I never lifted a hand to any of the women in my life, but this above reply misses the context of the times, and a social mindset that is still alive in much of the world. honor killings of women or genital mutilation is no big deal in a lot of places, but sexual abstinence for women sure is.

I recently viewed a well made old John wayne movie, The Quiet Man".

in the lead up to the climactic ending , the wayne character was dragging his woman to town. to further establish his masculinity , on the way to town, a kindly old grandmother type stepped up an offered a stout tree branch, " to beat the nice lady". although wayne didn't have the stick in the next scene, the effective story telling device did reflect the times, as it was directed as slightly humorous , but normal .
