You are, everyone can see which word you are choosing to stick with, and why.
You ignored the breakdown of your analogy.
Just going to reiterate, if you're hurting your child you aren't spanking, you're beating.
- chownie 4y agoIf it doesn't hurt then it's not spanking...? I don't understand these tortured semantics. The act of spanking is to strike the butt cheeks to inflict pain as a punishment, there is no other mechanic at play. It is striking another person to hurt them.
- MrOwnPut 4y ago> to inflict pain as a punishment > It is striking another person to hurt them. You added those parts. I said exactly the opposite. There is another mechanic at play. The fear of getting in trouble and going through the process. The light slap on the bum isn't even supposed to sting.
- tptacek 4y agoWhat you're doing here, trying to shift the meaning of the word "hurt" depending on whether you're the one speaking or someone else is, is a tactic that is indistinguishable from trolling. It's fine if we're just at the limit of productive dialog here.
- MrOwnPut 4y agoNo what you're doing here is trying to add your own pre-conceived notions to what I'm saying. But I do agree we are at the limit of productive dialog, have a good day.
