Hitting people might make you happy.
Hitting you might make them happy.
Most accept that giving up hitting people is a fair swap for not being hit themselves.
Something like that.

‘Do unto others as you would have them do unto you’ is a risky proposition - their tastes may be different.
Reminds me of the old joke about the masochist and the sadist. The masochists says, ‘Hit me, hit me!’ The sadist smiles and says, ‘No.’

Seeing what we are talking about now…
What have I done???
I mean, not that there is anything wrong with what we talk about now, I just did not expect this kind of turn in this discussion.
Though I might still say ‘what have I done???’ In terms of making this topic to begin with.
