Do you considering spanking a child (hitting them anywhere but the face, as punishment) to be abuse?

I'm a teacher and had to do annual training again, including reporting child abuse. It is pretty standard, common sense stuff here in Korea (physical, emotional, psychological abuse, or neglect), but I imagine in America, "abuse" would be mis-gendering your child nowadays, because the West is raising a bunch of snowflakes.

I actually had an abusive mother, so I don't consider spanking to be abuse. I was moreso raised by my grandmother than my mother, and when I talked back, my Dutch-American grandma raised in the South, would actually use a tree branch to spank me with. Stung like a motherf*cker, but worked. I don't look at my grandma as being "abusive" for that, even though she "hit" me way more than my actual mother did.

A child KNOWS what's abuse and what's punishment. Abusive parents usually don't "love you" one minute, and hurt you the next. Their abuse is consistent and usually not just "physical abuse," but more so, emotional abuse and other forms, as well. If your mom and dad love you, but spanked you because you tried to steal your neighbor's car at age 12, then that's not abuse.

But what do you think? Considering today's Millennials, I imagine we're going to get a lot of "Dr. Phil moms" who think even raising your voice at a child is "abuse" and are going to have little future-felons by the time they're 15.

I always hear women obessing over tall guys but never do I actually hear them obsessing about the type of shape the man is in.

I mean obviously not all tall men have a physique like Jason Momoa or Hugh Jackman for example. I seen and personally know a lot of men who are way above 6 feet that are either out of shape or just have a physique that are obviously not consider attractive. just like their are a lot of short guys out there who look like walking greek statue.

till then do women still prefer the tall guy even if he's out of shape and unattractive?

Do you think most people's romantic "love" to each other is based on superficial conditional things first (height, money, good looks in men, or hot body in women)?

Or is it that most people who end up in long term relationships are "truly meant for each other" and would've found each other, regardless of looks, height, social status, age, etc?

Notice I said MOST (60 to 90% of people), not all. Obviously, my answer is no. I'm physically unattractive and have literally nothing going for me in looks/physical, so I can confirm that "personality alone" isn't enough to make "love happen."

But that's just what I think. What do you think?

Inspired by this question here.

I did a tinder experiment, a nice looking guy and posted him on tinder and then a really good looking guy with a chiselled body on tinder.

the first guy got very few matches and the hotter guy got too many.

I began to ask them questions. All the girls said they don’t care about the physical much but the connection. Bullshit. Women are very shallow.

Well obviously not right?
