Letters from Blushes 29

Dear Editor,

At times your magazine is really fantastic. Some of the photography is wonderful and your writers do have a sexy edge still (not that we like a lot of articles, we prefer photos). Six of us, in Cardiff, have joined together to buy all your productions; it’s the way we can afford them all.

You are still producing a classic in and out, but I’m sure you have noticed how your rivals are copying and even now at times outdoing you. We only buy a different mag occasionally to see if their standard is worth it.

We’ve enclosed one of your rivals’ pictures. We’re sure you’ll have seen the set. It’s not the best but that’s because they do what you do; print the best back to back. It’s very frustrating for cutting out. We keep a scrap book, you see, of the best set from each magazine you put out.

Look — in the accompanying photo the girls are perfectly posed, vulnerable, available; it’s easy to add the restraints.

Please Blushes, you are still the best but don’t be overtaken. There are mistakes in your rivals set of photos from which the enclosed is taken; girls smiling, caner not looking serious, and the girls don’t look humiliated or hurt whereas yours do. But, they are stripped down to naked and the poses are right for adding to for realism. The tits are bare and the legs open. Having said that, the last Blushes (No. 26) was very good with the girl on her back, showing some pussy (for a change), but please include a Join-the-Dots type of arrangement. Adding the extras in a several page series is hellish knob-raising, believe us. Give all your lovely girls an extra something they are all lovely.

Dear Editor,

May I congratulate you on your imaginative series Join the Dots. I think it is a wonderful way of allowing what I might call reader-participation in your magazine. Of course, one has always been at liberty to embellish some of your superb photographs but when a young lady is specially posed for that purpose, it makes things even better.

However, I do make an earnest plea for some of these Join the Dots pictures to be in full colour. Or even, maybe, in two colours.

There is another thing. Though I don’t like to criticise such an original idea, I do think there should be more creativity put into some of the poses. At the moment, most of the girls seem to be, in the main, standing around with arms raised and wrists crossed. I would like to see the girls placed in far more exciting postures — postures in which they are ready to be dealt with as severely as they deserve. May I give a few examples?

1. Girl lying face down on a hospital-type bed, her hands clutching the iron head rail and her ankles lying on the top of the end rail. In addition, a number of pillows should have been placed under her tummy so that her bared hindquarters are lifted high.

2. A naked girl is bending over the back of an armchair., Her head is right down in the seat so that her buttocks are curving tautly. Her hands and wrists should be pressing to the front castors of the chair.

3. Two running hurdles are placed alongside each other about a foot apart. Then a plank is placed so that it lies along the top of the hurdles. The girl bends over the plank so that she can just touch her toes. If she is a tall girl, it may be necessary to place the hurdles on blocks of wood or boxes. The whole point is that the hurdles carrying the plank must be of sufficient height so that the girl is at maximum stretch.

4. I feel one could make some good use of a bathroom. There is the bath itself. For example, girl draped over tray which holds soap, flannels etc. She should be clutching taps. The lavatory pan could also be put to use. A rather humiliating object for any punishee to have to be over. Finally there is the shower… with water on or off.

5. For outdoor scenes, may I suggest fallen trees, stiles, farm gates, straw bales and various items of farming equipment as useful objects for positioning a young lady for punishment?

6. Finally, what about making use of the car? Over the bonnet? Halfway out of the boot?

I hope you don’t mind my making these suggestions but I’m simply trying to make a good magazine even better.

In any event, whether you use any of my suggestions or not, please continue with your Join the Dots series.

Dear Sir,

A liberty perhaps but I must request the reproduction of the picture on the top half of page 29 of Blushes No. 6.

As far as I’m concerned this remains at the least the best caning shot published and certainly no-one worth their salt could be offended by it. Tempting providence I’d suggest it deserves a two-page colour spread with the gentleman’s bespectacled features included.

Should my impertinence be rewarded I should forever remain indebted to you.

Dear Sir,

May I enter a plea for more of the domestic discipline type of article — illustrated, of course. Much as the thought of taking the new secretary, filing clerk or waitress across one’s knees appeals, it is the more intimate environment of home and hearth that I find most stimulating to contemplate. In the home, the evening-long anticipation of the pleasure to come, when the girl will eventually be summoned to stand before the fireplace or the study desk and will be lectured at length whilst she blushes at the thought that, inevitably, her knickers will be coming down, or pales as the dread cane or strap is produced from its place of keeping — that is pleasure indeed, as is the thought of the aftermath of the punishment itself; the tears still rolling down pink cheeks as knickers are wangled back up over burning buttocks, the wide-eyed, ‘please believe me’ promises are pledged to the stern-faced deliverer of spanks, or strokes of cane or strap to wriggly bum-cheeks.

The patronising, self-gratifying pats to the plump and punished knickered bottom, as the girl is sent off to bed in disgrace at half-past nine though she be eighteen or nineteen or twenty years old; all those things are delightful in themselves, besides the long-drawn out satisfaction of the actual punishment itself.

On occasions you have produced photographs which have captured the ambience of such occasions. Do, then, if possible, direct your policy toward the kind of situation I have outlined, with, if space permits, photographs depicting those ‘before’ and ‘after’ moments, as well as the girl’s actual punishment taking place.
