Is it normal to expect a girl to be hit back if she hits a guy?

MY QUESTIONS:

Do you expect a girl to be hit back if she punches a guy? Even if he's gay or bi?

Was what he did justified or did he go to far?

MY KINDA LONG STORY:

It happened about a week ago I was going out with my boyfriend by tram (public transport). And me being bi and him being gay, we've heard from a lot of people that we do not look like the stereotypical "queer" couple, and have been mistaken for being straight a lot.

3 girls got on half way through our tram ride, and one started flirting with my boyfriend. Usually I'd be mad but I've gotten used to this and he brushes them off anyway telling them he's gay. But then she made a snide remark saying "you don't sound like a fag you don't have to lie".
He suddenly lost it and told her to fuck off. She reacted by shouting at him and cussing him out and taunting him to hit her saying "what you going to do about it hit me!?"

I tried to separate them by leading my boyfriend down to the other end of the tram.
But she kept following us and started cussing me out too. She then spat on me and proceeded to kick whoever she could but mostly got me since I was still trying to separate them.
I was planning to get us off the next stop, but it was too late my boyfriend had punched her in the face. She hit the ground but she wasn't bleeding just crying.

The tram was stopped and locked down for a while because someone had called the cops on us. We had to later explain what happen and my boyfriend volunteered to go to the station alone and took the blame.

Thanks to a witness he just has to take anger mangement classes and pay a fine for disrupting the public. Surprising the girl didn't press any charges.

Also I know were guys but no one gave a shit when she started getting physical(she was kicking us!)! People react differently when the genders are reversed. Someone could have gotten her off us so it wouldn't have exculated to a punch.

    My favorite explaination of this come from the fabulous Bill Burr. He's quite funny and knows what's up.

    I say, she deserved it. She started it with her ugly remark and you guys tried to remove yourselves from the conflict but she kept instigating. People like that need a knock to the head every now and then. She seems like a real piece of shit.

    • Yeah she was a real mental case if you saw it you'd be questioning humanity.
      This girl does not take rejection well.

    She wanted you to hit her because if you did you go to jail because the women ni matter what in this day and age can do no wrong and isn't responsible for her actions, in a nut shell.

    • Yeah I like to see the day when we can hit back if they hit first so everyone can keep their damn hands to themselves.

        There isn't nothing like man-handling a woman when she gets out of line. Sometimes a mans gotta do what a mans gotta do...

        • Yep can't be chivalry for those who don't deserve it.
          "If they're nice to me I'll be nice to them"

            If a woman is man enough to act like a man she's man enough to be treated like one. That's the way i see it.

    That lady was stupid. People shouldn't start a fight unless they're prepared to get hit back. I really don't think your boyfriend should've been punished. Also, Is it weird that I find women like that funny? They start beating on a guy thinking he won't hit back and when he does hit back, her whole "I'm so tough" front suddenly turns to tears? Maybe I'm cruel for thinking that person got what they deserved. lol

    • Haha, no don't think your cruel at all.
      If genders were reversed everyone would agree no questions asked.
      They even glorify wemon slapping and chucking drinks on guys in the media, some times for stupid reasons. But its all wrong if a guy does it for some reason.

      Her friends were even laughing at us then ended up in tears along with her. There's some thing wrong with those girls...

      Strange fetish...but I'm a let you do you.

    Well, yeah, you should expect to get hit back. HOWEVER...the law only allows for a certain level of self defense depending on where you live and what the threat is. So on a personal level you can justify hitting back but legally it's a different territory.

    • Really? Well I guess by the action that was taken on us. Our laws are pretty bias then.

        You have to be reasonable. If a person who poses no real threat to your well-being, do you really think you should have the right to beat them to a pulp or kill them?

        • No, but no one really knows how they'll react to a situation till it happens to them. And one punch compared to her constant kicking amd spitting seems about fine.

          Could have been worse.

    I'd say the punch was self defence. Bitch got what she deserved, your boyfriend shouldn't have been punished for that at all in my opinion :P

    • Yeah they assumed he started it because they judge people on gender first before asking questions, he's also pretty tall.
      Just glad he didn't spend any jail time.

      Yeah I agree I see it as self defense and an eye for an eye.
