Hi Laura,

I experienced much the same thing growing up. My sisters and I were all born in the 70's and most of our cousins too. I got my last parental spanking at the age of 10 and it was the same for my male cousins give or take a couple years. But in those younger years I probably got around three spankings for every one that my sisters received. However my sisters continued getting spankings long after mine stopped. From about 13 to 17 they seemed to get a spanking every two to three months. Sometimes more often, sometimes less. This pattern was the same with our cousins.

Many years ago this conversation came up during a family reunion. The overall consensus was that the typical boy engages in much more problematic behaviors when younger compared to girls of the same age. Things like fighting, breaking stuff, and outright disobedience. On the flip side, the typical girl becomes more of a problem as a teenager. Issues like disobedience- often in the form of a negative attitude, backtalk, or word games / technicalities- testing boundaries from acceptable outfits to missing curfew with incredulous excuses and selfish or rude behaviors that leave everyone else in the household irritated- such as hogging the bathroom, using all the hot water, constantly being on the phone (much more of an issue in the pre-cellphone era of landlines) and not doing their chores or doing them so poorly they've made more work.

I was definitely not a perfectly behaved teenager myself, but with two sisters close to me in age causing our parents more trouble, I came off looking like an angel. I know this is a lot of stereotyping, but the stereotypes exist for a reason and while there are plenty of exceptions, there are also a lot of people who fall right in line with them. I also think things have changed or are changing for many because I didn't have anywhere near the trouble with my daughters when they were teens. But I also didn't try to control them as much. Which I think is the more unspoken part of this; parents have often been more strict and controlling with their teenager daughters as compared to their sons.

I grew up in America, and my experience was somewhat different. Teenagers, boys and girls, got spanked far less than younger kids but, as a teen, I was a boy who got spanked, and so did my brothers. In my neighborhood, boys got spanked at all ages. At school in higher grades, boys got paddled ten times more than the girls did. However, as boys got older, we got it more from our fathers, and from male administrators at school. One factor for why girls got spanked is that they tend to be smaller, but it still happened less than boys getting it. It was also a well-known fact that girls matured faster than boys, so they sooner outgrew the need for juvenile kinds of punishment. At least that was the case where and when I was that age.

As a teen, I was interested in girls getting spanked, so I was more aware of it than the average person. It definitely happened on occasion, and it was much bigger news for those who heard about it, much less witnessed it in some way. More people are interested in girls getting spanked, maybe because it's rarely seen in real life, and girls appear feminine when showing the vulnerability one is subjected to under strict parental authority.
