If a woman hits you do you have a moral right to hit her back?

No one should hit anyone.

I don't know about a moral right, but you certainly have justification to hit her if needed to defend yourself or stop her assault. Best solution, though, is to de-escalate the situation.

Depends. If a woman I care about starts attacking me I just hold her tight considering I'll easily overpower her.

If a woman I don't give a shit about starts hitting me I'll clock her right back because honestly, just because you have tits and a vagina doesn't mean you're immune to my fists.

Don’t just hit her back hold pull back ur fist all way back then with everything you throw ur punch and shout from the top of ur voice FALCONNNN PUNCHHHH!!!!

I want to say yes, he should hit her back, but if he does, everyone freaks out, says he's the villain, and he's the one that's going to be arrested. I hate to say it, but he should just walk away. Honestly, I can't stand women who are act all brave and start beating on a guy, only to crumble, weep, and cry victim like a weak baby the second they get hit back.

I think weight class is more relevant than gender.

Watch this a girl slaps a guy on indian television. Subtitles are included :

No way, don't hit women back pls. It's not classy

Depends where you are.

If a dog bites you do you bite it back?

Absolutely not. You play defense and remove yourself from the situation.

Definitely. And if you'd hit a guy in that situation, but you think women are too weak and sensitive for it, then you're a sexist.

Yes you have absolutely every right to hit her back.

Real men don't hit women!

I'd say.
Depends on the situation.
Walk away usually works.
But there are times to return the favor.
Depends on the situation.
If someone hits, it's also not ok to let them think it's ok.
I'll defend myself, or if needed go a little further.
I don't support abuse in any relationship.

If someone hits you you are legally allowed to defend yourself.

😆

That's good.

Well, that's something. What kind of shop do you own? I honestly thought you were a kid.

India sounds awful, and like I said it was probably better under British control.

So many people all over the world make a nasty habit out of hating white Anglo-Saxons, but it seems that Anglo-Saxons are better at this business of law, and order.

It's not right that you were beaten by a bunch of thugs! That is completely wrong, law and order should prevail. I'm truly sorry that this thing happened to you.

I'm not trying it to hate on India, but the caste system that is practiced in the Hindu religion is wrong too! People should not just ignore the poor, and leave them to lay begging, and dying in gutters. No offense, but there are many things that are practiced in your country that are just plain stupid.

So many people in the world hate America, but we're still the best thing going!

Tell it!

I don't think anyone should hit each other.

What prompts someone to resort to hitting in the first place, man or worman?

What state is that?

He might have liked it. For some reason cops have always been really nice to me! I actually like cops a lot even though I am very pro-marijuana. I mean if I have a problem who am I gonna call, some bleeding heart liberal, or the cops?

When I was in college in Louisiana a cop told me that just touching someone that doesn't want to be touched is assault. He basically poked me on the shoulder, and told me that was assault.

If some piece of shit grabs my ass I should be able to either call the cops, and have him arrested, or beat him. The loser pervert should have no recourse. If I ever see someone assault a pervert I will do nothing to interfere on the part of the pervert.

My dad told me this story about how a bunch of teenagers caught this pedophile who was molesting some kid in a park back in York, Pennsylvania when he was like twelve, back in the late 1940s. The teenagers beat the shit out of the guy, and the one young man's dad was a state trooper so what happened was that trooper showed up with a some of his friends, and later the pedophile woke up in Maryland with two broken arms! I say good riddance! I honestly wouldn't care if it were legal to hunt child molesters for sport, because they are sub-human garbage.

I don't think you should do that unless it's a dangerous, and vicious dog.

No.

I chose other because generally I'd say if a person hits you then they should expect you might hit them back, regardless of anyone's gender. But there are exceptions.

To me it depends on how justified the hit was, and also how hard the hit was - e.g if your wife comes home and finds you in bed with another woman and slaps you in the face, then you have no business punching her in response, that would be wrong in my eyes. Be glad it was just a slap and start saying your apologies.

Just to be clear that goes both ways - if your husband finds you in bed with another man then he might slap you in the face. You don't have the right to hit back in that situation either, I would say.

But most situations aren't that extreme. If she just flips out and starts attacking you then yeah, hit her. You need to be able to defend yourself, just because a woman tends to be weaker than a man it doesn't mean she gets a free pass to be violent towards him.

Good for you. I would probably fight back and get arrested myself.

Fighting isn't good tho and should be avoided if possible.

Usually when it even comes into question about if a man should hit her back, the relationship is pretty unhealthy anyways. Mature adults just do not handle problems by hitting each other.

Of course the media makes it look like the woman is always this passive, quiet, scared victim. In the real world she PROBABLY provokes to a point where anyone would lash out.

I have known abusive couples. More often than not, if you knew them, it would be the man you'd feel sorry for. She is often some cracked-out loud mouth bitch that needs her ass beat.

Oh man, are there other places that are better than Detroit?
