I hate the 'I DO nasty things to you to hide my true love' tsundere mightily UGH I agree with you 100000000%; I have a major dubcon squick and a humiliation squick, and stories involving that kind of tsundere usually invoke both.
I don't get why this type of relationship is so damn popular in shojo manga, especially given the target audience. It just reinforces the stereotype that "physical/emotional abuse = expression of love" which is so wrong on so many levels.
