I wouldn't hit a woman in anger because I could do a lot of damage in a moment of stupidity that I would immediately regret.
Women aren't weak but they are much smaller and they aren't built to give and take a punch like men are (heavier jaws, higher bone density, heavier hands/fists) so our capacity for harm far exceeds all but the most exceptional women.
to be fair I also wouldn't hit a man half my size, I don't have to hit them in order to eliminate any threat they pose.
As with many things, weapons change everything, if a woman has a knife I will break her arm and jaw like anyone else.
Option A, if she's going to hit like a man, she's going to be treated like a man, i don't care what people thinks, if a girl lay a hand on me, there is a possibility that i might break her hand...
If any male douchebags wanna play the hero, he might risk to get seriously hurt, especially that i'm armed most of the times...
If a girl raise her voice, i'll ask her politely to shut up and respect a man, if i did something wrong, i'll appologize, but if i went away and she followed me to attack me physically, this is were i will lose my temper...
I dont see why anyone should hit anyone unless they are in danger.
And your average woman probably can't hit your average man so bad that she destroys him unless she uses an object. So I don't understand why a man would beat up someone he knows is weaker than him, unless that person had a weapon or something.
I personally wouldn't hit anyone unless I'm in danger.
It's very wrong. If a man does that he isn't a true man. My boyfriend has never hit me back even though I raised my hands on him sometimes That shows he has respect for me.

I might bitch slap her, if she attacked me. I couldn't hit her with a fist, though. I mean. I'm a bodybuilder. And women's bones are half as dense as men's bones. One punch, and I would shatter her face. I couldn't do that to a woman.
Like, there have been some complete cunts I've known in my life, though. This one girl drove me close to suicide, when I was young, by systematically spreading awful and vicious rumors about me and turning most of my acquaintances against me until I felt entirely alone, isolated, and felt I had nothing more to lose: this was at a point where I had already lost almost everything, so losing that last bit was... brutal.
So her? ... I'm not sure if I would be capable of doing it, still. But boy the fantasies I had about hurting her. Luckily, a couple guys befriended me and stayed on my side and didn't believe her lies, and that kept me stable enough to resist and keep to my morals. But I'm still not sure I could bring myself to do it. Like. I won't even fight guys who are smaller than me. It makes me feel like a bully. It makes me feel cowardly and weak.
No. I don't think I could, even if it was socially acceptable. Unless it was a slap.
Not just because women are weak, though, but also because I just like them. I think it's a natural instinct for men to want to protect women. I think for most of us, it's just innate. Like it is for children. Most people have that innate instinct to protect children. I think we do for women, as well. I can say I feel I do, at least.
Well this is where is tricky, hitting women not to punish but hitting women the same way I would want them to hit me, to knock some sense into me, if a woman is on a selfish rant and is being a female dog "slap" that's your family in there! Pull yourself together, something like that but I'd also expect that in return from her in a similar situation that I would struggle with. But for punishment never!! And I'd say when men get a slap they probably got it coming and that should be saved for times when he really deserves it to have the most effect. But the goal is to never have slapping in a relationship if you can help it
The bottom line is that I'm going to use the minimum amount of force I feel is necessary for my safety. In an extreme circumstance, that could be deadly force - but, again, only what I need for my own defense.
I have never gone on the offensive and hit a woman (I've spanked them, etc. in a BDSM relationship, but that's entirely different), and I doubt I ever will. If I had to get into a fistfight with a woman because she was capable of hurting me, I'd do it without hesitation, but realistically, MOST women aren't capable of seriously hurting me with just bare hands, and so I'm more likely to restrain or push away rather than punch - and that assumes that I can't simply back away.
I'm not really a violent person, but I don't see gender as a reason not to hit someone back, especially if they laid hands on you first.
'Men who hit women are weak', lol, wouldn't that make women weak, by default, which itself is also sexist. Not every man is stronger than every woman and being stronger doesn't mean you'll win in a fight. If a small guy started a fight with a much bigger and stronger guy and hit first, then surely the big guy shouldn't hit back, as he's bigger and stronger?
I don't agree with this 'real men' and 'real women' bullshit, like how the fuck does that even determine whether or not someone is a man or woman, just because they don't fit someone's ideal description of what they want.
Uh, this isn't why I don't hit women. And I don't think "hitting someone back" after they hit you for revenge or whatever is a good idea anyway. I only use physical violence if it's the only way I can see to protect myself or the people or things I care about. I don't "hit people back" because of some misguided sense of "justice."
If I'm ever forced to hurt someone, I won't be throwing a punch. I'll be ending them, or at least their ability to threaten the people I care about, swiftly and with extreme violence.
In that regard, I don't care whether you're a woman or a man. If you're hurting the people I love, I'm ending you without hesitation.
Let's continue where we ended last time: I never start physical aggression myself, or seek a situation like this. But I have a right to respond in kind if I am ''attacked''. It does not matter to me if the other side is male or female. A woman can hurt, harm or even kill as much as a man. A ''fight'' is gender-less to me. To not hit a woman out of historical/social conventions would also require the woman to act or behave like one. Saying this, I have a ''serious'' fight in mind; a slap or alike is not a fight; in which case I'd rather hold her wrist until she calms down. Or walk away.
No but if you hit anybody, they have the right to hit you back. Doesn't matter if you have a vagina or a penis.
"If you hit a man that man has the right to hit you back. This idea that men aren't supposed to hit women — if you slap a man he has the right to slap you back. Now, not everyone is going to agree and I'm OK with that. But that's how I feel. That's why I don't slap anybody. If you make the choice as a woman who’s 5 foot 3 and you decide to hit a guy who’s 6 feet tall and you’re the last thing he wants to deal with that day and he hits you back, you cannot be surprised!” - Whoopi Goldberg
People should not go around hitting each other
If someone goes and hits someone else anyway they should be ready to have the person hit them back
I see no reason why it should be morally objectional to respond in that way if the initial aggressor is a woman why should they be exempt from consequences because of their gender?
I will say though as women generally speaking are not as strong and heavy as men and there for mostly do not pose a huge threat one may find different ways to respond rather than hitting back
Just because it is morally acceptable does not always means it is necessary
A guy hitting me would be a genuine threat so that’s why I’d hit back. A woman hitting me bare handed is unlikely to be, so I’d just grab her arms.
A woman with a weapon or good enough to land strikes with a closed fist *is* a threat so yes an elbow to the chin will settle her down.
If someone hits you then you have the right to hit them back whether they're boy or girl. If someone is physically stronger and bigger then you shouldn't fucking hit them for no good reason unless you're defending yourself. lol
u Would I hit someone who is smaller than me? NO
Restrain them yes.
My son then 10 a big ten being almost my size was having a temper tantrum in his room and throwing things around. I entered his room and tried to settle him down he tried to hit me so I ended up holding him in a way in which he couldn't.
I did this until he calmed down.
I slapped a guy after he tried to untie my top in a nightclub and if he had hit me back then that would've made him even more of a wanker.
I read your description.. I hate when people think a woman hitting a man is equal to a man hitting a woman.
The weights aren't equal at all. Females will scratch him with her nails at most, while he will make her visit the hospital.
But sure, they should be looked at the same.
Probably not.
I smack and toss my girlfriend around and choke and spank her. But that's just in the bedroom and was all her idea for kinky fun (well, the choking was kinda me). I still feel bad about it on occasion and would never actually do it in public.
Well, if you look at the comment section on YouTube videos of men supposedly defending themselves and hitting a woman back, you’d see that people don’t really find it bad for a man to hit a woman back. I personally don’t care if anyone finds it bad to hit a woman back, if I’m trying to defend myself and think that I will suffer harm or death, I’m going to do what’s necessary. If that means running away, sure, but if that also means throwing a haymaker and a sidekick to the face, sure.
I have been trained in martial arts and as such I have seen women be far more brutal and violent... and some believe they can attack a guy without fear of a counter
but my opinion is depending on the situation I would defend myself, or those around me...
but use minimal force or reasonable force in which to prevent them from continuing their attack...
and depending on if they are armed will determine whether the defensive option i take...
but this being said I refuse to hit or abuse any woman in anger or violence as I would not hit a guy in anger or violence, unless they attack first...
but reasonable force should be adhered to at all times
This is mixed feelings...
Because women want EQUAL treatment and gender equality, then it makes sense that they should also get the bad parts of that too right?
But even though I would hit a girl/ women, I would NEVER hit them as hard as I hit guys, I would lightly hit them just enough to warn them but I wouldn't take full swings.
I will most likely get dislikes on this but it is the honest truth, women ask for equality but then throw the no hitting rule every time, like, WTF?
I would rather NOT but if a women hits me, she is stupid if she thinks I won't hit her back with the same amount of force she used on me.
Some women even hit guys more than guys hit each other and I think it is stupid to hit a guy and instantly expect them to not hit you back T_T
I dont really think it's wrong in all cases and it's a fine line between protecting yourself by restraining or push away and hitting. I personally would not strike a woman but I would restrain her with whatever force is necessary to not get hit anymore.
I have been hit from behind on the back of my head by a woman with a stiletto heel , totally unprovoked , yet I did not hit back , but I did threaten to , she backed off really quick... then was really apologetic , claiming " mistaken identity " ... I just told her to stay the fuck away from me... or suffer the consequences.
Putting the "equality" argument aside, women are more fragile than men when it comes to punishment so unless she's using a weapon or trying to claw your eyes out you really shouldn't hit her. What could be a black eye on a men could end up as an orbital fracture, a broken jaw or worse on a women. Bone density is a bitch.
Largely no. Yes equality etc bla bla. But fact is a man hitting will do more damage then a women hitting. Which is why the only exception to hitting a girl I will make is spanking you can’t do any real damage there besides bruising and that’s a last resort.
