Spanking implements - Cane (caning)
| A cane is a long, straight wooden stick, generally of bamboo, Malacca (rattan), or some similar plant, mainly used as a support, such as a walking stick or as an instrument of punishment. Rattan canes especially are used to beat someone, generally on the buttocks or the palm of the hand, as a form of physical punishment, (often as a severe spanking, like a paddling) specifically known as caning, both domestic and judicial, and traditional in various cultures, notably England and many nations of the Commonwealth.
Caning is a physical punishment consisting of a beating with a cane, generally applied on the bare or clad buttocks, hand(s) (palm, rarely knuckles) or even the soles of the feet. |
