Yeah my neighbor got it regularly and my mother would somewhat approvingly note that he must have developed a leather bottom! What kind of paddle did your mom use? A paddle just for spanking like the Cute Little Deer one or a converted from some other purpose paddle?
The converted type. The Cute Little Deer didn't show up anywhere in Chicagoland until after my mom stopped with us. She had a half-inch-thick orange Fli-Back model, and [Jesus on the road on Easter morning] did that damn thing HURT. No WONDER I had bruises afterward.
Having a hot teacher who might paddle me would have certainly added to my teen angst, as well as some confusing but stimulating thoughts! Alas, in the 70s, I can only recall 2 fairly attractive teachers I had.
