Paddle vs. Slapper

Contributor: Epicurean Epicurean
I've never thought about the difference until now. Is there a difference in where/how these should be used or how much they hurt? Or are both equally appropriate for spanking a behind?

I'm definitely not the most experienced person here, and I'm looking forward to hearing other folks' replies to your question too. They're both appropriate for spanking, but depending on the weight of the paddle, a paddle will have a deeper/thuddy feeling, while a slapper will have a more surface impact feeling. The slapper will turn your skin red faster than a paddle will (I think?). If you use a dense paddle with a lot of force or for a long time you'll wind up with bruises.

I'm not really the best font of information, though... hopefully one of Eden's BDSM experts will pick up on your thread. If not, check out a reference like the Compleat Spanker. I haven't read it (yet) but it seems to be comprehensive.

Thanks so much for your thoughtful reply and book recommendation! That makes a lot of sense to me. Would love to get others' replies, but this helps answer my basic question
