Coasting on Bruise Control





When I first started out on this journey I was under the impression that my unique situation would prevent me from exploring a spanking that would result in anything beyond a red bottom. Email exchanges between potential play partners always stressed that my bottom was not to be marked. The first spanker claimed to be an expert spanker and guaranteed that I was not going to be marked in any way. Guess what? I came home with a bruise and was pisssssed. Looking back, I don't see how anyone could possibly know how a person marks, never having played with them. In contrast, after my first spank date with the Englishman, I brought up the possibility of getting caned during a certain time of the month when my bottom would undoubtedly be hidden behind the iron curtain of granny panties. It would be my monthly consolation prize... a caning for the sacrifical shedding of my uterine lining.



I've noticed that it takes more and more to mark my bottom. Many days I'm left with only minutes of heat from a red bottom, hours with the beautiful red stripes left by the cane and maybe a day with a stray bruise. I never would have guessed how attached I've become to my marks. Anyone looking over my shoulder would assume myself to be a narcissist, staring at pictures of my bottom. But it isn't my bottom that I'm admiring, but the lovely marks that once graced its surface.



Unfortunately, there have been some marks that haven't gone away. I'm not sure what to make of these new found freckles, but they certainly weren't there three months ago. I am a bit worried that they might be permanent, as they now appear as stains on an otherwise unblemished canvas that begs to be painted every week.



This is from a previous caning, but you can sort of see them in this picture:



One unexpected benefit to our extended break seems to have been a rediscovered ability to mark. I thought it would be an interesting study to see the progression of healing. Here are my fresh marks:



the next day:



the two days later:



Today, is almost six days after our last encounter and I'm left with a single bruise. This one has hung on much longer than expected, but it's not unwelcomed. I wonder if the Englishman will know that it is his mark when I see him next. I would hate to be unduly punished for presenting a bottom he assumes to be marked by another man. Who am I kidding? The punishment that would result from such a heinous misunderstanding makes me quiver in delight just thinking about it.

  1. I can't resist commenting if to say nothing else but that I think you have a gorgeous bottom.

    I love marks, bruising on any part of my body as a souvenier makes me so happy - but I've got a bit cowardly when it comes to pain so I haven't had anything done to me lately to them. *sigh*

    1. Welcome to the blog, Miss G! And thank you for the lovely compliment...you're very sweet to say so. I'm definitely shy about certain pain, but I'm always up to try anything once!

  2. I not so long ago had a spanking which reddened my cheeks quite a lot. ( Go figure lol) Went to bed, had a look next morning, and it was STILL as red as the night before. I freaked slightly, with thoughts of never being able to go swimming or sunbathing (not much chance of that where I live right enough!) etc etc......... thankfully it disappeared :)
    I'm sure your marks will go away too soon. Just to go do it all over again of course :)

    1. Hiya, Dee!

      I would LOVE to have my cheeks stained red! I'm wondering if it's my complexion that prevents it from reddening... I hardly ever burn in the sun!

  3. Those marks are gorgeous. You should be so proud. I love them too and they never last long enough.

    Being Spankee, I can't decode the freckles but there is a phenomenon known as Astral Mark Projection whereby the Spankers can send and imprint those dots merely by contemplating where they plan to strike next. Watch for pattern variations but do not discuss it with a Spanker. We're not supposed to know about it. (I've increased intake of lemon rind can enhance a Spankee's ability to decipher dots, but there's way too many claims about lemon peel.)

    1. Sorry, I've "heard" increased intake....

      Too busy thinking about Marks :)

    2. ok... nothing pops up on Google. Is this for real? Because I'm half a step away from sucking on a lemon!

  4. Bruise control -- HA! You crack me up!

    That is the price we pay for getting to play more often -- our marks diminish, and sometimes disappear altogether. But your body will surprise you now and then, marking when you least expect it. I still have the faintest, greenish remnant of a bruise from my first scene with Mr. D -- nine days ago!

    As for tops who claim they can GUARANTEE no marks, you know what I call to that.

    1. Erica,

      Do you have an idea which one of the many implements you guys used that day left the mark? I love the guessing game, though I can usually tell at the time of impact that it's going to leave a mark.

      Yes... I think I will be a bit more picky in the future regarding play partners. And that's a guarantee!

    2. I know exactly what it was -- the new yellow-and-red acrylic paddle from Cane-iac. :-)

  5. hi spank cake
    Ive written to you before about marking..Its probably the cane you are using...A good senior Rattan should leve marks for about 7 Days depending on the severity of the caning..Marks from this sort of Cane go purple with a green tinge after a couple of Days..its just finding your level

    2. Hi SC
      32 inches by 7/16 inch will do the trick..These canes are the old fashioned school canes..You dont need more than 8 strokes..Try using thickish knickers and caning on top of them..They dont stop the pain and seem to act as a bruise maker...Ebay do the canes...Just put in school canes...You can also get tthe school knickers that I recommend on EBay as well
      Cheers .You have a lovely behind and your top is lucky.Good site as well

    3. P,

      Thank you for the tips. I'm not sure how sexy "thickish knickers" are, but I will do some research. These bruises were the handiwork for a 3/8" crook handled rattan cane.

      Welcome to the blog, I'm glad you're enjoying it!

  6. I don't think it's possible for someone to guarantee to not mark you. Everyone's body is different. Complexion, skin condition, severity of the spanking, what implements are used; these are all factors that can be a bit unpredictable as to whether or not someone will bruise.

    I almost always mark. After years of being spanked, it hasn't gone away. It's just how my skin is. I've always been a bruiser. I'll look down at my arm and see some big bruise and have no clue what I may have run into the day before. I'm also super pale.

    After a few day long spanking party, I'm nearly always a solid mass of purple. I can't do anything to change it (except just not play and what fun would that be? lol)so I've gotten used to it. But I always have to warn tops that I do bruise easily and not to be surprised. I've been turned down to play before because some didn't want to be spanking me over bruises. It sucks, but what can you do?
