Spanking_therapy
This article is nonsense, as it descibes a "therapy" which doesn't actually exist. Presumably this, and the one supposed externally linked source on this, are written by people involved in bdsm type erotic spanking. Fictional therapies imagined by a couple people are not a candidate for a wikipedia article. Xyzzyplugh 22:03, 5 December 2005 (UTC) Bold text KEEP  There is a usefulness to spanking therapy. From personal experience I have had a deep need for spankings for fifty years (since I was nine). It has nothing to do with BDSM although many people that need this therapy pass it off as such since BDSM seems more acceptable than the truth. ie Some people desire and need spanking for motivation and love. -- — Preceding unsigned comment added by 205.208.227.49 (talk • contribs)

 * Delete. I thought it was going to be about the Russian scientist that found that regular canings were an effective treatment for depression, but this doesn't seem to be about that. Somewhere between OR and a how-to. --Last Malthusian 23:24, 5 December 2005 (UTC)

 * Delete. Someones been frequenting those adult websites with 'consentual' spanking between parents and daughters it seems. News flash...they do it for the money, there's no therepy involved :P Nezu Chiza 04:48, 6 December 2005 (UTC)

KEEP - It is an emerging therapy. A few users not understanding it doesn't make it imaginary. It is NOT related to BDSM or erotic spanking. -- — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.175.145.76 (talk • contribs)
 * It may well be an emerging therapy, but it has not emerged yet, and as far as I can tell is practically nonexistant. A single website about it, which seems to be written by a single person, does not qualify a topic for wikipedia.--Xyzzyplugh 15:43, 9 December 2005 (UTC)
