A return to Blytonville

This week we're going to the most celebrated little boy (of sorts) with the original form of audio book, the story record.

1953 was a very different era, many children lived in highly polluted cities where smog was a killer, grown ups ruled your life quite firmly and even those of us who lived in areas with our own accents and spoke in dialect informally such as here in twin conurbations of Staffordshire were expected to learn received pronunciation which was the language of radio and television back then.

Regional voices such as ours were kept down, we were the uncouthed, so to listen to these recordings does take you back  but the star is Noddy and the magical world of Toyland  and that was where I returned to this week.

In 1953, very much at her height as leading children's authoress, Enid Blyton went to EMI Records with the idea of making a sound recording of her reading a series of the Noddy stories for record.

She was open to the use of sound effects and songs to add dramatizing, realizing this all helped hold your attention and they were issued on ten inch (22 cm) 78 rpm records during that period where we were moving from shellac 78 discs to unbreakable microgroove 45 and 33 rpm ones.

They were recorded on tape which made re-issuing on 7 inch 45 rpm extended play discs with two sides of the originals to a single side easier and the quality is of the highest of the era.

Of course these are not the secretly rewritten versions where gollies no longer exist, everybody is presumed English of the dominant cultural norms and we lived in world we were just a step a way from the threat of a spanking.

Times change and will no doubt continue to but that world was closer to that of my childhood than that of today's and really one needs to explain to children about these differences so they understand different times have their own norms.

I recently re-read Those Dreadful Children.

The story begins with the three Carlton children - John, Margery and Annette - being excited when a new family move into the house at the bottom of the garden. However, the older Taggertys - Pat, Maureen and Biddy are loud, rough, dirty and not at all the sort of children the prim, tidy Carltons want to associate with. 

Due to an old friendship of their fathers they are forced together - two sets of Dreadful Children - who have to take a hard look at their own behaviours as they learn to get along, learning from the best of each other, understanding each others faults.

This is very much product of its era in terms of values but in showing the good in each family rather than pushing any one, I feel she was on the right lines.

You can kill iniatitive and imagination with kindness, preoccupations with cleanliness and respectability but there are standards too about respect for others, please and thank-you's and turn taking.

The other side of you

Another week and in the eclectic mix slice of life blog that this is we'll go back a bit to the early days on this blog during a guided period in my life where for the first time a lot of work was done into exploring every latent idea and interest within me, pulling them right out.

In so many ways having been confronted by their presence and dragged out the treatment ensured they could never go back and you only consider when to act upon them.

I could never again resist them

So that meant sissykins beyond replacing one pair of Pj's for something more overtly feminine also needed to get back on track as only until the period just before covid did I stop wearing any kind of a night dress,

With that in mind and the many remembered words from those early days I have a satin pink Baby Doll night dress with dainty little rose bud details, frilly lace strips and hem.

It positively oozes uber femininity

To go underneath them, matching panties.

A Baby Doll night dress is really what the older "Big" side of sissikins really belongs in, something that is so much sensual, that while not being explicitly grown up is not worn by the Littlest of Girls because it is sexy.

A sissy that has gone through puberty is sexual even if while in little form you elect not to use that side, you ARE sexily needy and that's really the best for you when that is the case.

You don't take a vow of celibacy as Little Sissy, you protect that side of you whenever she's out.

Little sissy gurl bedtimes

This was rather more the post I wished to make last week because really when you are more a Adult Little Gurl rather than a Big Gurl with all hur grown up interests  and sexual identity some might say "and what exactly sissy dressing".

I would say it was on the highly sugary side of little girl dressing baby pink or blue, very much about soft, smooth materials and very much feminine.

Sissikins has new pj's with a satin smooth finish that gives off very much a gurlish feel, you could never mistake them for boys which makes total sense

Because it can get warm as an option  I did get a pair of  matching French Knickers that could be worn with the top with pretty lace detail, again very gurlish and smooth feeling.

It all helps with feeling great as sissy me.

Discourse: Little Sissies exist!

 Okay so I was going to post something rather different but seeing a dialogue of the deaf going on one one site one what was supposed to had been a a thread about what you might like at "sissy event" being hijacked by a Little Girl who thinks all Sissies are about SPH*, adult humilation and one Sissy who thinks sissies can only be into going to places where you might be "tied up", called any amount of demeaning sexually explicit  terms and Forced to do anything.

That is so so ridiculous.

Of course some sissies and much of Online sissy culture does run with all of that which if you see yourself as primarily an Adult who is very much sexual is totally fine.

Some do use traits such as dressing like a child as a humilation but that doesn't make being dressed like one necessarily a matter of being humiliated so much you are attempting to resemble a child- the child you see yourself as or enacting and they sure don't deserve to be seen as a kink ever.

Little Sissies can and do exist - unlike LG's (Little Girls) we tend to be more frilly feminine than most of the same emotional age and perhaps by their standards effeminate - but basically we like the same games, play with toys that uses our imagination, dolly tea parties, arts and crafts, dress up sessions and the like.

When we're like that we do things that are more child-like enjoying being that child even if we're more frilly from many a LG.

Having been their and done it I know it exists in just the same way Adult Sissy stuff does and really it's entirely up to you what side if any you're on.

Just quit lecturing people about things you don't know and haven't had the life doing.
