I’ve been reading much about the Victorian era. A time when the British Empire was at it height and at its centre was a woman for almost sixty-four years. Queen Victoria oversaw a disciplined society. One based on traditional corporal punishment, a matter I believe in an practice. I will dominate you as a Victorian Governess Dominatrix in the present day. My method is based on varieties of flagellation. Such a delightful word.
Â

Victorian Domination Roles:
- The Governess 
- Lady of the Manor (the aristocrat) 
- The Matriarch 
- The Mistress 
- The Schoolmistress 
- The Warden 
Â
Victorian BDSM – Sinful Discipline
The Victorians were lovers of kink and erotica. The most famous dominatrix Theresa Berkley was renowned for flogging gentlemen and invented one of the first pieces of BDSM furniture, the Berkley Horse although she referred to it as ‘chevalet’. It was designed to be opened at different angles and had openings where the miscreant could be fondled while, at the same time the birch was administered to his naked buttocks.
Â
Variety Style Punishment
I can dominate you in a variety of roles. Remember this is like a play. I take on my role and you take on yours. I dominate and punish while you accept and try to be brave.
Â

The Governess
Totally in control of the children in the nursery. She makes you tremble with her sternness and strong persona. The Governess wields a junior cane, light and highly flexible. She is most likely to yank your trousers and pants down in front of others and cane you while admonishing you for your lackstasical ways and poor manners. Deep down she loves the power and thrills as her charge’s bottom gets redder and redder and he starts to cry out and beg for mercy but she continues because ‘it’s for his own good’.
Â
Lady of the Manor (The Aristocrat)
Perhaps of German stock her voice is deep and harsh. You view her almost as a goddess. You fantasize kneeling before her, worshipping her divine stocking-clad legs and hoping she will pull on your cock till you cum. She knows how to use a riding crop as well as the cane. She’ll capture your heart and beat your bottom because it is power and you have to realize your inferior position.
Â
The Matriarch
The REAL head of the household, not the father but her in her majesty. Her word is law. Her ability with the English language second to none. She knows you inside out and scolds you at every turn. She likes to punish her boy in her bedroom.
Â
She orders you to wait for her, quite naked. She has a hint of sadism as she takes the most pleasure in finding new ways to punish you boy. The hairbrush over her knees, all the time giving you a telling off, she works over your buttocks making them glow and the pain taking your breath. She delights in spanking the backs of your thighs as she knows this is even more painful. But, she’s only just began.
Â

Naked and almost in tears she has you lie on her bed. You feel the softness of the sheet and inhale your mother’s perfume. Mummy is hot. She strips down to her lingerie, a whit slip and stockinged feet, beads of sweat run down her chest. She fetches her cane and canes you for what seems hours.
Â
Her delivery is powerful and highly accurate. Your crime has annoyed her so she gives you twenty-four strokes. The last three over the back of your thighs. One mustn’t annoy mummy. She sends you off to your room with a long hug and a kiss. Her perfume clings to your face as you moan yourself to sleep.
Â
The Mistress
A formal term for a lady in charge or for a professional dominatrix. She is special and you worship her. You find it difficult having put yourself at her mercy. She understands and takes you through your paces. Perhaps she is Scottish or just a lover of the tawse. She has you lie flat on a hard top table and uses her tawse. You lie on the cold wood with your arms by your sides and with your legs apart to show full submission. The tawse or even the prison strap falls with a ‘WHACK!’ The leather leaves wide red strips across your buttocks. You squirm and shift over the table. The Mistress waits until you regain your original punishment position.
Â
The Schoolmistress
School days in Victorian times were harsh and unforgiving. A failure to learn was taken personally by the teacher. Each believed that to learn you must have knowledge beaten into you. It was common to recite a times table as the schoolmistress smacked the back of your legs. Punishment could be instant. Ordered on to the dais with her desk, bent over and a cane applied. Stinging and embarrassing in front of your peers. Then the more formal punishments when you report to the Head.
Â

An assistant would be called. Another woman teacher perhaps. You strip and climb on the flogging bench. The assistant straps you down tight. Your ankles, upper thighs and waist first. They are checked to make sure you can’t escape. Another strap is tightened across your back and finally your wrists are secured.
Â
No escape, little leeway you have to endure. A gag to bite on maybe inserted into your mouth. The punishment is open. The schoolmistress will flog you until she deems it enough. The cane or even the birch are used in sets of six, sometimes eight. A short breather for you to absorb the pain, the heat and the humiliation. The schoolmistress and her assistant leave you immobile while they enjoy a cup of tea. All you can do is sob.
Â
The Warden
In those days the Warden was law in houses of correction. Sentencing was swift and there was no appeal. The birch, the reformatory cane, the Canadian Prison Strap and even the Sjambok were the main instruments of punishment. Â
Â
Judicial Caning was common. A prolonged punishment. Some hardcore miscreants would receive up to 100 strokes of the cane. Breaking of the skin was common as cane strokes landed on top of the previous or the coarseness of the birch rod would cause slight tears.
Â

Maintenance Caning
All of these roles have one thing in common. Each believed one off punishment were all well and good but regular, maintenance was needed for a boy to grow into a valued member of society. I put it to you, no matter which Victorian punishment role appeals, that you will have to report to me on a regular basis.
