True Confessions of A Spanking Solicitor

Peter Jones, 55, is a successful London-based solicitor. By day,that is. Come evening, he spanks. Yes, that’s right. Spanks, for a living.

Jones (we assume not his real name) prides himself on being one of the Capital’s most desired ‘spankers’ and in this tongue-in-cheek memoir he pens his experiences of his somewhat bizarre and slightly unhinged services.

Of course, indulging in fetishes is nothing new. The Victorians did it. Max Mosley does it, and your dodgy Latin teacher probably did it. But the problem here is that, according to his memoirs, women seemingly can’t get enough of this middle-aged spanking solicitor.

 And rather than performing his party-piece behind closed doors with a wife, girlfriend or acquaintance, he is personally sought out by hundreds of women quivering in anticipation of having their posteriors walloped.  When most psychologists would dilute this into some pseudo Electra-complex, Jones, on the other hand, proclaims that women turn to him for genuine therapeutic reasons- be it physical gratification of cerebral catharsis. A physcotherapist specialising in the Gluteus Maximus, if you like.

 For some, ‘True Confessions of a Spank Daddy’, will be a Mills & Boon, warts -and - all, lamentable confession of an old profligate. For others, a fascinating, sumptuously graphic, insight into the life of, what we can only assume, a balding, middle-aged solicitor done good. Whatever your take on this somewhat outlandish diary, what is unquestionably interesting is its probe into the workings of the female mind and its distortion of the notion that mainly, if not only, men seek out extra-curricular thrills.

The 55 - year - old's clients range from high-profile, high-powered City types to the less likely demographic of housewives and cuddly mummies; all wanting to be put over his knee. Some reveal their innate desires to be spanked forcefully- something they are afraid to put forward to their partners for fear of reaction or rejection. Others turn to his handy services to help them quit smoking, stop spending on their credit cards and lose weight.

One woman, Ginny, became gym pals with Jones and their friendship soon spilled over into an occasional personal one. Over the course of 15 months, she was 'punished' for any lapses in her routine or diet. Eventually she lost 19kg (3st) and is now due to get married – and owes it all to her spankings.

Perhaps he should have just whacked her with a huge solicitor’s fee- that’s a good an appetite suppressant if ever there was one.
