The "original" OTK position

When someone says OTK one usually thinks of the over the knee position in which a girl's legs are draped perpendicularly across the thighs of the person spanking her. An article up at the CDD site labeled "Origins of OTK" points out that the position most people refer to as OTK is not the original position used with the term.

The "original" OTK position is when the spankee straddles the spanker's thigh and positions her upper torso to one side of the spanker. This means that the spankee's legs will be parallel to the spanker's legs. This may be hard to imagine so I have included a popular illustration of the "original" OTK position.

It should be noted though that it is preferable for the spanker to be sitting on a bed so that the spankee's upper torso is supported. The illustration makes sense for spanking a younger girl, but would probably prove unstable for an older daughter or wife. Also remember that if a girl was spanked in the original OTK position while over a bed, she would probably be straddling the spanker's left thigh instead of the right as depicted here. Here is a small excerpt from the CDD article followed by a link to the full thing. It is definetly worth a read.

"The following OTK position for disciplining wives is adapted from a method used and recommended by a registered nurse to paddle high school and college aged daughters. It is suggested in this forum because, as experienced husbands and fathers are aware, there is not much difference in paddling a rebellious teenager or her difficult mother. The preliminaries, procedures and product can be quite similar.

A common problem is finding a suitable alternative to lap positioning with taller females. When compared to over the lap - which older women often despise because, unless the woman is petite, it can be anything from awkward to precarious - the original OTK is safe and comfortable.

Over the lap positioning, with the husband seated on a couch or bed, attempts to duplicate the original OTK for the wife's torso, but fails to resolve the difficulty of what to do with about the legs. For reasons explained below - i.e., wedged positioning and leg pinning if necessary - the original OTK does away with distracting concerns over *making* the wife stay in *position*."
Origins of OTK

The article shows that the original OTK is a valid positon and better in many respects than the commonly known OTK position. Why then is it used so rarley in comparison? I'd be very interested to hear comments from girls who have been spanked in this original OTK position.
