When I chose the "Bitch Impressions Paddle|Bitch impressions paddle" by Sportsheets, I imagined being spanked and having the humiliation of having the word "Bitch" covering my ass. Actually, I wanted the "slut" paddle, but my boyfriend wanted me to order "bitch". I'm a sub, so I don't argue with such demands.

I knew this was not a serious player's paddle, for the obvious reasons, but it proved to be a bit of fun. I think this is a paddle for either a BDSM gag|The play arsenal of BDSM (no pun intended) gift, or for decoration in a play room.

My fantasy of being marked up with the word "bitch" did not come to fruition. It has nothing to do with the person wielding the paddle. My Dom/boyfriend packs a serious wallop, but the word "bitch" was not left on my tush. What was left was a lot of stingy welts. This was a minor disappointment, as that was something that was part of the amusement of ordering the item. I had imagined being made to wear a short skirt and the big red "bitch" welts covering my legs. He said it was a pretty easy paddle to manipulate, which is a definite plus in a paddle. Every time since we first played with it, I want to run and hide when he threatens to use it. So for a tiny novelty paddle, it is pretty painful. Still, there is something about this paddle that screams "poseur." It is not a very large paddle, the base covers about one average-sized ass cheek. The leather is pretty tough and does not have a lot of give. My lover did said it was pretty comfortable to use and it is not too hard to get an accurate hit. Overall, though, I would recommend that one invest their money in a more serious paddle unless they just want it for kicks.
