How Old to stop spanking Daughters?

[Farmgirl]

If you're male, then no, you shouldn't be spanking teenage daughters. If the necessity to administer corporal punishment hasn't ended by the time a girl is 11 or 12, then you need to look into your parenting skills, rather than just assuming that she has a continuing "need" for corporal punishment. CP is meant to be a childhood control device that ought to morph into more verbal controls as a child matures. The risk of sexual factors entering in becomes too great with a daughter after that. Speaking for myself, having morphed from being a childhood disciplinary spankee to being an adult, erotic M/f female bottom, I cannot fully separate the discipline aspect of spanking from the erotic/sexual. However, in fairness I have to say that some people do seem to be able to separate them.

This might be different with a son, I don't know, but expect it would probably be the same.

I say this as a female who did not have a father, and who longed for one. A dad who would have loved me, protected me, and spanked me over his lap if and when I needed it. Of course, as he didn't exist, he was highly stylized in my mind. Regardless, I wouldn't have wanted him to physically discipline me after I had reached sexual maturity.

I was instead raised by my grandmother, who was 'old school' and who spanked me fequently as punishment until I was 12. That was quite long enough. She didn't need to have gone that far, as I wasn't a bad kid at all, but she had lost control of my mother and she wasn't about to lose control of me.

As a spanker who as given discipline spankings to grown female friends on their bare bottoms without thinking a single sexual thought, I know I wouldn't have this type of thought towards my own daughter, sister, cousin or niece. Not everything involving nudity or the genital area has to be sexual in nature even when it involves people of the opposite sex.

However, you might run a test next time to see if the spankings are being sought by your daughters. Before they do something deserving of punishment, ask them each privately if they would prefer to be spanked or grounded as a means of being punished. You would probably have a better deterrent going with the opposite of their answer.
