Should Women Be Beaten?

Sounds good on paper.
But I'll have to say that I grew up in a generation when parents and schools whipped unruly children. And in that time most children grew up to be much more respectful of others.
I'm floored at how many outright disrespectful brats have turned up in the latest generation.
no, i'm asking the questions
what does scripture say about the punishments appropriate for a woman who engages in adultery, for instance?
I have to wonder about the decency of a man who even proposes such a question.
which question is that?

I remember a little controversy about this among my friends and me back in the Sims 2 days. Sometimes, in that game, married couples would become so unhappy with each other (usually if one had cheated on the other) that one would actually attack the other. Male or female had no role in determining the winner of the fight, but whenever the female won the scuffle the response was usually something along the lines of "LOL - she showed him!" or "he got what he deserved" if the male caused the problem in the first place. A male victory, however, tended to result in feelings of unease and disgust at the virtual spousal abuse which had just occurred. There certainly was a bit of a double standard. Also when different-sex siblings fought each other.
Anyway......... I've also questioned (here and elsewhere) the joy and glee a lot of people seem to have at the idea of male criminals being sexually abused by other males in prison - because they deserve it. Does that mean female criminals might deserve it too? What horrible things could a woman do that should make us feel it is right and just that she be sexually abused by men in prison? If nothing, no matter how horrible, why nevertheless will it on men?

I think it is appalling that people incarcerated for any reason are not safe from physical abuse.
Depends on whether your looking in the OT or the NT or at Abraham and Hagar -King David and Bathsheba or Israel and God or Jesus and the woman caught in adultery and all those who commit adultery in their heart when they lust after another.
Even in all these instances though, i never see where a husband should beat his wife, so clarify for that for me.

These are valid questions....... One answer that comes to mind, is that a child's brain is at a different stage of development than a fully grown and mature adult brain. The neural pathways that are built in the young brain (result of corporal punishment) would be dramatically different than the neural pathway delta in the adult brain. The effect on the punished subject would be dramatically different.
Depends on what you are calling abuse and what level match you are for them and whether or not you can escape from it.
you're agreeing?
Wait, shoving matches aren't abuse when you do it and get the better end of the deal, neither is apparently spanking a spouse, but you being shoved is now being beaten?
This is rich.
Absolutely none.
