My goodness, it certainly must have taken HOURS and HOURS of visiting thespankingblog.com and sifting through all the different kinds of spankings to find these pictures.

Someone has a fetish.

Something I don't understand is how people claim this sort of thing doesn't go on, and then they turn around and make pictures of it available for everyone online?

I'd say this sort of thing doesn't go on in the majority of greek life. Finding images that represent only the minority of greek life is a piss poor way of trying to make every greek organization look bad.

You DO realize that sororities and fraternities are not the only clubs/organizations to have paddles, right?

ETA: Good grief. One of those pictures looks like it's from a bachelorette party in a bar. Those girls may not have even gone to college.

I just went back and read all of "Concerned451's" posts. What a loser. Who would believe most of that junk? And why would GC care about random non-Greek hazings?

I don't care to visit the spanking blog but from what you guys have described, it's probably a bunch of morons who wouldn't know a college if it bit them posing as sorority girls. Just like we believe that all the sorority porn movies feature real Greeks.

I mean, what's the point? Are we suposed to get all up in arms about these so-called sorority paddlings? Maybe we should trace them down and report them to their supposed nationals, even if they did manage to snag some jerseys off of eBay? Should we shed a few tears for the "victims"?

Anybody who believes this poop, I have some swamp land in Florida I'd like to sell you....

Oh I'm sure you're probably right and that there are many really fun groups out there who use an instrument of corporal punishment symbolically to represent the ideals of the group. Why, do you recognize someone?

Look, deflect the obvious all you want, and by all means, attack the messenger, but the pictures paint an ugly picture, and do so from a broad sampling. I would agree that this doesn't go on everywhere, but why does it occur at all? Why is it welcomed?

First of all, YOU'RE the one who entitled the thread "SORORITY paddle hazing." I'm just trying to point out that paddles/paddling is not a concept unique to Greek orgs. If you truly wanted to discuss why paddling occurs at all, you should have titled the thread "women being paddled" instead of pinning it on sororities like you did with the title.

Second of all, many NPC sororities have banned their members from owning paddles. If you'll notice, several of the pics you've posted are of sororities who are not even members of the NPC. There have been numerous discussions about rogue chapters whose behavior gives the rest of us a bad name.

Thirdly, some of those pics don't even look like they're actually paddling the girls. They look like they're being silly for the camera and holding the paddle up w/ the other girl sticking her butt in the air.

Finally, by my pointing out that other non-GLO groups have used paddling in the past (and, possibly in the present), I neither wrote nor implied that I thought it was acceptable. Get a grip.

I think this thread is a prime candidate for being locked.

There are very few photos with sorority letters in them (or fraternity for that matter) so how do we know these are "sorority" photos? They could be anyone. And how do we know that they're doing it as part of ritual or that it's even condoned by the members? Since most of the photos seem to have both men and women in the photos and most involve drinking, I can pretty much guarantee that they're not associated with any sort of ritual done by the sorority (or fraternity). And a whole bunch of the photos look like they're staged or the people are doing it for "fun" (not that that excuses the practice).

You can't take a bunch a photos from a website that "claims" they're sorority paddling incidents when you have no idea what the pictures are originally from. Just because they appear to show someone getting paddled doesn't mean that's necessarily what happened. Were you there? Can you tell us exactly what happened in each and every one of those photos?

Yes, it's a shame that these types of things still happen, even if only in jest, but by coming on here and showing us, oh about 60+ photos (none of which can be verified), you're not really helping the cause either.

What's your proposal to combat sorority paddle hazing?

I bet I know who this is. John, IP check, please? And if it's who I think, I call for a ban.

Surely you're implying the scores of people in these pictures who ritualistically, systematically, abuse people, take pictures of it and put them online? You know, the ones who actually beat other people and the ones standing around laughing about it, right?

Err, no, you mean the person who see's the pictures online and who never lifted a finger against anyone, and who debunks favored myths?

No, just you. Why don't you tell us what you have done about about these pictures/situations? I mean other than posting links to get people to visit your blogs.
