ORIGINAL: sappatoti Here's another in my series of serious-type questions... What is it about the sting of a riding crop that makes some people swoon? I've been stung with things like switches and Hot Wheel tracks, and they were anything but sensual. Inquisitive minds would like to know. Well, MY take on it would be that a switch evokes memories of getting whipped when i was a kid for disobeying (yeah, i'm from THAT generation)...so there's nothing in that item's use that would arrouse me in any way...even the "pain" is different....a crop, on the other hand, is a totally different story...they sting just as much as a switch but the prop itself is "different"...christ did that even make a lick of sense? I'm from that generation too, and maybe before, when HotWheel tracks were handy replacements for switches. Yes b, your description does make sense. From your description, it's more about the one using the implement as opposed to the actual implement itself, if I'm understanding you correctly.
