Do you believe that men have the right to hit women in self defense? (Page 2)

Question

So let's me explain if a women start acting aggressively maybe gets to the point of hitting do you think a man should be legally able to fight back. I see a lot of you shouldn't hit any women under any circumstance which I think is bullshit. Even my mum who has been hit by men even says to me if your in an abusive relationship knock fuck out of her. My opinion is pretty much the same, if you use violence against me I will use violence back just much better since am trained in fighting (MMA)  I also believe that men should be more open about being in abusive relationship with women but unfortunately society tends to label them as weak if they try and get help and abusers when they do fight back. So women do you agree that if a women is being abusive or aggressive, men have the right to fight back and men would you hit a women if they started a fight with you?

OddBeMe · Answer

Tough one. Society says to let a woman hit you. Legally I think you can defend yourself. But only enough to get away. If you beat the shit out of a woman you’re going to jail. But all this really doesn’t matter because most violence is men against women.

MajesticTwelve · Answer

Everyone has the right to defend themselves, regardless of the gender of the attacker.

MannMitAntworten · Answer

Unfortunately a woman can injure herself beating the fucking tar out of a guy who does not fight back and because she hurt herself assaulting you, you both still go to jail. She gets leniency... This is one of those areas where women get to enjoy special treatment and that will not likely ever change in spite if a certain 'movement' claiming to desire equality. Uh huh...

PondyPand · Answer

Anyone being hit should have the right to self defence. That said, it shouldn't be a case of "you hit me I'll beat shit out of you"...

Anonymous · Answer

Yes, but only reasonable force.

When she hits you you put her down untill she calms down to prevent injuries to you or herself, if you see that any more coming.

NOT when she hits you once and not intend to hit you anymore or hits you playfully and you brake her jaw for it, for that is very long jail sentence.

CocoBat · Answer

Yes they do, but it's sad because I'd still recommend getting out because a lot of times men get blamed for attacking even when it was self defense

Vallius86 · Answer

No he should allow her to beat him to death otherwise he is a sexist Harvey Weinstein Bill Cosby a******.
LOLOLOL!
IS THIS REALLY THE WORLD WE LIVE IN?
The kindest men towards women in all history are being treated like s*** because the previous generations were assholes. I do not think that is right.

talltom94 · Answer

If she is violent then absolutely, having a vagina does not automatically mean you are a fragile creature, if they are aggressive, abusive and violent yo someone else then they can take that and a man should have every right to defend himself to the necessary extent. But naturally violence shouldn't be the answer, but if there's no alternative then everyone has that right to defend themselves, your genitals have no reflection on someone's ability to be violent

DeeDeeDeVour · Answer

If you can avoid it, that'll be optimal.  However, I can't blame you if she started the fight & went berserk on you.

hafinjun · Answer

I have 2 good friends he's 6'3in good shape , she's 5'3 , she tends to the mouthy side when angry, I've seen her going off and snacking him insulting him, once she hit him hard enough to bruise and one of their kids called the cops, it was a priceless look when the cops realised it wasn't him hitting her, and yes they arrested her. I've seen him restrain her I think you do what you can do to be safe.

megaman242 · Answer

A women ones went all nuts on me and was kicking and punching me. I did not hit back. But I lifted her up and trow her in some bushes. She did not get hurt, but she had a hard time getting out of the bushes. By that time I was long gone from that crazy idiot.

Dragonfly87 · Answer

You can defend yourself against anyone. Try not to overdo though or else your martial arts becomes a weapon and you can get charged.

Example: If a weaker dude/average Joe smacks you but your life was never in danger then beating him to a pulp would obviously be excessive.

DysFictoral · Answer

Legally, the guy is screwed anyway. If he's gonna do time when she wants to act like a man, might as well treat her like one and a really do something for the judge to send him away for

Anonymous · Answer

I think to try and stop her for sure a little force. But I don't think there's a need to actually hit back. Unless it's so extreme that you can't get away from her for some reason and it's necessary out of self defense. But man or woman, I don't think anyone should hit anyone.

jillybeanns · Answer

That would be 100% your call of judgement. If she’s just going HAM on you the hey, do what you have to do to get out. I’m not saying fight her but try to get away from her.

Stingray444 · Answer

Idc who it is, if I'm even being chased violently then I'm either using my muscles, or if it's a male then I'm using my taser to warn them to stay away, maybe even both but I'm defending myself one way or another...

bolverk · Answer

If You have the training, DEFEND ONLY until she runs out of steam, if she's drawn blood CALL THE COPS, get everything recorded Photos, Statements etc, even if the cops don't turn up as the woman could always swear out a complaint.

Annie12234 · Answer

Yeah definitely, has the right to defend to protect ourselves 💯

Redstang88 · Answer

God of Thunder pretty much nailed it.
Taking care of yourself with reasonable force is fair; punching out a girl half your size is not reasonable. Most guys can easily restrain most girls in whatever circumstances are causing them to go bonkers.

Anonymous · Answer

While she was high, my friend's ex attacked him with a knife while he was asleep in bed. Repeatedly.

He had to actually knock her out. He held her arms down until the cops came, all the while bleeding from his back, legs, and hand.

Yes, I think it's okay to defend yourself by hitting a woman who is attacking you.

Phoenix98 · Answer

Short answer yes. But that right isn't unique to a man, everyone possess that right to self defense. Whether that individual can successfully defend themselves though is a whole other question.

ariadneR · Answer

Growing up if I antogonised my brothers, if I provoked them I sure as hell expected them to fight back.  You can't keep poking and poking at a bear and not expect them to bite back

Anonymous · Answer

Your mom is spot on with this: "if you're in an abusive relationship, knock fuck out of her."

It's better for everyone because now you have set the expectation that if she gets violent with you, you will knock the fuck out of her, so she ain't ever gonna do it again. Problem solved.

eila7 · Answer

That'd make you no different to her. I would leave instantly. If she was like full on trying to bash you, yeah go for it, have no other choice really.

Anonymous · Answer

there's only 3 times to ever hit a woman.
1. Self defense life or death then press charges against her and send her to prison.
2. If she hits your mama. Knock that bitch out
3. If she spit on you send her to the hospital that's the worst kind of disrespect and you need to teach her a lesson so she won't do it again. Chances are she never had her ass kicked in life and she only tuff around guys

motownplayer2000 · Answer

I think that men no one should resort to violence unless absolutely necessary. But if a woman is bold enough to hit anyone including a man. Then yes, you have the right to hit back. She should not he hitting you in the first place.

goaded · Answer

If you're a trained fighter, why would she be able to lay a finger on you? It's like saying you should be allowed to shoot her if she throws a cup at you.

Mollynotgemma · Answer

Each to their own! Women push it sometimes to see if the man will hit! If they do that then instead of hitting pin them down!  Naturally women don’t fight! Terrible trait of a woman

SOARER_ · Answer

Absolutely. Women dont respect men who dont fight back.
Now, men should never use more force than necessary. and should try to avoid such situations.
There is often better ways. but sometimes it best to just restrain a woman physically.

Guanfei · Answer

Of course. As long as it's only words, I don't care. But as soon as she tries to hit me, she's not a woman, she's an attacker and I'll defend myself by all means necessary, with full force it she forces me.

YHL6965 · Answer

I agree but the problem is that she can turn the law on her side 95% of the time and you will end up being the one in trouble. I think this is bullshit but self-defense laws in my country are already bullshit in the first place.

BrittBratt2416 · Answer

well yeah cause it's self defense? like if the person is trying hurt or kill you, obviously you're going to try to protect yourself.

brightphase · Answer

No one has right to beat up. Neither women nor men.  As a man i would have been defensive rather than hurting her back.

LatinHeat247 · Answer

We live in a supposed gender equality world now so beat that B*

sawno · Answer

I am not a sexist, so yes hitting in self defense is fine but only when required.

AuroraRoseat · Answer

Depends on the situation. If you can leave, do so. If she’s using a weapon, definitely. But if you’re stronger than her? I don’t see a reason.

yucychan · Answer

Yes, everyone should have the right to protect themselves.

kissmejess17 · Answer

My dad always told me that if i can punch a men well he can punch me too after but not stronger.. ( he has been in an abusive relationship when he was 19 and never did anything even if his girlfriend was beating him )

Fromdusktilldawn · Answer

Independent of any gender you should be able to self defend. Stop that "women are just victims and can do what they want to men" crap. Women abuse that way too often

Anonymous · Answer

i have this rule that if a girl hits me 3 to 4 times in gonna hit her back cause at that point its not just self defense its even force considering men have 50 percent more upper body strength. if she's gonna act like a man ill treat her like one after all isn't that what feminists used to want?

A man can hit anyone in self defense. His safety is more important than the attacker's gender.

MisterAnon69 · Answer

A girl came at me with a power drill once so I broke her arm and slammed her head through the drywall by the time I got the drill from her hand and far away from my face.
So yeah, in self defense, no holds are barred. Kill if necessary, survive.

Dodo070 · Answer

If you deal 'm you take 'm, but a fist to the face is a bit overkill on both sides, you gotta think about that before you black eye each other and both have to explain yourselves all the time

xkforcesc2 · Answer

If gender factors into whether or not you hit someone, you shoukd not be hitting them. Self defense is doing only what is needed to protect yourself from further harm, it isn't retaliation.

Bananaman177 · Answer

I don't go by gender, I go by weightclass. I won't even hit a GUY who is smaller than me.  But if the bitch is my size or bigger, it's game on.

Andremoso · Answer

If we want to achieve so much of gender equality than it should be acceptable for a man to fight back and we should. I thought the justice system is one and for all but it's two faced. Why is it gender based instead of human based?

JosyJosy · Answer

Yes, and everytime I see it happen, I'm like fuck yeah!

Anonymous · Answer

If your girlfriend is hitting you, it's better to just leave than to hit her back.
Men are built way stronger than women, which is why it's taboo for men to hit women.
Most men can subdue a woman without hitting her.

Rangers · Answer

Of course, I always said "never hit someone unless you're prepared to be hit back".

Liam_Hayden · Answer

I only strike people who are a genuine injury threat.

Anonymous · Answer

I think that men should be able to hit a woman if she starts being overly aggressive but i dont think that if she hits him he should automatically retaliate. Men should be able to take a hit if she's emotional because sometimes she needs that but that female should not take it to another level is how i feel.

Hypnos0929 · Answer

Yes but necessary force is required. Don't punch a 100 pound, 5'6 girl if you're 210 and 6'4. You can grab her, maybe shake her or catch her hands.
