If you in any way shape or form threaten my child, you will learn why that is a bad thing.

And yes, if you are a male, pretending to be a female, and you are giving me oral sex, and I happen to notice you have a dick, odds are I will punch you.

Now perhaps this is just my higher level of testosterone talking due to my exercise program, but I do not think any of the above are unreasonable.
pain is a distinct tool that is genetically linked to us deep in our genes and psyches.

we get violently ill from things we eat and we will not eat those things again. they even make us queasy at the thought of them. Why? because of survival.

same thing with "a little bit of violence"

animals set up their pecking order in ways that are violent, dogs, cats, lions, tigers, wolves, fish, turtles, birds. do you really think that humans are exempt from this?
