Batman and I
When I was five years old I loved to watch Batman. Every week, Batman and Robin were tied up side by side and slowly fed into the maw of some fiendish contraption. I wanted to be Robin, bound and struggling alongside Batman, the two of us stoically enduring the trials set for us by arch villains. I won't go so far as to say I fantasized a spanking villain--("Look at these paddles, Robin! This caper is the work of Spanking Man!" "Holy red rear end, Batman!")--but I recognized that, as a superhero sidekick, I would be called upon to submit to tremendous spankings. I was ready.
