im not sure what kind of mood this is but its a big one
Now a new study looking at 400,000 youths from 88 countries around the world suggests such bans are making a difference in reducing youth violence. It marks the first systematic assessment of whether an association exists between a ban on corporal punishment and the frequency in which adolescents get into fights.
Aside from the fact that personal experience doesn’t trump empirical evidence, I have Some Thoughts for all the commenters who are regurgitating the “well I got spanked as a child and I turned out fine” party line.
I responded the same as you whenever the topic came up, until I finally went to a psychologist for the first time at 21 years old. As a successful 4.0 honor-roll college student, I thought, at the time, that I was the shining example of “why physical punishment must be good for children” because it Instilled Good Values etc. Except fifteen minutes into our initial session, the psychologist stopped me and said, “you were spanked quite a bit as a child, weren’t you? And likely into your early teenage years, too?” despite the fact that we were talking about the way my OCD and anxiety manifested and hadn’t even touched on my family or childhood yet. Obviously, spanking was not the thing that ruined me. But after a few years of therapy and a good amount of reading on the subject I also understand now that my mental illness is undoubtedly connected, in some part, to the way I was raised. For example: My father is the one that spanked me, when I was child. There is a reason that now, at nearly 30 years old, I have an automatic fear response when a man raises his voice. It can be at someone else. At a football game on television. It doesn’t matter. I am a grown ass adult and to this day I struggle with any kind of confrontation that involves a man, even in a professional setting, because I suddenly won’t be able to make words work. Me. A PhD student who speaks at conferences and teaches undergrads every day. No words. My heart will race and my hands will go all tingly and I’ll get light headed and if I can’t remove myself from the situation quickly enough I’ll have a full-blown panic attack. And objectively I know that I am perfectly safe and not in danger but I will still be afraid.
It shouldn’t have taken a psychologist to tell me that this is because for the first fourteen years of my life Man Yelling almost inevitably was followed by Pain.
Anyway, I guess what I’m getting at is: if your response to a massive amount of empirical evidence saying “spanking is bad” is to say “well I was spanked and turned out fine,” I suggest that perhaps you are not as fine as you think.

REBLOG
Re-reblog with some extra notes because a lot of people are just like ‘we’re all fucked/we’re gonna die’.
Listen, not all food is equally as contaminable. Some small notes are stay away from delicate greens because they grow on thre ground where the poop is but cannot stand up to rigorous washing OR cooking, which is why stuff like romaine lettuce and baby spinach is a problem.
All other veggies can and should be thoroughly washed, and if you eat a lot of raw veg and want to be safe- cook it. People have shit on cooking food lately with all the raw vegan hype but guess why we humans started to do it? Two main reasons, one is increased nutrient absorption, the other is you don’t get the shits and die as often from cooked food.
Also, meat is not your friend right now. If you are used to eating meat, I would avoid it and switch to eggs, which are sealed and even if the outsides came from a chicken’s ass, the inside is safe. Fish also tends to be cleaner and is always less at risk of pathogens than farm meat but again, be careful.
This is survivable, if it wasn’t there’d be no point to warning you. Y'all will not survive what’s coming if you see every bit of news as proof of your doom.
Forewarned is forearmed. Be safe, be sharp, be helpful.
