--"I am saying it is wrong to hurt anyone, including yourself. It's not a question of who decides, its a question of right and wrong"
But why is it wrong? In your opinion, fine, but why? I don't accept answers like "because that's how I feel". I may have been joking about the bondage thing earlier, but I think the simple fact that there something like a BSDM scene shows that different people enjoy different things, and that various levels of pain or humilitation can be enjoyed by some people.
"Causing hurt' is also quite vauge. Does spanking count? Even when it'd teach the kid not to do something that's more harmful, even if it doesn't involve hurting? How about when the spankee is enjoying it?
I just have problems seeing how any truly consentual activity can be considered morally wrong. Stupid, yes. Immature, sure. Pointless, yup. But not morally wrong.
