While being intimate with my partner, she has been requesting to be spanked from behind. I'll do it, but not quite sure about the intensity of the slap and how and when to do so. Please see below for some additional details.

"Impact play, simply put, refers to any form of impact on the body for sexual gratification purposes. Many sexual partners practice impact play the most common way through spanking, but those who are more experienced will often bring toys into the mix or try a slew of other acts. Impact play is a prevalent kink with a wide umbrella" (Allure).

Please note: "There is absolutely nothing more important in impact play (and all play) than safety and consent. Each scene that involves impact play needs to be highly negotiated between partners. We're talking about literally hitting people with objects" (Mashable).

"Communication is so, so key. "Don't ever attempt to start hitting or striking your partner during play or during sex without communicating beforehand, it can put them into a threat response," Rowett says. This can be highly traumatic. Sorry to have to say this to y'all, but hitting someone without their consent is straight up domestic violence" (Mashable).
