Australian colonial term meaning to give someone a fair chance or cut them a break.
Probably derived from when the original convict Australians were whipped with a "cat o nine tail" for any old indiscretion whether deserved or not...
Woman: Get out of my bed!
Man: Why?
Woman: Because you are not performing to my expectations softy!
Man: Fair crack of the whip! I'm drunk! ....Mumble mumble... Crazy Sheila.....
church hurt is where you experience a degree of distance, pain, or judgement from your church community. Essentially, you are just unable to “find your place”. This is prevalent in the Christian community, but can be extended to other religions.
Now that I am an adult I am beginning to heal from the church hurt that was inflicted on me as a child.
