Why do girls playfully slap or punch a guy when he cracks a joke or playfully teases?

hahaha I remember one time me and this girl were talking back at her place on the couch. And she crawled over and kissed me and then I held my stomach. I said my stomach was hurting and she was like "Aaaaawwwww are you in love with me." Then I had to come out with the truth, "Actually I really gotta fart." And she hit me in the shoulder and we both started laughing. Ya that was a good time lol.

Personally, I think that when teased by boys, girls will hit the dude... cause they want to touch and make some for of physical contact with them. The strength of that slap or punch also determines it was playful or you crossed the line with her.
