Paddling from “Basketball diaries”
Films and TV, Video Clips — By Adele on 15 December, 2008 7:50 pmThis video from “Basketball Diaries” is mostly sound, rather than a full-on spanking clip, but I love it. It has lots of things I love:
- schoolboys
- who are wincing
- because one of their number is getting paddled
- and it’s Leonardo DiCaprio
I’ve never seen a classroom paddling delivered in a hands-and-knees position. Interesting, huh?

Oh. My. God. Leonardo in a film with spanking in it? Now I’ll have to go and watch the whole thing! But yeah, a hands-and-knees position? That’s quite strange! Not to mention rather uncomfortable for the teacher, I should think…
I don’t remember this part of the movie at all! I’ll have to rent it right away…. Thanks for sharing this! :)
Kind of an odd position for a paddling. I attended an all-boy Jesuit high school. Classroom paddlings, which were common, were done bent over the desk over underpants. If you got sent to the Prefect of Discipline’s office for a more serious offence, you’d get five to ten, sometimes fifteen, with a fiercer paddle either on the bare or, if practicable, over thin gym shorts and a jock-strap; or the dreaded strop.
Boys had to stand at their desk silently if one of us got a classroom paddling, and any wincing, noise or other disturbance from any of us would would result in a chit to visit the discipline office.
N.B.: Neither the swing, nor the sound effects, in this clip are beleivable.
At my high school, at 10:30 A.M., and at 3:45 P.M., the Prefect of Discipline’s secretary, Mrs. O’Neil, would say over the loudspeaker: “The following boys will report to the discipine office for correction….”
Incidentally, it wouldn’t be too hard to learn the name of this high school. Juatice Scalia graduated from it more than a genaration before me. The motto still is, “Boys enter here to learn, Chistian men go from here to serve.”
Christian (sic above).
The original building- built in 1849 was torn down in the 1920s. The present building, except for the dining hall in the basement, was built in 1923 on the original site. The school blazer still has a picture of the original tower, a book to the right, and a rod to the left.
I remember one 11th grade high school teacher, Father Michael Sayler, S.J., who, before you got paddled in front of the class. on the bare, would make everyone else stand up, move the desks to the right or left and say, ‘Walk the narrow, boy, because I won’t always be here to paddle you.”
I graduated from East 14th Street about 1980. About 1982, the Prefect of Discipline was re-named Associate Headmaster for Student Personnel. In 1985, paddling was no longer permitted. In 1991, paddling was allowed again. Today, the holder of the office, again called Prefect of Discipline, and the first non-religious to hold the office, is a female lay teacher.
There was also a punishment called “JUG.” It stood for “Justice Under God.” If you got sent to the Prefect’s office more than twice in a month, you’d get a strapping and spend the weekend cleaning all the bathrooms in the school.
I often wonder, Adele, if you have a slightly dominant streak.
As someone who has lurked for a fair while on your blog, I have come to admire your devotion to your art, and the way you stoically present your beautiful bottom for quite severe punishments makes me feel so sorry for you sometimes, I just wish I could be on standby in the studios with a pot of cold cream at the ready. Still, I suppose some other lucky chap has got that post already, eh?
It must be wonderful to have a job where one gets to spank a bottom as lovely as yours and get paid for it – but I digress.
I have started to wonder what you would be like as a domme. Any pics you care to post of yourself looking very cross and holding a hairbrush or similar with a “get over my knee at once, young man ” look on your lovely face would be much appreciated. And if you want a volunteer to practice your swing on, you only need ask…(:
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
I do occasionally switch, but I don’t remember any pictures being taken. It’s an appealing idea, though; I’ll see what I can do.
Adele,
You need to go see body of lies. DiCaprio doesn’t get it but he has to watch a naked guy get his butt whipped while tied to a table.
I think you will enjoy it.

Hmm, sounds as though I would indeed enjoy that! Thanks for the tip
