How does it not? Do you go around hitting people thinking that because you're female you're allowed to do so?

So basically, anyone who doesn't agree with you is wrong? Please...

All women and men are not (physically equal). There are women who can put men in the hospital and vice versa. Just because you have ovaries doesn't give you the right to hit a man because he said something offensive to you.

If you do hit someone, you have no reason to be shocked should that treatment be reciprocated.

Since I never said a woman can hit a man.

I made a general statement. It really doesn't matter what you said previously... I wasn't addressing you specifically.

i agree that guys should not hit girls... but sometimes depending on the situation if you hit someone our natural reaction is to hit back. But its still not an excuse to hit a girl or anyone in fact.

Damn can't everyone just get along

Therefore, and this was left out in the poll, if a woman were to ball up that fist and hit me without just cause, I would quickly slap the **** out of her. Reason: If you have the level of disrespect to put your hands on me, well then you have just crossed the line of civility and invaded my personal space. This goes for anyone, male or female. Granted men are GENERALLY stronger than women, which is why I would slap not punch.

The point here is we all have the right to keep someone out of our personal space and defend it if someone is so bold as to disregard it.
you took the words right out of my mouth - i have hit a girl before it was my X, that was after she broke my windshield and came at me with the bat right hand right to the jaw she was out for a while i then called the cops kept my cool and there was no charge it was self defense - even if she didnt come at me with the bat i still would have chased her down and slapted the ____ out of her

HERES MY WAY OF SEEING IT YOU WANA ACT LIKE A MAN IL TREAT YOU LIKE ONE !

The situation teeters on one word. Intent. If the attacker intends considerable injury, then by all means, defend yourself. If the attacker is simply reacting in anger and does not intend considerable injury, then be the better person and walk away.
Claudia, as for your 6'2" martial artist, it sounds as though he needs to go back to class and learn some self-discipline before his aggression ends up with him eating a bullet. Either that, or find a better instructor. Those who truly pursue martial arts should have learned control and composure long before they learned to throw a punch or kick.

You are aware of what the term "general statement" means right? It means I was not addressing you, ie there were no false statements made because I wasn't talking directly to/about you.

not to get in the middle of something, although i obviouly am; as far as i'm concerned women and men are equal. as such, it's not right to hit anyone when there's any other option to protect yourself. i've never been in a fist fight, and while i've been close to hitting some guys, restraint won and probably saved me from a lot of trouble. i think violence comes into play when feel such a need to be right and "win" the argument, but the truth is you're never right when you solve disputes with violence. ok, the soapbox is going back in the closet now.

Like I said, I was hit by my spouse (at least once a week, sometimes everyday or so.)

My natural reaction to being slapped is to floor the person who hits me.

...When I have a little woman swinging windmills at me, my natural reaction is to give her a tiger-uppercut (ala streetfighter).

...when that woman hits me, and i grab her hands to keep them from striking me, they go to head butts my natural reaction is to head butt them and gash their forhead.

but, if I did my natural reaction, to anyone, i'd be in jail, or at least a dumb animal who can't control myself. I guess i grew up in a violent household, where i learned hitting someone back isn't always smart(when i was say 5 and my parents were adults)

Sounds like the moral of the story is:

"Don't date violent people"

Girl is stupid for hitting a guy who's much stronger and bigger than she is - Darwin says she should die.

Seriously though - if she did it once, I'd tell her to do it again. And again. She'll see how pointless it is before she gets thrown out of the house.

If it ever gets to that point though, there is another problem that needs to be investigated. Take care of the problem - not the symptoms.

no one starts dating violent people, it's only after we know them do they become so.

but if anyone has a logical answer to my question i asked earlier:

what if the person you date becomes your fiance then becomes your wife. then a couple years down the road you have a kid, and then she starts violently attacking you, on a at least weekly basis(and she won't seek therapy).

you kick your wife out?
you kick your child's mother out?
Do you just keep taking the hits?
Do you press charges, and send them to jail?
