Something I am curious about how people feel. Now obviously I am not talking about hitting someone for no reason. I think hitting anyone, male or female, for no reason is wrong.
However, there are some out there that feel if a woman is the first to strike..if she is the one who initiates the violence..that the guy should still not be able to retaliate. So I am not asking what you would personally do, but do you think if someone is female and they decide to hit a man..that the man can hit her back?
Or rather let me put it another way since I know some people do not condone violence of any kind. Do you think that a man striking a female after the female has struck him first..is somehow worse then a man striking another man who hit him first?
Also keep in mind I am not talking about a guy getting slapped and then he punches the woman half a dozen times brutally. I am talking about a single slap for a slap, a punch for a punch. Not some kind of horrible beat down just because you got hit once.

I've dealt with violent women before. At first you laugh if it doesn't hurt you but they get worse and begin to use weapons. If you have to hit one to save yourself then you do what you must. I even had them block my way of escape. Thank god I was able to find a way without hitting her because the us is not fair in this manner

Really, though, if a guy came after you with a knife, are you gonna fight him or get out of there?
And if you managed to get the weapon away from the woman, do you need to hit her? (Assuming average woman, and not a Warrior Princess..)

Two reasons why this is a topic is male chivalry and the fact that women are typically the weaker vessels. Society conditions most men to accept those two things. Regardless of the efforts of modern society promoting women as fully equal to their male counterparts, women are still viewed as inferior to men and in need of male protection.
I don't advocate hitting women. I was raised to treate them with respect and never hit them. Even if the women in question were like Chyna or Ronda Rousey, I'd still probably refrain from hitting.

I didn't read previous posts so forgive me, maybe it's how I'm raised but long story short yes I believe so.
Despite the sex if someone poses a risk to your life, yes, you should mangle them despite their sex. You can have some limitless chilvary and feel fine with dying with it, but I'm sorry, if someone puts my life at risk? I'll do all I can to prevent that risk.
Women will sometimes abuse the fact that it's not ok to hit them.
They'll deliberately antagonise the situation then cry the victim when push comes to shove.

The rule is the exact same, you can use proportional force to defend yourself as necessary, but using excessive force or because the person was annoying or antagonistic or for vengeance or otherwise using violence premeditated is not okay.
Generally, don't hit anyone, if it can be avoided.
Nobody should hit anyone. That's how I was raised too, and it makes more sense. All I ever hear about is people saying to teach boys not to hit girls, adults need to teach both little boys and girls not to hit anyone, only in self defense.
