Raising a hand in anger. Even if the implied threat is never followed through on, just the fact that you THOUGHT about raising a hand in anger to me, to my child, or to anyone else is enough to get you shown the door. This goes for men or women.
That is not to say I disagree with a good spanking when appropriate for my child. HOWEVER, I will not spank her in anger. Ever. To do so invites the crossing of that line into abuse; an angry parent spanks to punish, not to discipline. But, that is a subject for another thread.
