Although it's not as valid an argument as I would like it to be, I'm in the group that says "I was spanked, turned out well, and intend to use spanking when I am a parent." Although still a young adult (and single), I think spanking is useful as a psychological tool more than a physical means of punishment. When I do have children, I will swear to never touch them while angry. I will send them to their room, calm down, and then decide a punishment. This has the added benefit of giving them time to think about what they've done.
I was spanked with a wooden spoon, and it worked well. As a kid I knew that the wooden spoon meant I had done something wrong, and that my actions were unacceptable.
