Nothing like a good old country switching to get your attention!! Being an Englishman the whole concept was new to me when I came to the States,  but I have to admit that there is something distinctly Southern in my mind when I think of a switching. As you can tell in the attached photo,  which looks to me to be from the 1920’s,  the guy with what appears to be a switch in swinging it with gusto. The other guy holding the girl is either getting his own licks in,  or he has thrown his hand out of the way to avoid the oncoming lick!! This will be added to my PLAYFUL SPANKINGS folder. Even if it doesn’t look particularly playful, lol. Did you ever experience a switching yourself?
