Call me old fashion if you wish. I am a gentleman and would never allow anyone to do such things in my presence. Women dont always NEED protection, but they should not be denied it for the sake of being PC. I firmly believe in equality,but that doesn't give you the right to violence. Defend your self as needed but assault is a different story
If that story is true, then congratulations, madam, I now consider you a badass. Kudos.Zuckerdachs said:
Do I condone hitting women? No... unless the women in question deserves it. And thats not the "Get back in the kitchen" deserves it, that the, "You are a woman, AND YOU ARE TRYING TO KILL ME!!!" Just because they are a woman doesnt mean you have to let yourself get beatup by her.
I'd hit anybody with the exception of my own children(Not that I'll ever have any) and significant other(Just don't think I could stomach it), given proper inclination. If you're willing to hit men then why not women, it's just equality, no if's and's or but's about it.
There's no reason to assume men are stronger, but that's not the real issue. If someone else has enough disrespect for you to hit you, then why should you be concerned if their capable of taking what they can give?, which they should of been prepared to do anyway.
You have to remember that all this came about in a time when slavery was still legal. Inequality and oppression were the norm.
Even if you just act out of kindness, or try to "Balance the scale", acknowledging double standard just gives them more power and creates resent between the two groups, which creates more double standards, as both sides continue to find new ways in which they're being mistreated. The divide can get so wide that two people from either end of the spectrum can't even have a pure relationship anymore, because they've subconsciously absorbed all kinds of presumptions and resent about the other.
It's like a web that just keeps getting stronger and larger the more people try to even it out.

I think if women want equal rights then they should have equal responsibility. Girl wants to hit you then by all means you have the right to hit her back. Now mind you I don't condone just hauling off and clocking some chick, but I think retaliation is perfectly acceptable
I think that rather than wondering "is it ok to hit this girl?" you should be concerned with "is it ok to hit this PERSON?"

Not reading the thread, too long but I think as a general rule it is bad to hit a girl but if it's in self defence then I don't see a problem with it. A gentleman doesn't hit a lady but a lady doesn't take advantage of it. If a lady is trying physically hurt you then I have no problem with responding to it as long as that's the only option. (other options would be holding her down or something)

Bam. this^
the real question is did she deserve it?
if she did and you're still worried then you're a victim of implied sexism
if a woman got physical with me i will retaliate, and only then
i certainly wouldn't let her get away with it and hide behind
'omg i'm a woman you cant touch me i'm too dainty and frail'
i'd probably slap her again if she came out with that, because it's degrading to all other women as-well as herself
I think the whole notion of not fighting back just because of gender is just plain silly. You've got the right to defend yourself regardless of what the other person's gender is. It's this backwards mentality that keeps women from serving in combat even if they want to.
Firstly I'll start by saying circumstances would have to be severe for me to hit anyone man or woman.
On the one hand, socialisation has drilled into me that hitting women is inherantly worse that hitting a man, however logic tells me that it's the just as bad either way.
9/10 times a guy will be bigger and stronger so unless you are in a rediculous scenario (eg, a lady has a knife to your face) attacking a woman 'could be' considered to be worse as you are likely to do substanially more (potentially perminant) damage. Not that this can't happen with men to, it is just less likely.
As with anything, exeptional circumstances could always occur and in such situations it wouldn't be any worse hitting a woman I suppose (she is 3 times your size and height).
So I guess one could deduce that it is equally bad to hit either gender as concept is too circumstantial.

As a general rule you shouldn't strike anyone unless there's a damn good reason for it, being a man or a woman has nothing to do with it, you just shouldn't attack people unprovoked.
It doesn't matter if they're a man, woman, hermaphrodite, transexual, transvestite or whatever.
It's the context behind why you hit someone that matters, not who you've hit.

And your reason for that is?ToTaL LoLiGe said:
I had a friend's ex take advantage of the fact he was a gentleman. She repeatedly slapped him drunk at a club we were at, while the guy she cheated on him with just watched like a prat. I had been drinking a teeeeny bit, and so I told her if she hit him again, I would beat the fucking shit out of her.
She hit him, i decked her and started swinging. After they finally got me off her, I told my friend that I would beat the shit out of him if he let a girl hit him like that. XD
I fully expect if I hit a guy to be hit. And I fully expect to defend myself if a guy hits me or harasses me.
