So basically my girlfriend enjoys playfully wrestling with me, which I don’t really care for I prefer nice touching with her. However she’s failed to respect my boundary here and continues to “play” fight where she will be very rough and complain if I do anything back to her.

Well she ended up slapping my balls, not very hard but it still hurt and I’ve told her many times I don’t like that even as a joke. So this time I just reflexively spanked her really hard and it shocked her and instantly made her start crying. It was only a single slap on her ass but it was enough.

The weird thing was after a few minutes of crying she started hugging me and apologizing a lot. She got spanked a lot as a kid, so maybe physical punishment is the only thing she takes seriously, I don’t know.

Anyways even though I did feel bad for hurting her, it felt good to finally feel respected by her and gave me ideas for how to deal with her behavior in the future.

Did I go too far and was it wrong to put my hands on her like that at all?

She was excluded from recess for two weeks among other punishments. Her family is fighting the matter in court.

This is what happens when people embrace leftist, socialist ideologies. How does this even happen in the United States?

Leftists will continue to censor and attack those who oppose their ideologies. This is an attack on freedom of speech and our fundamental rights. Many have lost jobs and their livelihoods because they have said something that is perceived as "offensive", even if the intent is innocuous.

I, 33 (m) and my girlfriend of 2 months who I had been dating for 6 months before becoming exclusive, just had a conversation about how to raise kids. The topic just came up in conversion, and we both hold total opposite views on the matter. I believe that as a loving parent, it is unacceptable to beat your child as punishment. I hold this belief because I was occasionally beaten as punishment when I was a kid, and I have always told myself that I would never do this to my own children. She on the other hand was beaten as a kid, with a belt, and believes that after all it did not hurt her and straight forwardly said she would hit her kids as punishment (e. g. for not doing their homework and getting a teacher's note).

We had a calm discussion about this where I explained my views and fave examples of situations and explained why I believe there ware other ways to educate children. However, her only real point was, that it didn't harm her in the long run. However, I am not so sure about that, because of how casually she mentioned she would be OK with hitting a child.

We also disagree on other topics, such as religion and lifestyle. However, for now these have not created big fights, but I am sure they will down the line.

Would you break up with her?
