DAILY TELEGRAPH: Spanking makes men happy

“There will definitely be more men and women who have sexual tastes in this direction but won't call it this,” said Dr Juliet Richters, of the University of New South Wales.


“They might not like sex magazines but they just happen to like being spanked as part of foreplay. We really found that (it) is simply a sexual interest or subculture attractive to a minority, not a pathological symptom of past abuse or difficulty with 'normal' sex,” Dr Richters said. “They've just got a broader sexual repertoire than most.”
