I think my rationale for drawing a spanking is part of a need for emotional release; somewhere at the back of my mind it helps me if I'm upset, if I'm scared or lonely to put a character I identify with in a position where they lash out against my mental boundary and, as to an extent, get taken to a point where they can 'cry it out' in the presence of someone they trust, who cares about them and, for a few moments, cares.
I guess it's 'projection' is what I'm trying to say--something about it just...helps. A sick need for comfort I guess--but I haven't been able to translate some of the recent ideas too well to post up. ^^;
