On my latest trawl through the internet I have been delighted to find some art and posed victorian type scenarios.
Personally I find these quite exciting if anything just getting to someone's bottom was an event in itself with petticoats hoops slips pantaloons and voluminous knickers the errant lad or lady must have been quivering with anticipation at the thought of being bared and beaten by Lord or lady Muck.
Does anyone else like these type of thing.
Dreams of Spanking did a few films in a similar way if you can still find them?

Yes - I think they can be exciting partly because by our standards they are slightly naïve to say the least.

I have seen one late-19C photo of a nude woman standing 3/4 rear to us, in which the bottom cleavage had been carefully erased! She might have been wearing some form of body-stocking, but it didn't look it. I've also found some Victorian or Edwardian, F/F, whipping scenes with a BDSM rather than "punishment" theme, and some are frankly bizarre, with very unlikely poses. A few are spoiled by the spanker looking at the camera.

The Victorians appeared to like the birch, for that features in some domestic chastising set-ups, of greater or less likely realism.

It wasn't long after the development of reliable photography that the porn trade latched on to this new-fangled medium. I understand their descendants similarly latched onto the new-fangled Internet. I am told.

I didn't know about 'Dreams of Spanking', but I have wondered if some of the photos I've seen were genuinely old or are in old-style. If you like straightforward nudes which don't have any inherent spanking themes but which set the febrile imagination going, these vintage shots are an intriguing field. They rarely show the genitals so the back is to the fore in most, though of the late-19 / early-20C photographers Wilhelm von Pluschow and Vicenzo Galdi produced many male-nude (and some Females) studies of which, unusually, a number are fully-frontal among the shapely bottoms and classical-style draped forms of the young Sicilian men who posed for them.

I find most modern, explicit porn unattractive, even off-putting; I prefer naturist and boudoir styles; but I do like these antique studies, whether photo or painting, whether CP-related or not.

Hi titanites
Some of the authentic reenactmentso are fun but originals are charming.
