an immediate success.
October 21st, 2009 - 7:31 am
stonecastle7 – don’t just sit there, get to it then! Set that record … and your police record … in minutes.
October 21st, 2009 - 10:59 am
Get to it Stonecastle, I’m sure there are a ton of Father’s out there willing to spank their daughter’s for punishment for the viewing public to watch. There’s going to have to be a lot of them because let’s be honest, it can only happen once before social services take the “Daughter” away from that environment, and the police arrest the Father for non consensual assault!!
October 24th, 2009 - 3:13 am
Sooooo, what about the Britney thing? You gotta admit, whoever could pull that off–without getting arrested–would make a fortune, and satisfy all of us at the same time.
Just tossing around thoughts people; that’s all. Anybody know of any women they’d like to watch get a real spanking? Come on, go along with me here–how about Paris Hilton, or maybe Jennifer Lopez? Kidnapped, taken somewhere, spanked throughly, then released. Post the video, make a lot of people happy. I’m sure some of you guys out there would love to watch your ex-wives get a real tanning. Don’t lie, now.

[...] I am not aware of it being required by law to show within the context of a scene that a spanking is consensual (within reason of course and also making sure to have all legally binding documents stating consent and legal age on file). I think a big problem with forcibly yanking someone over the knee is more of it just not always being an easy physical match. We have done more scenes recently in which the girl is not admitting to the need for punishment and agreeing to get into position and instead it’s a grab-and-spank scenario. I think many times the “or we’ll call your father” or “you can choose awful alternative ___” come into play is because we would try to come up with a semi-reasonable explanation for why or how a spanking could possibly take place outside of a consenting adult relationship. This goes back to a post I did a while back on realism. Here is a link to that entry if you’d like to check it out. Realism [...]
