If two humans are fighting, then the other one has the right to defend themselves.

I was raised to never throw the first punch.


Except spanking your child, of course. Cool

As self defense, sure. If a woman is holding a gun on me or my child, I would fully expect my husband to knock her the eff out. Or if a woman hits a man, he should be allowed to hit her back.

But I'm not okay with a man hitting a woman because she spilled his beer, or because the eggs got cold, or because he thinks she's cheating on him. Any reason, really, other than to defend himself. Same thing goes for women, too. I'm not okay with women hitting men either, unless it's self defense.

It's never okay to hit someone you love, unless you absolutely need to defend yourself.

It isn't. The topic said something about "a man and a woman", so I kinda assumed we were talking about domestic relations. Sorry. Obviously, I don't think it's okay to hit people.

Not EVERYBODY! Just most of the people. And as for gun totin Americans- I'm one of em. I pack heat everywhere I go (legally). It is always within reach. You knock on my car window saying 'get out the car man', you will be sadly mistaken. My job is to protect the innocent. Not treat the bad guys with love and respect!

Sorry for the rant- another shooting of an innocent person this weekend in the Walmart parking lot. When will people stop being idiots?

I don't think two people should ever hit each other. period. Even strangers. However, i am surely not going to stand around and let someone beat me up ar beat up a friend or loved one. I prefer to fight with words. This is why my husband and I are in martial arts together. It serves as great domestic violence prevention! Wink

Just a possibility of being hit by a man because of such reasons is disgusting. If you just have suspicious about that, you should leave your man/woman in that moment. Woman often mentally attack men but the reply should be much different that actually hitting someone.
