re: #151 rightymouse

I swatted my kid’s behind when he was young - can count the times on one hand. There was nothing sexual about it at all. Please.

I disagree with the sexual connection. In these cases, it is much more similar to rape - it’s an attempt to exert control over the victim, giving the perpetrator a sense of power. If there’s sexual gratification involved, it acts as a reinforcement, not a motivator.
