Spanking Your Wife / Spousal Abuse

[Vetalia]

extremely.

I honestly couldn't think of ever hitting someone who worked for me, no matter their race or their transgression. Hell, I wouldn't even hit an animal...

[Panzerjaeger]

Fascinating. If this is true I have some honeymoon locations to think over.

Here in AR, legally, a man can hit his wife, as long as it was done at the town square and no more than once a month. I'm sure this is a throwback from the 40s and I hope the law is revised because, frankly, it's sad and ridiculous at the same time.

What the hell. As much as I want to make a joke that is pretty fucked up. At least the South hasn't failed me yet again! Huzzah for the Confederacy! Huzzah for General Lee!

And? .... what a big deal...

It is extremely fucked up, yes. When I was told by one my friends here, I thought she was messing up with me. Apparently, she wasn't.

Arkansas has brown recluse spiders. Fuck that.

Laws like this are just silliness... Abuse is one thing, and should be persecuted , but spanking and minor such things are nothing that the law should poke its nose into - it's normal for people who live together for extended time periods to get pissed enough at each other.
Besides, a lot of people deserves a slap quite often, especially during arguments.

So if some stranger just rolled up to you in the street, bent you over his knee and gave you a spanking you wouldn't take issue wit that? Or is it only your relatives that are allowed to give you a spanking?

You don't think that a man who can legally hit his wife, once a month, is not a big deal?

Spanking your wife is inhumain to what i believe

Hitting someone during an argument is not a good excuse to hit them.

I mean, I'll lightly smack my bf on the ass sometimes, but it's playful (and usually he'll return this) and we're both fine with this. If he decided to hit me out of anger that would pretty much be the end of it. If I hit him in anger I suspect it would be about the same. As it should be.

I don't believe hitting one's wife/husband/girlfriend/boyfriend/fiancé(e) is justified in any case, except self-defence.

yeah

in truth there is probably no need for the wife to do anything more than divorce the husband who spanked her. sure she COULD get him arrested but that seems petty unless she was injured enough to go to the hospital.

[Meikoland]

My partner seems to enjoy spanking when she wants it. Beyond that, it's not ok. I wouldn't want her to spank me for "getting out of line" so I don't see the point in doing the same to her. We have a partnership

Divorce is better, Ash. She can take every single penny he has. Living well is by far the much better revenge.

well yeah it would be such a loss of control. after all you can just fire him and that is punishment enough.

but i dont understand that urge to violence anyway.

aye.

although there are times when jail is the better alternative its better to just end it and move on.

We sure do baby.

How about we get rid of this nonsensical bullshit and just say that it's illegal for one adult to strike another adult outside of self-defense without the consent of the other, and leave it at that?

Aren't there still states in the US where it's legally impossible to rape your spouse (since obviously, your spouse must always put out when you want sex)?

Not as far as I know.

Can he still do it if they're siblings?

Sorry, I couldn't resist...

Doubly entitled to?

Putting the joke aside, I don't know much about this law, tbh. I was told this by a friend and then sourced it. I live in a weird state, where oral sex is considered sodomy.

That is backwards, and I thought Texas was bad...

As you are made contractually equal, I find this slightly abhorrent.

I'd obviously defend myself and tie his balls around his neck.
but yes, between relatives it is different - i mean, sometimes people do slap each other in families, it's normal.

Ah right, it's just regarded as a lesser charge in a number of states.

I'm sure this is just an obsolete law. But it seemed fitting to quote it here.
