| Is it okay for a woman to hit a man?
Posted: 5/7/2005 8:03:12 AM | I see no point in this question being asked in a forum of adults.Physical violence against another person is illegal and not ok. There is also the fact many of the people here have experienced violence that has involved more than hitting. There are hundreds of women who die every year, beaten to death by an abuser. There are no socioeconomic boundries with abuse. Also, abusers justify or deny being abusers, they will never say its ok, they will lie about hitting someone (look at OJ). This question has no value except maybe for a kindergarden age audience. This is my opinion on the topic | |

Sometimes they start off subtle with people who try to control you, keep you from friends or family. Hitting is not the only form of abuse. Far more damage can be done in sexual and emotional abuse. Not even going to mention the staggering numbers of sexual preditors who murder children. Hitting, abuse.... Not a laughing matter. | |

With all due respect, I don't understand your angst. Yes, you are right, it is not a difficult question to answer. What puzzles me is the arrogance you have as to what should or shouldn't be entered as a thread.
Please provide for us some "stimulating, mature thread topics.
It's very childish for you to come onto this site and chastize someone for posting a thread that you don't approve of (a form of abuse).
Please. By all means, pick some interesting topics for POF readers. | |

Posted: 5/7/2005 8:24:49 AM | | I think if a woman hits a man seriously (like punches him in the face or something obviously not play fighting) the man has every right to hit her back or push her across the room. I don't think he should deck her or lay into her, but he has a right to do something to get her off him. | |

Posted: 5/7/2005 8:37:51 AM | | Urban. Do not misunderstand me. This hitting thing should not be joked about. It is far more serious and common than most people realize. I am an a long time RN who worked in a womans hospital. I saw it all. I am not trying to flame anyone but such a serious topic should not be taken lightly. Many of the people here both men and women have been "hit" and I do not see it as a topic for jokes or gender bashing. | |

Posted: 5/7/2005 8:40:22 AM | | I have never hit a woman, but been hit several times in my last relationship, hell she even broke my nose. But I always remembered what my dad told me, he said never hit a woman, I asked what if she hits you and he told me if you are a man then take it. I think you can always walk away that is what I did. | |

Posted: 5/7/2005 8:42:21 AM | If a man hits me and it is not a playful slap. I do not feel justified in hitting him back. I would rather call the police and press charges.
Why risk it? That person could have rage issues, a gun !!!
If a woman hits a man, man should also call police and file charges. Two wrongs don't make a right.
Urban is welcome to his opinions. They do not bother me because I know I am right:) lol | |

Posted: 5/7/2005 8:42:57 AM | I agree with ontario woman. Unless she's defending herself from actual attack, I find a woman hitting a guy (especially if it's because she thinks she can do it with impunity) unacceptable. I had a gf who was a little violent this way (she was a spoiled brat and had to "win" at everything) and I got out of that relationship in a hurry, before I was tempted to knock her out in retaliation. 
It's not okay for anyone to use violence against another person. | |

Whilst, I am not condoning men hitting women, unless the circumstances warrant this, what do people think about the idea that despite this new age of 'equality' between the sexes, that women can still hit / slap men and get away with it, with many people finding it funny that the man has been hit.
No one has a right to lay a hand on another person. Unless you are doing so in self defense. If you are in an argument with somone you simply turn around and walk away from it before physically hitting someone. No one has a right to touch my body. | |

Posted: 5/7/2005 8:44:43 AM | Let me get this straight, I'm confused.
Once again, a regular pops up in a thread, insults the original poster for inserting a thread she doesn't aprove of, and you are backing her up?
Suck up points for you!
It all boils down to "Freedom of speech".
I guess it should be revised to "Freedom of speech as per Misredress, bizzie, and all of the other followers." | |

Posted: 5/7/2005 8:45:19 AM | It's never okay to hit anyone, period. I don't hit my son. I don't want him seeing a man hit me, and heaven help any man who tried. It's not ok for women to abuse men either.
Other than to save your life, there are always good alternatives... how about walking away? | |

Posted: 5/7/2005 8:47:20 AM | | Gezzz blunite. She broke your nose? Your dad meant well but that is not what he meant. I am glad you walked away. Hope you are ok. | |

You contradict yourself. You insulted the people on this thread for responding... yet you continue to post.
@bizie
Excellent response!

Posted: 5/7/2005 9:06:03 AM | | Yeah, I am fine, as a boy growing up in the country it was natural to get into fights, so I had been in my share, she was never able to hurt me physically like a man would, but emotionally I guess it hurt worse than physically, but I think what my Dad was saying is (and I don't want to get into what sex is stronger or weaker here cause women are very strong in different ways) that men are just naturally stronger than women and as a man you don't need to get into a physical confrontation with a woman so I just walk away. | |
