It seems that you are quite certain that spanking is always wrong, and that anyone recommending is therefore revealing an abusive nature.  Is that your intent?

I’ll take on that position:

Yeah, it's pretty much canonical.  So much so, that if Peterson recommends ANY spanking, I think he should immediately qualify it.

I don't know. I'm talking about the book. Are you? Or are you also here just to smear Peterson without actually addressing the ideas in the book?

--edit-

Okay, you quoted something about the Tampon King of India. What, in particular, is your problem with this passage? Also. . . I've read so far Chapter 1 and working on Chapter 2. Tampons haven't come up yet-- would you point me to which chapter/page you got the quote from?

I would probably agree with the assessment you're trying to make-- that he's using men who have done things that benefit women as evidence that there's no patriarchy. I don't think that's a particularly strong argument.
