SusanM:

Because they are weak people Tarq. Or people in weak places. Nobody gets out of that feeling proud of what they tolerated. But piling on at the point where they are weak is pretty damn pointless.

Sorry, Susan, i'm not exactly being Mr Sensitive. I can see how it would be a difficult situation if you had someone who was good and bad in equal measure but i still think that if you gave someone a final warning and they didn't respect you enough to stop it then - well, it would be hard for me to respect that woman if she didn't let him go after that. At some point you have to take a stand or lose all self-respect. I wouldn't say that that woman then deserved what she got but we are talking about tickling after all, not rape or real domestic violence.
