"Across my Knee" Why Do the "Words" Matter So Much?






Along with a myriad of other things I do not and may never understand about my need for spanking and for Sam to be the one in charge, I wonder so often why his choice of words is so important.  At least to me.  I do not know for sure, but I suspect that many of us crave those words.  Otherwise, why would all the spanking romances we read give us back all those lovely, little words at just the right moments.  And why would all those lovely, little words wake up that spot between my legs and make me ache for Sam's touch.




We all know, much to our dismay at times, that the man we love just never got the same memo we did on "the words."  You know what I am talking about.  The words said by all the Matt Wellmans and Trevor Conrads and the Jason Sandersons in all the happy Kindle stories I love to tuck into before I nod off for the night.  They are not real guys, I know, but they sure as hell know "the words."


I'm fairly sure Sam is not the exception here.  I could read that man of mine all the pretty words that the women in those spanking books say ad
infinitum and am confident that he would just look at me sideways and say, "So?  What's your point?"  My man absolutely prefers a pretty picture over pretty words.  Give him just plain old me in a little black lace thing kneeling in front of him, and he could care less what words I say.  Sam's a visual guy.



But I so love "the words."

"My girl" and "over my knee" and peppered her bottom with spanks" and "won't sit down for a week" and "pinned her legs so she couldn't fuss."  Then, of course, there is just the the straight forward, "Go get the paddle" and "Bend over."  Yes, these words and many, many more fill me with both dread and joy at the same time.



Several days ago while showing off a new pair of shoes to Sam just as he was trying to get the Christmas tree up straight, I was tripped up by one of our dogs who was quite interested in both the shoes and the tree.  Once I picked myself up off the floor, I was certain that I was going to be quite sore later.  So right.  Sam is excellent at massaging my tender hip when it acts up, and he promised he would tend to it later.

However, this massage puts me in a very vulnerable position on the bed.  Once the hip starts to feel better because of his attention, it leads to my giggling and teasing.  Then the domino effect leads
Sam to teach me a lesson, and you all know where that can lead to!  He grabbed a paddle and took off with it on the rather fleshy part of the hip region.  The giggles retreated rather quickly and were replaced by a litany of ouches and sorrys.  As soon as Sam finished "tending" to my needs, he told me to, "Stand up," in a very commanding tone.  I was wary and obeyed slowly.  

"Why," I asked suspiciously.

"Because I want to hold your pretty pink bottom," he said.

Oh, my.  (Insert sigh here.) Now those are some lovely, little words.



So tell me, friends, what are some of the words you love to read and, if you are a lucky woman, to hear that man of yours say?

  1. Ella,
    When Jack says those romance novel words and he does do that, I almost get whiplash because it really still startles me. I know what follows. However, sometimes the words of ttwd are enough to calm me right now.

    1. Meredith,
      I did love your reference to whiplash. It made me chuckle. TTWD words are the foundation that keep us both happy day to day. Once in a while, though, those spanking words just make it sparkle.

  2. Ella! You are 100% right. Eric is Mr. Visual and I've been adding photos to some of my blogs because he loves pulling them up and looking at them when he travels for work. But it's his WORDS that make me melt. Here are my recent favorites:
    U R so demanding that I'm going to have to spank u
    I can wipe that pout off your face with a kiss
    Bad girl Amy
    You are about to be Red Ass Amy
    See you in my dreams pretty girl
    You are so getting spanked for that
    I will take charge and make your dreams come true
    Right up until I strap you to the bench
    Eric loves Amy
    Your ass will be kissed with my hand
    Kiss you all over pretty girl
    Get your red ass home right now young lady
    U R a smart ass - a pretty ass too
    Don't get mouthy with me young lady

    1. Eric is very good at "the words," Amy. I truly love the "Your ass will be kissed by my hand." Thanks for sharing.

    1. Abby,
      I just knew you would have some "words" to bring to the discussion. Favorite is "bottom up, head down, now." You are right about being a lucky woman.

      Hugs,

  4. You are so right! The words are just needed. I remember a time when I would BEG for him to talk, I needed to hear him to follow him. The silence during an intense situation was very difficult for me. Now, we have the best of both. Silent private moments....and those lovely words!

    My favorites:
    Good girl
    Get my stick
    You can swallow
    Cum for me
    Relax

    Fun post and question!!

    1. Glad you came to visit, Pearl. I do not care for the silence either. It is important to me to hear his voice. And like you say, "to follow him."

      Thanks Pearl!

  5. I would love some words and phrases - but Nick rarely uses them. Sad but true.

    1. PK,
      For now, at least you know how to write all those lovely little words and make us dream and smile. I wonder if subliminal messaging would help our "real guys."

  6. Hi Ella, great post. I agree with you totally. My hubby doesn't use many of the "right" words either. I do love the "good girl" and others I am used to include "Get those pillows !", "you know what that means don't you?" and "get the key" ( to the toy box ).
    All of these definitely make me squirm
    love Jan,xx

    1. Jan,
      It sounds like your hubby takes good care of you. Love that you said those words can make you "squirm". That exactly describes the feeling.

      Hugs Across the Pond,

  7. Ella, my Bear doesn't use THE right words too often. I wish he would. The one he uses mostly is "Your bottom is a lovely shade of red." Apart from that not too many I can think of.

    1. I think Bear's words sound wonderful. Have often wanted to tell you that I love that you call him "Bear." What a wonderful name you have given him. You are good with words, too.

    1. Thank you, Roz. You are a lucky lady. Your Rick needs to share some of his words with the guys. A sort of tutorial. Ha!

  9. Oh, those words that create a delicious frisson!
    These are some I love to hear Harry say:
    You'll go across my knee
    Lose the jeans
    These knickers are coming down
    I'll deal with you later
    I'm on my way home, get ready
    Bottoms up (patting lap).

    1. Oh, Rosie! These are some good ones. So love the knickers coming down phrase! You are pretty good yourself with "delicious frisson." That describes it very well. Thanks, Rosie.

  11. Ah, the words....I love those words. Sometimes I get them, most times I don't. Even though I do try to hint at them. My favorites are:

    Good girl
    That's my baby
    I love spanking your ass
    Who does this ass belong to?

    He's getting in to talking much more. My favorite is when he comes up behind me and whispers it in my ear. Good Lord...I need to go fan myself.

    1. I like the last question best, Maggie. The whispers are always welcome, too. I wish they happened more often.

  12. Words are so powerful. Words can make me melt, shiver, ooze, or make my heart go pitter patter. I don't often hear the words that mean so much to me for no explainable reason, but I can dream of them and hope I will hear them from my man. Over my knee, I am going to give you a spanking, Turn around, You are mine, Think of me when you sit down tomorrow...I could go on... :-) Now I am dreaming... Hugs

  13. Oh yes, the words, the tone they're said in, the look on his face, his posture or how he's grasping/holding me while he's saying them, etc. Definitely gets my attention! And sometimes all that's needed is those words. Yummy! :)

    1. Lilli, you have it down. Yes, the tone and the look. The posture and his grip. Goodness, it's not just the words after all. This was super, Lilli. Thanks for your thoughts on this.
