Are children who are spanked more likely to have sexual problems as teenagers?

I don't spank our three girls, ages 4, 2 and "on the way in May."

We use timeouts.

Parents who teach "tough love" by disciplining their children with spankings could be making them more likely to have sexual problems as teenagers and adults, a leading researcher said.

Professor Murray Straus,  of the University of New Hampshire, found that children who are spanked or experience other corporal punishment have a raised risk as teenagers and adults to verbally or physically coerce a partner into having sex.

Straus, said studies have shown that corporal punishment leads to low self control and self esteem, as well as aggressiveness, antisocial personalities and the understanding that violence is acceptable.  

I wonder how other JHub parents of small children feel about this and what methods they use to discipline their children.
