This Poll is a compliment to my "I Was Spanked" poll. It is for those who were not spanked, to compare with the results of those who were. If you were spanked, feel free to check out the results of this poll, but please take the I Was Spanked Poll. Thanks!
Do you realize that this poll is only for those who have NEVER been spanked, and that there is a separate poll for those who have been spanked?
