Hitting a girl is as bad as hitting anyone else. That is, if it's not in self-defense or she/he's way tinier/weaker than you it's a total asshole move. (Unless it's a sibling; they're free game. ;D) Hitting is wrong, mkay?
Is Hitting A Girl All That Bad?

If its self defence, I kinda have to do it, but I would like to avoid it if I can.
And as always I am a good-goody morality gentleman so I would never do it.

Hitting isn't nice, kids. Regardless.
That said, there are extremely rare times when you have to resort to violence, and I don't think that really differs based on gender. With the exception of a psychopathic woman who attacks you and is currently pregnant, I think any time it is appropriate to hit a guy leaves the girl as fair game as well... both genders are equally capable of evil and bodily harm.
The whole 'physical inequality' bit sort of goes out the window as soon as someone invents a gun, for my money.

Hitting anyone in general without valid reasons, regardless of gender, is wrong.
If a woman or man ever hits me with the intention of hurting, I would first ask them why they did that. Second, if they continue the assault I will try my best to restrain them or dodging (applies when person is stronger than me). But if I don't see a way out of the situation, as a last resort, I will fight back and defend myself whatever means necessary.

I don't think we should get special treatment for being a woman, to be honest.
Some domestic abuse goes unreported because it's the woman beating the man, but if I hit a man for no reason I'd fully expect something back. You can't go around punching people no matter what your gender.
For example, if my boyfriend seriously hit me, I'd probably slap/punch him and leave. If I seriously hit him, I'd expect him to slap/punch me then leave. Just me personally, I think if they struck first, you should hit back no matter what your gender. So many girls go around being complete bitches to guys and slapping them because they think they're untouchable. We can't expect equal rights, then want to be treat better and get let off.
Of course, you probably shouldn't hit anyone regardless of gender, if you can help it.
One thing I found quite infuriating was one of those advice pages in The Sun, the guy wrote in saying his wife beats him, recently hit him so hard his head bled and tells him she hits him because he talks back to her. If the roles were reversed the agony aunt would probably tell a woman, "he's an evil, sick man, leave him straight away." Instead she said, "You obviously need to sit down and talk to her and work out her anger problem and work on your relationship, blah blah..." The double standard actually made me angry.

What almost everyone has said and will say and always says: Hitting people is bad. Things obviously aren't going well if people are punching each other.
That said, the 'no hitting girls' rules seems to apply mostly because guys are generally much stronger than girls. I think that really the rule is 'don't hit people much weaker than you'.
In your case I suppose that would apply more than the more arbitary 'no girls' rule.

My parents would flip if I ever hit a girl. I still think it just isn't right but sometimes it pisses me off; my younger sister is constantly annoying and using the "don't hit girls" rule as an excuse to get away with everything. So a case of conflicting opinions with me.
I myself think that there are some sexist things that aren't acceptable but something like not hitting a girl doesn't feel sexist to me. To me, you don't hit girls for the same reason why you have separate events in the Olympics and women's and men's sports.

I honestly don't give a s*** whether you're a girl, a guy, in between, gay, straight, English, from somewhere else ( ain't it odd that foreign sounds racist now? Or is it just me?), Police or criminal, if you're an a***hole, you deserve it. Real nasty people shouldn't get away with stuff just because of gender, or anything else.
Put it this way, what if a real b**** is attacking a nice girl who can't or won't fight back? You just gonna let her do that because she lacks a penis? She's man enough to attack an innocent, she's man enough to take her punishment for it.

As someone who's encountered his fair share of violent psycho girls (mostly growing up, less as an adult), I put my gentlemanly illusions to rest a long time ago.
Like a number of contributors to this thread, I'm not actually a fan of violence against anyone, but if someone hits you then you hit back, whatever their sex is.

IMO unless its for self defense there should not be any reason AT ALL to EVER hit a girl - they are usually weaker than men, so hitting them (in my eyes at least) equals "abusing my physical superiority" for a retarded purpose.
Usually women cant figh back - and usually men are drunk while hitting women, its primal instinct to project "dominance" when feeing unsure or sad and thats why men do it.
Men that hit women for fun or when drunk are scum in my eyes - undeserving of respect.
Maybe i have this old fashioned sense of honour - i dont care though, men beating women deserve to get beaten to a fucking pulp...

I agree with this idea totally. A woman/girl cannot claim to be 'equal' and dish it out, with confidence that no man would retaliate. That isn't equality. If a person starts it I find no problem with the opposite party trashing them (be them male or female).Azure-Supernova said:
I totally agree with you, my good sir. The next time a girl asks me why didn't I hold the door for her I'm just gonna ask if she believes in equality among sexes. If she answers yes, I will tell her to piss off. Otherwise, by all means will I open the door for her, and then I will send her into the kitchen to make me a damn sandwich.Twilight_guy said:
