Dear Miss Adventure,

I'm interested in learning about spanking, but I don't know where to turn. What's the best source? - Bottoms Up in Malden

Dear BUM,

While no longer a popular or acceptable method for controlling unruly children, spanking as an art form is making a whopping comeback among consenting adults. And you are in luck because Boston's own, the regal and knowledgeable Princess Kali, will rule over a spanking workshop appropriately titled: Getting to the Bottom of It. She decrees this class is "Everything you need to get started with spanking, including how to talk with your partner about it, ways to figure out what turns you on, some important safety tips, lots of easy and pleasurable techniques and much more. You'll learn useful positions and the best ways to play, so attend this evening class and you can add some 'spanking spice' to your sex life!" Get ready to turn the other cheek, Tuesday, July 14th, 8p.m. to 10 p.m.. $20 if pre-registered; $25 for drop-ins. Call 617-264-4400 to reserve a, ehem, seat at Good Vibrations, Brookline, 308-A Harvard Street (enter from, ehem, rear parking lot), Brookline, MA.
