They're naturally equating it because "spanking" was generally defined with a bare hand or belt/switch/whatever to the rear end.

well I've always thought spanking meant specifically with a bare hand only, which is still not great imo. It's just kinda creepy that any parent would think "hmmmm I don't think I can inflict enough pain on this small child using merely my hand; ahhh a literal belt here we go". Seems to warrant it's own category is all

Disturbing number of posts itt that seem to naturally equate "spanking" with getting hit with a god drat belt. Good lord, I'm sorry if that ever happened to you. My parents just got mad and raised their voice if we were being poo poo heads, or didn't let us watch our favorite show for a night or whatever.

If your mom gave you a few over the pants swats to the butt as you walked by, that's literally nothing.

Well, I wouldn't say literally nothing. Maybe it still had an impact? But yeah, I had wooden spoons, rulers, belts, switches (that we had to pull off the tree), coat hangers, all sorts of poo poo. A few swats on the butt walking away .. doesn't really compare. Maybe we're just from an older generation where that sort of poo poo just went down.

Yep, your right. I should clarify I just meant "nothing" in terms of pain inflicted.

Regardless of level of pain inflicted, pain always seemed secondary to the horror that laying hands on you was a viable tactic from your loved ones and protectors. It's like, the ultimate betrayal. If you can't trust those that brought you into this world not to lay hands on you, who can you ever trust.
