I got called "iron butt" by family members because I stopped being fazed from it as i got older. Especially when I thought punishment was bs. Grandma had to resorted to hitting me with a pan and by that point she knew it was pointless and gave up.
Did you seriously think I was saying it should be public beatings for all? Why on earth wouldn't you default to thinking that someone pointing out the inequity, would be advocating for "no public beatings / caning"??
Sure, I'm also saying there are issues with the narrative that men are by default getting privileged by "systems" -- with the very clear evidence being that the system says its ok to publicly beat / be physically violent towards the boy students, while providing more humane/reasonable punishments for girl students.
Your interpretation is just batshit, and your insults are totally misplaced.
Do beatings even work for masses? I got called "iron butt" by family members because I stopped being fazed from it as i got older. Especially when I thought punishment was bs. Grandma had to resort to hitting me with pans....

Your comment reminded me of this scene from The Crown (The Queen discusses a political crisis with her tutor)

They'd enjoy it too much, I'm afraid.

I'm not going to ask my brother from another mother who is from Singapore about this.

He told me about his horror story of having to sing a Michael Jackson song in front of his whole class, four hours ago.

Boys get caned, girls get detention? All that systemic male privilege condensed into a wonderfully explicit public beating.
