Poll: Would you ever hit a woman?

[KrossBillNye]

Depends on the situation. I'm not into hitting people in general but if she poses a threat to my safety and others I will. If it's in good fun I will, but lightly .

Essentially this. I am not a violent man by nature. If my well being is in danger, regardless of gender I will protect myself through any means, even if I have to slap the person.

I'm not sexist.
I'd hit anyone who deserves it.


Now they do have to earn it, I don't just go around hitting people.
And most of the time there are more effective ways to end a confrontation with out actually punching somebody.
(A well timed shove is usually better, and looks more like self defense to boot)

 

[Dimitriov]

Well, if she came at me with a bottle. That's a deadly weapon!

 

[Sangreal Gothcraft]

I don't care if this person is a man or woman, He or she hits me they will get hit back. An Eye for an Eye, Cheek for a Cheek, Etc Etc Etc.

I picked 'hit regardless of gender' option even though there is a 'I'm a woman' option because I don't care what gender, race, sexual preference, or whatever you are. I'm gonna fucking hit you if you got it coming to you.

And that surprises people. Maybe it's because I'm 105 lb. lady, and they just don't see it coming (much like how loud I can yell, but that's another story).

if shepard can do it, so can i!

 

[RagTagBand]

If someone has done something that justifies a smack, they will get a smack, which (in most mental examples my brain is throwing at me) would most likely be in self-defense or in defense of others.

But Am I going to go "Hm, that person has tits, I should go out of my way to deal with them softly, if at all"? No. No self-respecting human being would.

Gender is irrelevant.

I'm non-violent to begin with and have never hit anyone. I don't expect that will ever change either considering I'm in my 30's.

"Her gender is irrelevant to my decision"

Pretty much this.

I would have done the same, just a little soon; being hit really pushes my buttons very fast. But realy, I prefer to hurt my enemies emotionally and psychologically.

 

[Suicidejim]

Not without her consent, or possibly if it's absolutely necessary to defend myself. I try not to make a habit of hitting women though, outside of specific situations.

 

[MetalDooley]

If she hits first then yes,yes I would.As soon as someone,regardless of their gender,hits me then they're fair game as far as I'm concerned
