    Also traditions that, despite someone else’s claim, probably don’t cause any psychological harm, at least most of the time.

    Actually you asked for nothing, you made a whole lot of assumptions instead. And

    evidence that it hurts anyone

    Here again you invalidate the feelings of those telling you with their own words that they don’t like it. The evidence they don’t like it is them telling you they don’t like it, you don’t need a scientific paper to corroborate that some people find it objectionable, you just dismiss them because you want to partake in the behavior they find objectionable.

      I absolutely asked for evidence. I just didn’t ask you for evidence. Weird that you apparently read through my comments and didn’t see that.

      And not one person has told me that they were personally hurt by this happening to them. They have just said that it is wrong.

      You show me the person in this thread who said it caused them pain. I can’t invalidate feelings that people don’t have. Someone not liking something has nothing to do with whether or not that thing causes trauma or any sort of psychological damage to anyone unless it caused them that damage.

      And now I am asking you for evidence. Please quote the person that was hurt by their parents doing this.
