Study Says: Spanking Brings Couples Closer Together

By Urbanist in Science & Tech on Mar 31, 2009 at 8:00 pm

To be fair, there may be other ways to explain their conclusions – and you might not need the clamps, harnesses and whips to replicate that kind of closeness (simply cooking a meal together might do the trick as well). Still, there is a stigma associated with S&M that critics are calling into question.

SPANKING is stressful at first, but it could bring consenting couples closer together. That’s the implication of two studies of hormonal changes associated with sadomasochistic (S&M) activities including spanking, bondage and flogging.

    Whatever it takes to prolong the steady testosterone increase, and avoid the dopamine blast of natural orgasm, which has been compared on MRI scans to be similar to heroin rush. Tantric sex, S&M, and anything that delays or avoids that blast, is better for you. Another interesting article on that here:

    So nice that the budget crisis hasn’t affected the ability of universities to pay their scientists to attend S&M parties.

    Love the article Johnnycat posted. This is all very interesting. The science behind it all is cool. And I can def vouch for their findings. Spanking does bring couples together, in my experience.
