When Did It Become Wrong To Beat A Woman

[DMC]

Amos and Andy would still be banned too.



I thought that was your implication.
Then what exactly was your point? Because apparently it went way over my head.

You brought up the baby boomer thing. That's your windmill to joust.

There was never a time where it was cool/acceptable to hit women, anyone thinking there was is an idiot.

I didn't bring it up, I was answering some questions about it and commenting on it.
When you made your comments it spurred some questions I had for you, nothing personal.

Ah, very clever of you. I like that. Excellent post, DMC.

I didn't know Peck was a boomer. I thought he was from my Dads generation.
I'll have to check his age.

This is you bringing it up. Show me where else in this thread baby boomers are mentioned prior to the above quoted post from you.

I bet Chris hits your daughter.

It's a reflection of the accepted societal norm of the era.

Ok, I see where I assumed you were referring to the boomer generation when you said "era".

Again, same answer. Apparently I was the first to bring it up. I thought that was what you were referring to. It's easy to infer things from the written word. It really isn't important now.

Summary:

1. You created the windmill
2. You need to joust it.

My work here is finished.

Not sure what you mean by jousting with the windmill thing.
Is that how you view this discussion, a joust?

I mean I hear never raise your hand to woman...but I hear that back in the day a man could kick a woman's ass (even in public) with Zero consequences...especially during the 1920's-60's...did the decline of woman beating coincide with the civil rights movement for blacks...

I fully expect Avante, JudyinTx, and Maaloox to be able to answer this....

That is so black of you

The original meaning of "rule of thumb" being that it was illegal to use a stick thicker than your thumb to beat your wife.

Was it ever right?
