And for the record, if hitting kids worked you'd only have to do it once. If you're hitting your kids every couple of weeks you're an abusive fuck-up of a parent and in need of serious help. I hope you don't do that to your kids. Kids die on the inside first.

As an adult your issue is that you talk about yourself waaaaay too much and, god damn, do you brag. No one cares about your boulder-moving childhood. You sound like a weirdly abused and abusive personality. All you talking ain't helping.

"cuts aren't that bad"

There have plenty of studies done about spanking with an object vs. with a hand. Children beaten with objects are much more likely to be diagnosed with psychological disorders( http://archpedi.jamanetwork.com/Mobile/article…)and be perpetrators of violent crime as adults(http://www.jstor.org/discover/10.23…)

You sound exactly what i imagine people that go to Duke sound like.

Man, those aren't cuts. Cuts that size heal after a few days. So do most minor scrapes and bruises you get from working outdoors or just fucking around with friends. Those are welts. You don't get welts from a spanking.

You are perpetuating the cycle of violence by justifying Peterson's actions with your own biased, anecdotal evidence. You cannot possibly connect your scholarship to Duke with the fact you were beaten as a child. Your education should have told you that...

The victims of abuse are usually the first ones to defend it, just as you have. I'm sorry you were forced to do hard labor as a child, and also beaten as a child. Even tho you are not.

A child being disciplined is often sent to fetch his own switch.

Cue the "My parents beat the shit out of me and I turned out fine" comments.

can't wait to hear all my friends say "what's the big deal my dad abused me and I'm better for it" while they pop pills and smoke pot all day... it's always so fun

So there's something wrong with a heterosexual male looking at nude photos of attractive women? WTF. Does it physically pain you to be such a faggot, or have you gotten used to it by now?

To be fair, parents not letting their kids take in ideas or notions they don't agree with is what parents are suppose to do. If you don't like something, for fear of how it will influence your kids, then you shouldn't let your kids play or watch. Better than blaming other people.

Who has time for porn when the quarterly sexual relations reports are due?

Welcome to Gawker, where every comment is turned into something it's not... NO asshole, two people WORK in a relationship on every level. That's part of it, and it's true (I'm sorry that doesn't fit in your bullshit bubblegum and cotton candy world over there). If you read her full post on Reddit (not just the portion…

Oh please you're being overly literal. When people say "having a good relationship takes work" they don't mean its literally a job you have to just put up with.

I truly have ZERO issues with this. Good for him (and I'd say the same if it were the other way around). Sex is an important part of a marriage. As you grow together, things come in that make that tougher, such as kids and strains on a career, but to constantly get shot down by your wife for what seem to be some BS…

Look, you obviously aren't "owed" sex when you're in a relationship, but sexual intimacy is important and if you don't feel like your needs are being met in a relationship you have every right to voice those concerns. A list is perhaps not the best way to make a point, but a guy isn't a villain just because he…

I use a similar spreadsheet, except column A is formatted YYYY.

If this guy wanted to get really anal, he'd probably be turned down for that too.
