Watching boys being caned in front of class – who else liked it?

Although it was a long time ago I still recall the experience I got from watching a boy have to go up in front of the class and bend over. In our private school it was common for boys being punished in front of the whole class. Girls were rarely caned, and if they were it was on the palms of their hands not their bottoms. Honestly, I did enjoy it when boys I fancied got the cane. I loved the whole ritual of having to come out in front of the class and bend over. Mostly the pants were tightened by pulling the belt loop. Then the boys got their six of the best virtually next to me since i was sitting in the first row. I can still remember the way the cane swished through the air before it made connection with his buttom with a very satisfying thwack.

It was pretty interesting to see, that most boys afterward had to pretend that it didn’t hurt too much!! But you knew exactly that it hurt them like hell.

I saw many classroom punishments during my 1950s/60s schooldays. Primary school was mixed, I saw a few girls have the backs of their legs slapped in the infants (5 – 7) section. The junior section had both male and female teachers and classroom discipline varied but as I remember it was only used on boys in front of others. I knew of a few girls being sent to the senior female teacher who I believe slapped the backs of their legs. Boys there were punished in class. The method varied teacher to teacher, hand, rulers, a small wooden tee square and in the final year there (10 -11) a short swishy little cane across the hands. None of this was ever seen as unusual or wrong. The whole class would watch.

Then I went to senior school, a boys grammar school. Some teachers, not all, caned or slippered boys in class. It was usually two or three whacks across your trousers. Some boys took their whacks without murmur, others squealed. The more ‘naughty’ lads were sometimes hit harder. I think the ones who took it without any fuss were those who bent over at home to be spanked. It stung but wasn’t usually that terrible. For more serious bad behaviour you could be sent to the headmaster or deputy head. There you might occasionally be let off with a firm warning or a detention but it was usually the cane, anything from two strokes to a proper ‘six of the best’. Seeing or knowing of someone getting whacked was always of great interest. We never really felt sorry for them as it was generally well deserved and of course we knew that if we misbehaved we might get the same.

It has to be remembered that around that time the great majority of parents used spanking on their sons and daughters at home. This varied greatly from nothing to, in a few households, a cane. Slippers, hairbrushes and wooden spoons, all domestic items rather than purpose made spanking implements were often used.

Hello Carolin, I have described in previous posts how the girl who sat at the desk in front of me at school  took great delight in teasing me endlessly about the fact that I had been spanked by the Headmaster in front of the whole class. Two other females who witnessed my punishment have however, also been featured on this forum but in unrelated threads. I imagine that the fact that their names have come up on this forum means that they also have an interest in corporal punishment that presumably goes back to their schooldays. So I think it likely that like you, they enjoyed seeing their male classmate spanked.

It was much more fun to watch the girls being caned
As they got away with a lot more so it was a rarity & special.

No Few finer sights 

Normally, hands were strapped in front of the class but on one occasion a relieving teacher with a norther English accent applied the strap to a couple of boys’ clothed buttocks to the gratification of all but the two involved. It was clearly an effective punishment. The boys were unable to fain nonchalance.

I witnessed numerous slipperings and canings at the front of class it was a regular occourance at my school,the only thing i liked about it was that it was,nt me bending over in front of the class, i did of course receive quite a few whackings my self as did every boy in my class. Think the only ones who enjoyed the punishments were the girls who were exempt from corporal punishment but took great delight in their male classmates discomfort,i remember walking back to my desk after a very painful 6 stroke slippering to see a front row of smiling girls,i wish they could experience the agony of that

Oh yes, I know the situation you just described. Teenage boys walking back to their desks, trying to pretend that it wasn’t too painful. Most girls in our class enjoyed these moments. But why did you boys always try to suppress the pain and sometimes the tears?

Everyone knew that it was very very painful. I remember one 15 year old boy in our class, he got six cane strokes accross his tight pants. He swollowed all the pain and returned back to his desk facing the floor. Sitting down on his chair was obviously very uncomfortable for him but he insisted, that it did not hurt.

Hello again Carolin, the fact is that being spanked or caned in front of your classmates especially the girls was very humiliating. I think that by putting on a brave face the boys were simply trying to hide their embarrassment. Speaking from experience I can confirm that when a boy made his way back to his desk after being punished in front of the class, his face was often as red as his bum.

Hi carolin

The boy who said it did not hurt was lying,any stroke of the cane is painful i,ve received 1,3,and 6 strokes of the cane when i was at school and believe me 6 is agony it brought me to tears and i howled from the second stroke onwards.Luckily that day i was caned in private ,but i did receive a memorable 3 stroke caning which was witnessed by my girlfriend and a female teacher i did manage to hold back the tears just but i howled after every stroke.
I was slippered on numerous occasions in front of the class and i admit i did try to keep the vocals down ,did,nt manage it all the time especially when receiving 6,but what was embarrassing was bending over touching toes or bending over the stool as one master used to position us, in front of the girls

Hi sc545474,

yeah, I mean the 15 year old boy I was talking about was for sure howling and whining, but he tried to hold it back as good as he could. When he was sitting you still heard a silent sobbing for a long time. I meant that boys tried to be strong in general in front of the class especially the girls.

But I have to say that most boys didn’t manage to keep the vocals down when the cane swished trough the air. After six strokes almost every boy was whining but still tried to swollow the pain.

Hi Carolin

Did you not feel any sympathy towards the boy or boys being punished?
Were girls subject to C.P at your school ?
Would you have felt embarrassed if you were to be punished in front of the class ?

Hi sc545474,

sure, I did feel sorry for the boys being punished. Belive me I felt really sorry for them. But I must admit that I found it somehow exciting when a boy had to feel the cane in front of the whole class. Especially the boys reactions.

I went to a private school where girls where not exempt from C.P. in general. But C.P. for girls was limited to cane strokes on the bare hand. Therefore a much thinner, shorter and lighter cane was used as for the boys behinds. However, C.P. was very rarely used on girls and if so, just one or maybe two cane strokes were applied with light to medium force. Mostly girls got detention for disciplinary reasons. I remember lots of girls never got C.P. during the whole time at school. In contrast, a whacking of a boys behind was nothing unusual and happened pretty often. And when a boy got his backside spanked with a cane, teachers used significantly more effort with a much more painful cane. Most teachers (male and female) made clear at the beginning of each term that for the case of serious misbehaviour they don’t hesitate to apply six of the best. This was kind of an unwritten rule at our private school that was famous for strict discipline especially of boys.

Sure I would have felt embarrassed if i got punished in front of the class. Luckily it did never happen.

Hi Carolin

Did the boys at your school ever receive the plimsoll,it made a much louder noise when connecting with tightly stretched trousers,i was slippered both at school and home so ihave painful memories of this implement of pain

Yes, sometimes slipperings happend. And yes, it makes much more noise. But mostly our teachers used the cane.

My first boyfriend attended the same school but one class above. He also got both slipperings and canings at school. His class teacher mostly slippered the boys and sometimse he brought out the cane. He found the slipper also painful, but the pain as well as the marks faded soon after it was over. A caning left long lasting marks on his bum with serious pain while sitting for two or three days after.

Another true story from our school. My boyfriend had a young latin teacher (she was at their late twenties) and she was new at the school. She administered a caning he never forgot. He told me that this was the worst and most painful caning he had ever recieved. He was already 17 years old and she made him howling, squirming and dancing around in the class room after the six strokes. He told it was worse than the canings of any male teacher at school. Even the ones famous for administering harsh thrashings. Maybe her intention was to get respected from juveniles since she was really young. Because over the time you heard more boys talking about her proper canings.

I can’t help thinking that the young Latin teacher had never experienced a full strength caning and did not realise just how painful it can be.  You have to be a very insensitive person to inflict pain in such an indiscriminate manner, however much you want to make an impression.  It isn’t necessary or desirable in a classroom situation and would cause resentment rather than respect.

Hello carolin,

I know the situations you described. I also attended a school where corporal punishment was used for disciplinary reasons. We got both slipperings and canings in front of the class. Boys got the punishments usually on the behind while girls where punished with a small and light cane or a ruler on their hands. But sometimes we boys where sent to the headmasters office to receive our six of the best.

Many girls liked their male classmates discomfort when they got whopped in front of the whole class. Belive me, bending over a chair in front of the class and receiving the cane on the butt is pure agony. Not only is it very painful but also particularly shameful knowing your classmates especially femalse are watching you being punished. One tried to keep the vocals down, but a caning made every lad weepy. But the way back on your desk was even wors. You tried to face just the floor or the wall. Especially the girls often smilled at you after you got your butt caned.

And I also can confirm, that most female teachers caned harder.

Hello again Carolin,

You appear to have started a lively debate. I trust that you will remain a regular contributor here and I’m sure that your submissions will always be welcome.

I knew from a very early age that spanking was something special in my life.  Until the advent of the Internet however, where I discovered that there were many people all over the world that shared that interest, I spent many years thinking that I was a one-in-a-million freak. The fact is that it was only long after I left school that I learnt that there was such a thing as a spanking fetish. It was on the one and only occasion that I saw a girl caned on the bottom (an event that has been proved beyond reasonable doubt on this forum and elsewhere to be fact and not fiction) that I began to realise that there was a sexual aspect to spanking. I just couldn’t stop thinking about what I’d seen and that night alone in my bed I did what teenage boys do when they are alone in bed.

So it’s possible and maybe even likely that you were not the only girl in the class to become excited at the sight of a boy presenting his firm young bottom for a caning.

On the subject of girls receiving corporal punishment at school, it would seem that, at least at the senior school in South East London that I attended, it was used far more frequently than I thought. I’ve read more than one firsthand account of girls being whacked on the bottom on a site dedicated to the reminiscences of former scholars. It seems however, that such punishments were only ever administered when no males were present and never spoken about afterwards.

For sure, I know quite a few girls who also enjoyed the moments where a boy was called by the teacher to bend over a chair and present his behind for a caning. Sometimes we discussed the reactions of different boys to their punishments after school. Everyone had his own way to handle the pain during the punishment and afterwards when sitting on the chair. Some boys tried to hide pain and humilation in front of the classmates, others walked back to their desks weeping and didn’t try to hide the tears. Also the howlings and whinings sounded quite different.

I also know from some girls from other schools, that they got some firm whippings with a cane on the backside, but never in front of others. In contrast, punishing a boy was obviously widely accepted and nothing uncommon.

carolin_b, did you girls talk about whether it was fair that boys were punished more and in front of the class?  Did the teachers have different canes and did you discuss which canes were the most painful?  Did the boys talk about their punishments with you?

JamesKing wrote:carolin_b, did you girls talk about whether it was fair that boys were punished more and in front of the class?  Did the teachers have different canes and did you discuss which canes were the most painful?  Did the boys talk about their punishments with you?

JamesKing, yes we did talk about the fairness and considered it kind of unfair. But at that time it was accepted and common practice that boys got thrashed far more often and especially in front of the whole class. But honestly, the boys were responsible for far more serious offences punished with the cane.

The teachers in our private school used the same type of cane maybe with slight differences in length and thickness. So I guess the canes where equally painful. But it was quite obvious that some teachers caned the boys harder than others did. This was subject to the discussions. A pretty young female Latin teacher (at her late twenties) in our school became famous for administering very painful canings. The boys at our school called her “Ms. Tearmaker” since even the oldest boys at school weeped and danced around after the caning. I’ve never seen a caning of her, just heard the stories of other girls in the class she lectured. And my first boyfriend got a caning of Ms. Tearmaker and I know his experience. But most boys got just one single caning of her and they behaved for the rest of the time at school in all her lessons.

But boys in general talked very rarley about thier punishments with us girls.

Indeed so.  And because you gave me such splendid encouragement with my recent literary efforts and because there undoubtedly are people who disbelieve that in living memory girls in England were caned on the bottom at school I am happy to link your two accounts of the incident here.  Their remarkable consistency with such a long gap certainly convinces me that this was one time when a girl was most definitely caned on the bottom!

The first, from 03 September 2003, less than 16 months after the Forum was founded.

The second, from 16 August 2018, less than 5 months ago.

Any readers clicking on the link that you draw to my attention at the start of the second item should not be confused by the surreal appearance of the gym knickers picture.  It was inverted a very long time ago by the Forum’s then Master of Images as part of a Forum in-joke.  I seem to recall that it was round about page #6 of my Rodney School thread.

I totally understand this and it’s really an interesting part of how effective CP may or may not have been. It certainly hurt.   But, like AL, the worst part for me was the humiliation due to people watching AND others knowing it happened.   That was the “worst” consequence.   I doubt I would have opted for bare butt swats if it could have been private, but, I imagine I would have signed up for a couple more licks if that would have meant it was just the two of us.   I did, however, avoid the “worst” thing when we were in school.  The hallway paddling would have been terrible, I think.   There usually was a witness.   But,the worst part had to have been all peers (in your class and in adjoining classes) hearing the spanking.   And, then, spankee having to return to class immediately.   Incredibly red face.   I don’t know how they did it, honestly.   After mine, I had to return to locker room to change out of the PE clothes.   So, I had some time to process it all and allow my behind to cool down a bit.   These hallways paddlings offered none of that…

Hello Sultanswat,

It is most interesting that we both had the same aversion to receiving SCP in front of others when at school.  It appears that we were were not more than averagely worried about being in receipt of SCP per se. but  found any element of punishment in public difficult to cope with.

I think that I was fairly typical with regard to my attitude to SCP in other respects when I was at school.  There were children who were concerned about SCP because it hurt, there were children who appeared to have a complete lack of concern about the painful effects, and there were all the degrees in between.  I was probably somewhere in the middle in that respect.  Most children, including me, were not at all averse to watching others being punished provided they weren’t in line for it themselves.  But I don’t think there were many others who, like me,  would have happily have taken a more severe punishment for the privilege of privacy.

I was in a single sex Secondary School so cannot comment on gender differences there, but in  Junior School (to age almost 12 in my case)  girls were possibly a little more embarrassed at being punished in front of the class than boys.  But I can’t think of any of my school contemporaries of either sex who were so worried  and concerned about public SCP that they went to great lengths to avoid SCP altogether.  That however was exactly what I did, because any SCP  might potentially be public SCP.

I’ve said that I was an extremely shy and withdrawn child and found dealing with other children difficult.  The example I quote of this is party invitations when very young.  Other children were distressed if they didn’t get them.  I was distressed if I did.  I didn’t want to go to parties and I knew that my parents would attempt to make me do so.  I am sure that my aversion to being in receipt of public SCP was somehow linked to my then personality.

But life changes you, the sharp corners get knocked off over time, and if I found myself back at school now, age and era regressed but current personality retained, I’d certainly still try to avoid SCP, but if I did get whacked in front of the class it would just be one of those  things that happen, and treated accordingly.

Where I was going with part of the above was wondering which part of SCP is the most effective modifier?   The spanking itself (pain and severity) or the submission, indignity and humiliation of getting it, and others knowing about/watching?   According to AL and me, it may be the procedure itself.    I have a group of friends, now.   They all grew up together in a town about an hour away.   Much more rural.  They paddled frequently there.  Boys/girls.  And, while that seems more harsh and in some ways it is, the normal procedure was 1 swat for first time, 2 for second time etc, up to their max of 5.   As a result, while this entire group was bent over for a paddle at least once during school, most only got it once.   And, just got the one swat.  They still remember it as something they did not want to repeat.  And, still remarked on how embarrassing.  Thus, the question.   For example, to take AL’s thought in the other direction, I am guessing I would have been almost as humiliated if I had only received one swat (instead of 3) as long as the procedure/witness was the same

Hi carolin
Yes it was more common for us boys to be punished more than girls thats the way it has always been,and boys did misbehave  more than girls. My school did not punish girls physically,but some tried to encourage boys into misbehaving just so they could watch their punishment being administered,by slipper,strap or cane,and the male teachers who administered the whackings really laid it on.
One more question carolin – Have you ever seen a boy punished over the knee,my father slippered me that way and my elder sister loved it

Hello sc545474
Yes, I saw one over the knee spanking. My younger male cousin got it over the knee from his daddy with a wooden spoon. Sure, I liked it too. But at that time, he was 12 and I 17.

I enjoyed the bend over the chair canings of boys in my age somehow more. Especially the howlings of the old boys sounded much more dramatic and seeing the face of a 17 year old lad with tears in the eyes was something special. Usually they didn’t cry and tried to be a tough man but six of the best with a cane in front of the class made them weepy and really really sorry. And as I know from my first boyfried, sitting down on a wodden chair was pure agony for the next two or three days. So you could see them shuffling around whenever they had to sit down. And yes, some teachers really laid it on. They threatened the boys with comments like “when you don’t behave, I get you a sore behind”. Normally this was enough to keep the boys in line at least those who had an appointment with the cane before. But sometimes the whipped out the cane and made the boys behave like angels for the next weeks.

carolin_b and sc545474

Many families used to punish in front of siblings, sometimes with one watching before being spanked themselves. I knew that my aunt walloped my girl cousins’ bottoms if they misbehaved. My own daughters were somewhat shocked when, at a big family get together meal, my wife’s cousin took his own son upstairs and spanked him.

Apparently the lad had been showing off during the meal. It seems that his dad, after warning him, asked the rest of the family to excuse them for a few minutes and took his son upstairs. The rest of the family heard the boy being properly spanked. Our daughters were there with their grandparents, my wife and I for some reason were not there. Their cousin then brought downstairs and made to sit and eat his meal. This was in the late 1970s!

Hello Sultanswat,

I failed to pick up on your contribution #25 above first time round.  You speculated about what part of SCP was the most effective behaviour modifier.  As you go on to say, that varies between individuals, which is also my opinion.

I used to say here that I thought if you got the preliminaries right there would be no need to actually hit anybody at all to achieve the object of SCP, which however you dress it up is simply to make a sufficient impression on the recipient to deter them from doing whatever it was again for a few weeks, months, or years, depending on how serious it was.

I still think this could be done, but sadly the effort involved for those dispensing punishment would be considerable because you’d have to have a lot of approaches to cater for individual recipients.  Far easier to give everybody the standard 5 swats or 4 strokes of the cane or whatever and hope it works for a reasonable proportion of them.

For instance with the juvenile Another_Lurker, if Miss B had simply made me stand in front of her class with all eyes on me for a bit, then gone through the bending over and leg baring routine that would probably have done the job.  The smacks were unpleasant, but what I really hated about the punishment was being helpless and humiliated and the unwilling entertainment for 50 or so other kids.  That was what changed how I behaved for the rest of my school career.

However a more confident and outgoing child with lots of friends in the watching class might well have thought nothing of being the centre of attention but found the slaps very unpleasant.  The trick with them might be to make them stand by themselves waiting for punishment through most of a play break.  By the time they were called in they would probably be so distressed at missing social time with their friends that the smacks wouldn’t be needed.

And so on for different people, but it’s the effort involved in that ‘and so on’ that means the scheme will never get off the ground!  

I guess where I was going with that was the concept of a 1 swat paddling(spanking).   It clearly did not hurt as much as one like mine (3 licks) or worse.   But, the humiliation seemed to be the same due to the Shame of others knowing and having to bend over, presenting the backside, for punishment.

Unless I’ve missed it one of our regular contributors is a little dilatory in their duties which means that aficionados of the topic of this thread may be missing out on some interesting evidence from Azerbaijan.

Hello A_L, I can only think that some kind of secret message is hidden in the above post. My efforts to try and decipher the code turned up the amazing fact that among female escorts in Baku, spanking is the 27th most popular service.

Hello Richard,

No hidden message I am afraid.  Why, for me post #31 above verges on plain text!

I was referring to the fact that the contributor who usually appraises us of updates to the excellent Corpun.Com has not yet done so despite the site having been updated on 8 January 2019.

Why comment on that in this thread?  Well one of the new items is a video clip showing boys being caned in front of the class in a school in Azerbaijan in 2012.  Girls are prominent in the front row of the class watching the event, and although I currently have no sound and so cannot verify this, the normally totally reliable Colin Farrell tells us that some of them can be heard making a noise during the proceedings and that suppressed giggles can be heard.

I would surmise from this that at least some of the girls were liking watching boys caned in front of the class and that the item was therefor highly relevant here and worthy of mention.

AL……..   i came to the same conclusion

I bet the girls dont receive punishment like that,same as what happened at my school only we had to bend over and touch our toes, with all the girls watching, even more embarrassing

Yes, this is similar how it happened in our classroom. The boy had to come out in front of the class. He had to bend over the back of a chair with his hands on the seat. Then the teacher caned the backside. The girls watched the boy being caned and the girls I know (including me) enjoyed the whole scene. Especially when they received their six of the best that made almost every boy howling. You could see how embarrassed they were when they went back to their desk, passing the smiling girls.

One teacher sometimes asked the boy after the caning if it was painful. Then you heard some girls quietly laughing.

I remember in one school in which I taught some girls would goad the boys into dropping their trousers to display the wheals left on their behinds.
