I listen to a radio show that airs out of Cincinnati and one of the main guys on the morning team is an admitted spanko. He constantly makes references about liking spanking, being a sub and the others tease him about it. For Valentine's Day, they lined up a professional Dominatrix for an interview (to give "ideas" to people for Valentine's Day) and this guy (Bob the Producer is his on-air persona), after all the joking and teasing about his preferences were aside, had quite a serious and interesting exchange with the Domme, including talking about his own first awareness and how he came to like spanking. He even admitted, "I'm really, really into spanking. I'm not really into pain itself, but spanking...."
It was just like reading posts on these forums during discussions. I'll bet he's around on some of these forums with us!
