Punishment suppositories [I Was Given Punishment Suppositories As A Child]

It seems to be a long-standing tradition in my family. My parents introduced it gradually - it seemed to grow out of the intense/obsessive bowel-movement monitoring that was already going on. And their awareness that for me, and my sister, any kind of anal penetration was a terror, a far greater threat than mere spanking. Soon after I started primary school they introduced the policy that after every spanking a glycerin, dulcolax or soap suppository would be inserted. (Except later on there were a few times when it was an enema...or something else...but that's for another forum).
It stopped when I was 11 (my sister wasn't so lucky), but I've been living with the memories every day. Even when my own body isn't reminding me, any number of random words and phrases can bring it all back. (And some household objects, bits of music, books, and so on).

A comment I made on another forum, which belongs here: I don't know how a parent can present as "loving and caring" when administering a suppository or enema (or rectal stimulation etc). There's no way around the fact, "in pursuit of excrement", they are not only shattering the illusion of bodily autonomy/"self-possession", they are forcing something into a sensitive bodily passage - which hurts when you're a toddler and still hurts when you're on the cusp of puberty. It sounds extraordinary to me that the child on the receiving end might not cry. Which is one of the reasons (besides autointoxication->misbehaviour etc) that parents so often end up weaponising these things, making them into corporal punishments. I remember one or two instances of my mother using "make you cry" as a euphemism for "put a suppository in you" (or maybe, since she was addressing my sister, "subject you to mechanical rectal stimulation"). Where the standard phrase "I'm going to do you" just means making dooey come out of your mudchute, "I'm going to make you cry" links rectal evacuants clearly to punishment and painful parental revenge.
