I purchased my first spanking toy. I got heart's leather whip. I have not tested it with my partner yet..but I tested it on my arm it seems u hit hard it leave a little pink or redness for a while but it doesn't really feel like much..doesn't stink or hurt much. Its also really loud so it seems you'd have to hit someone REALLY hard to get the effect you want rather than a little slap u don't notice much..maybe its diffrent on the ass or maybe I'm doing it "wrong" ANyone know a really good place to find a guide to help me? I was thinking complete spanker or ninai hartly's guide to spanking but maybe there is a book that goes into alot of details about floggers,whips,ect and what to expect and how each one feels diffrent and more? I was expecting a strong leather scent instead when I sniffed it was like a fake kind of chemical smell maybe? less
