Now we have done it....gone that little to far with the punishment? The truth of the matter is that many people into CP and even more so CP with the cane are susceptable to been left with some severe welting. In some cases the skin is "stripped" from the buttock area and can if not treated right take several weeks to heal up and possibly become infected. However there ways to avoid these situations that are an hazard of the trade as it where to say. To the nitty-gritty: How many of you have had a session, gone around to your best mates house and left red stains on their brand new Ikea sofa? Well I have several times, but this can be a pain and in some cases embarrasing as you might not know that you have done it! However there are ways around this problem to which I will try and tell you all...But this is only advice and you should seek medical help if you are not sure about the following.

The only good website on the law on CP is available at www.spannertrust.org where you can find all the infomation on BDSM practises. I am not qualified to give advice on such matters but a rule SM activity is an illegal assault if it results in marks or injuries which are more than transient and trifling. These words are highly subjective and open to interpretation. The following are likely to be considered by Judge Rant to be illegal: heavy beatings which leave lasting marks; any activities which leave scars, bruises etc. A heavy love bite could now be unlawful. There are some areas which are well clear of the ruling. Fantasy sex, role playing and dressing up are outside his judgement. So you can wear as much leather, rubber, uniforms and fetish gear as you wish. Bondage falls outside his judgement too, if there are no lasting marks. Shaving, mummification and watersports are unlikely to be considered assaults. It is likely that mild corporal punishment, where there is no injury, would be considered trifling. However you should be aware that the judgement does not define what is trifling and the ruling is open to many interpretations. Any prosecutions which attempt to define these need to be fought, supported by the best, well-informed legal advice.

AS with most other forms of puishment there might be an element of cutting, welting and bruising that could lead to the transmission of body fluids from one person to the next. This also includes people who take beatings with a cane, strap or whatever else. You should in respect always clean your equipment after use and NOT use it on several people. Keep a cane for seperate people if you dont have access to cleaning your equiment in between sesssions. The HIV virus can live outside the body for up to 20 minutes and can still be active, this may result in a spread in the virus. You are advised to clean all equipment throughly before each use.

Use Melolin to heal this sort of wound up.

Does this look familiar? Well it's not me, but many of you have been beaten to the state where you look like a piece of meat from Sainsbury's. This is all well and good at the time and you lot may of shot your load 5 times whilst it has been done but you have to think about the after effects! In cases like this you should always get your arse cleaned up as soon as possible, don't just pull your trousers back up over the wound as the material will stick to the wound and possibly infect the wound. You should always clean the damaged area with warm non alergy soap and water. If this is not available use just water and a clean flannel or cloth. In all cases if you are going for a beating make sure you take some bits along with you to carry out the repairs! If you do get to the stage of looking like a lump of meat you should cover the wound up with a specialist proprietry gauze, now as I worked in A&E for two years I would suggest using a product called MELOLIN, we used it for burns victims and it it still the best form of gauze that you can buy. It costs about £1.00 per square, but it is designed for the rapid healing of burnt or cut skin such as canings! My mate who works in a prison in Malaysia has told me that they use this product even now to tend to wounds of victims of judicial canings. You will need to use a plaster to hold the stuff on with but it will work and it will heal up 3 times a quick with this type of gauze on than the usual lint gauze.

Right, onto things that are clinically dangerous and must not be done regardless of how sexy it might sound or be. As you can see to the right this person has recieved both a strapping and caning. This is ok as we all like a a mixture of impliments but under NO circumstances should you at ANY TIME hit the kidney area of the back. You can just make out the kidney area by the dimples running along the upper part of top strap mark. This is very damgerous and should not done. In some cases people have passed blood in their urine as a result of a bad strapping and caning and if this is the case you MUST go and get medical help. All Doctors have seen every type of ailment and injury and they won't question what you have been doing. Other things you should avoid are hitting your bollocks with a cane or other impliment, this can be bloody painfull and I know in one case it one stroke of the tawse flicked around into the groin and severed the main vein inside the scotum. Also other things can effect the state of the skin after a beating and these include Odema, diabetic disorders and too much alchohol to which should be avoided as you will bleed more if you are pissed out of your face and you can loose control! Also as a rule pace yourself during a beating, there is aways another time and another day....

Also something worth noting is that if you do take severe beatings on a regular basis take a break of at least one month. I know it sounds like a long time but you can have to much of a good thing and damage can be done to the Glutus Maximus (the muscle under the skin of your arse) if it does not have time to heal up. Also if your arse goes like cardboard after a severe beating please allow time for it to heal up. Some people like to use baby lotion to keep the skin soft and supple.

Not a recommended beating.

Damage to the kidneys could result in this form of beating.

This is a picture that is been circulated around various websites. It is supposed to be the effects of a a proper prison caning but no one can validate it. However it does look quite real and is possibly the real effects of a 12 stroke caning. I have to say it does look very authentic and I can't see the the make-up department doing this one. It does show what happens when a caning goes "wrong". This type of caning is not recommended and I would imagine that it left the person in the photo disabled for several weeks and possibly crippled by the cuts a it has cut in to the muscles.

Some rules you should stick to when doing C.P.

1. Don't get tied up in a session with someone you don't know.

2. Agree your limits in the first instance.

3. Make sure the equipment is not damaged or covered in blood or gunge

4. Have a break in the session...have a cup of tea then start again

5. Keep a supply of plasters and other bits for First Aid.

6. Keep away from beating vital areas such as kidneys or bollocks ect.

7. Have fun and don't yelp to loud!

8. Don't leave stains on the tube or train seats!

9. Clean your equipment after use. Remember HIV can be present on blood stained equipment.

Your cane is a natural product and they rot and warp if not stored in the correct manner. To keep your cane in tip top condition always store the cane in a tube or in a vertical position. Like old records they will warp if laid flat!

If you wish to make the curl on the end use hot water or steam to heat the cane up and bend to shape. This is done at your own risk.

To make the canes extra heavy soak the cane overnight in a bath of water. This will increase it's weight 2 fold and make a bigger impression.

The ultimate stinger is to attach a funnel to to the end of the cane and allow Linseed Oil to soak down the cane over a period of a week or two. This will make the cane ultra flexible. As some of you might not know a Kooboo cane is in effect a honeycomb of tubes that run the length of the cane.

Also when using your cane take a few test shots at a cushion so you know how far the cane flexes. As a rule the end of the cane should directly hit the cheek furthest away and not curl around the theighs.

If you are trying Bastinado with your cane do so under extreme caution, for those of you who saw Midnight Express will know what I mean and it is NOT recommended as this can be crippling.

Using a Malay Prison cane is all well and good but please do use them to the persons limits. These will cut severely and cause permanent damage to soft tissue and muscles structure in your Glutus Maximus. It looks good from the stories and we all get horny with the idea of a prison beating but take everything in moderation and build up your limits. I have seen people with marks that they recieved 4 years ago.

Always allow yourself a month break after a severe beating, severe means about 200+ strokes. You know when you have had a lot as your arse will go like cardboard!

If you do get beaten hard and your master/mistress has taken the skin off your arse you will need to sort it out a.s.a.p.

Use Melolin pads from Boots the Chemist and a non-alergy plaster to cover any wounds up. Menolin is a high quality guaze that removes gunk away from any wounds and it will help it heal up. There is nothing worse than sitting on your best mates cream setee and leaking everywhere! I used it when I worked in a hosiptal years ago for burns victims. But as with all medical goods check with your doctor for suitability.

DO NOT USE CHEAP GARDEN CANES FROM A GARDEN CENTRE AS THESE WILL JUST SNAP AND SPLINTER!

Under NO circumstancies you MUST NOT hit the lower back or kidney area, doing so WILL cause serious and possible fatel injury.
