What's so fucking great about spanking?

Tina Horn's Top Ten Favorite Things About Spanking:

1. Spanking doesn't require fancy expensive speciality equipment or facilities, and if you have a consenting partner IT'S COMPLETELY FREE!

2. Spanking doesn't involve any fluid exchange and is therefore extremely low risk for STI transmission and pregnancy

3. The endorphins that spanking produces feel as a great as a runner's high or a great fuck

4. You can spank with a spouse, a lover, a date, a girl/boyfriend, a professional, a play partner, or a close but non-sexual friend

5. Spanking can be a safe and simple way to explore dominant and

submissive dynamics, or sadistic and masochistic desires, topspace, subspace, and kinky erotic role play

6. Spanking is as versatile as each human's mood and imagination. It can be playful, sweet, silly, sensual, erotic, nasty, dirty, campy, solemn, serious, emotionally therapeutic, or ritualistic. It can be extremely light or extremely heavy. It can be foreplay to other sexual activities or an act unto itself. It can be partner care like a massage or powerful sadomasochistic or dominant-submissive play. It can be casual or help partners get into any kind of fantasy that turns them on.

7. For a submissive bottom, being spanked can provide a profound experience of relinquishing control of their physical body to please a trusted top. For a masochist, being spanked can provide a cathartic experience of receiving simple, intense, localized erotic pain.

8. For a dominant top, spanking can provide satisfying feeling of power over and possession of a bottom's body. For a sadist, spanking can provide a meditative structure for effectively giving erotic pain.

9. It's gender-non-specific, queer-friendly, and possible for people with all kinds of physical conditions that might limit other sex acts

10. It's taboo, perverted, forbidden, anxiety-ridden, totally dirty and therefore SUPER HOT AND FUN to play with and reclaim!

Flavorpill coverage of my class!

I was ecstatic to see myself featured on the Flavorpill website since I used to write for them when I was right out of college.

Here's the write-up by Joey Stevenson:

The first porno Tina Horn watched was called Muffy the Vampire Layer. Now she's a bona-fide queer porn star herself — she was recently cattle prodded by Lorelei Lee at Kink's Armory studios. Tonight she's teaching Bottoms Up!, a spanking class at Good Vibrations. Whether you want to be a spanker or a spankee, she coaches you how to take pride in your fantasies and weave a suitably filthy narrative around them. She's also a great source of sex therapist wisdom: "Fantasies are like dogs. They require training to bring you happiness. Walk your fantasies, don't let them walk you."

some thoughts on spanking...

Preparing for my first big sex ed gig at Good Vibrations has had me thinking about spanking a lot. Which, truth be told, isn't honestly that big a change from my normal ratio of thoughts-about-things-other-than-spankings to thoughts-about-spankings.

Often times people who enjoy spanking do so not because of any association with pain, discipline or kinky fantasy play, but because IT FEELS FUCKING GREAT for the top AND the bottom. Even though spanking can be a mild, affordable, simple way to explore your own sado-masochism (ie the sexual enjoyment of giving or receiving pain), spankings don't have to hurt.

still from Crash Pad

Often the spanker simply adores looking at and touching asses; and similarly, many people who enjoy being spanked do so because it makes them feel sexually open, stimulated, and worshipped. After all, the ass is the flesh that surrounds the sensitive nerves of the genitals, and any manipulation of that area brings blood, sensation, and attention to the place even the most vanilla folks would agree is sort of the idea of sexual arousal. So you see, it's really not rocket science to understand why spanking is sexy.

Many early sexual encounters and a lot of foreplay involves breast worship, so much so that feeling up titties is humorously and commonly associated with the desires of horny teenagers. But I would make a well-informed if not strictly scientific assertion that not as many teenagers get into involved ass-worship, like massaging, kissing, smothering (not to be confused with rimming or even face-sitting cunnilingus, per ce, but specifically burying in or pressing your face against the juicy flesh of an ass...mmm...), or spanking the ass of their partners. Expressing or acting on an ass fixation as opposed to "being a breast man" labels someone dirty, perverted, or gay: all compliments in the mind of this particular ass-fetishist, but sites of extreme shame and denial for many people. I think it takes a lot more trust to engage in ass-focused (again, not necessarily anal!) play and therefore it can be much more thrilling and rewarding.

Feminist Porn Awards and Toronto!

with Drew Devaux

I spent the first week of April in Toronto Canada, meeting the local queers, playing with local kinksters, assisting Courtney Trouble on the latest installment of her porno travelogue Roulette, and attending the celebration of the 2010 Feminist Porn Awards! I'll be posting about my experiences over the next few days...

This is me with the Visionary of the Year, and one of my favorite directors to work for, Shine Louise Houston. During the panel Houston invoked Audre Lourde's quote "You can't dismantle the master's house with the master's tools" and turned this concept on its head in a way I really agree with: subverting the form by using the porn medium to document queer sexual performance is truly radical, and Houston does it with such an artful eye and commitment to encouraging her community to express themselves without shame.

Here I am spanking Jiz Lee, the Boundary Breaker of the Year. I am not generally one for waterworks but I must admit my eyeliner smeared when Lee,

tearful themselves, declared that porn was the very first place that they felt accepted and understood for having a genderqueer identity.

Tina Horn - The Smartest Ass in BDSM

My 3 years of experience with professional BDSM has honed the skills and power that I have been cultivating since pre-adolescence as a ruthless diva with a wicked

streak a mile wide.

Pain is my passion. Discipline, torture and punishment with be dealt out with uncompromising efficiency - and you will take it. Do you deserve Daddy’s belt or the Headmistress’ cane? Or are you a curious masochist who craves to float away to luxurious subspace? In any case, I will dish out exactly what you deserve.

I am a merciless alpha bitch who dominates and trains my pack. It is in my basic make-up to expect utter service. Make no mistake – if you can’t please me, someone else will.

Nothing can prepare you for the experience of my presence and personality. I am extensively educated, highly cultured, well-traveled, unbelievably intuitive, irresistibly Dionysian, campy, cerebral, erotic, kinky, powerful, agile, and wild.

I’m athletically svelte with a legendary, unbelievably round ass that begs to be wors
