ORIGINAL: Daddynvrfeltsogd Wow, rude much? And ignorant too because I've just informed you of something that's patently true, not "Chicken Little". Think about it, if it doesn't hurt you too much to do so: A direct strike across the cheeks directs the full force straight up the spine. You don't have to hit the coccyx to cause microfractures in it. I looked up DaddyMcSpanks, actually. I could probably put you in touch, if you'd like to ask him about the sources of his information. He doesn't identify himself as a sex educator, much less someone who has been to medical school. He seems like a good guy, but he has no particular reputation as an educator. He's probably fine - again, he seems decent - but you really can't hold him up as a medical expert because he's taught classes on spanking. Medical misinformation is really common in the community, actually. I have literally never heard of an injury happening the way you describe. It's not impossible, I suppose, but it doesn't jive with my understanding of the way the body works. As someone who has been paddled (hard, by a pro athlete) and caned in the way that you're describing, I've never even felt any discomfort in my tailbone. I have never encountered medical literature suggesting that the coccyx could be fractured by anything other that direct impact. If the literature is out there, I want to know about it. But it isn't enough for me to hear that some guy who taught a few spanking classes said that It Is So. I do my research and let myself and my bottoms make informed choices about potential risks. That's what responsibility means. The health of my partners is too important to trust unsupported, third-hand information.
