Odd.
I guess we can whip out our academic dicks on this one (I've got degrees in sociology and criminal justice, as a start) as well as cultural immersion in three countries and existence as an American Indian with unique cultural mores developed long before your kind arrived on boats to irritate us but why bother?
Your argument is a slippery slope from "spanking" to "abuse." it's neither based in reality or logic. And I wholly dismiss your self-proclaimed work experience as that similar to Jane Goodall: whilst you might work around/with your subjects, you cannot extrapolate what it is like to BE those with whom you work. Your elitism is pervasive. To wit?
"Culture doesn't mean jack shit?"
You make my point and are 100% guilty of the most grievous of analytical sins: PROJECTION.
Dumbassery all around from the both of you.  |
Correct. Convenient cultural norms don't mean jack shit when it comes to child child abuse, and striking any child is abusive.
You got your elitism, I got mine.
