I’m quite confused about the use of the strap! Was the strap applied to the buttocks of the recipient or always the hand, is bottom strapping just a myth propagated by spanking/caning pornography?
Was it just the english strap that was used on the bottom? is that the difference between the Scottish tawse and English strapp or have I got the wrong end of the (strapp)?
And was the strap mostly used for boys or did girls receive it too, if so bottom or hand?
No one can find examples of strap used on posterior on Friends Reunited cp lists
Mrs Waters of Clifton, a Victorian private enterprise reformatory school mistress, considered the strap on the bare bottom to be more severe for girls than the birch. This one is a fact.
