I had a waitress once who claimed I was stealing her tips as the service bartender and cashier for the tickets in the restaurant. I told her that the reason she didn't have much in the jar was because she was an awful waitress.

She escalated the disagreement from there and I tossed all the tickets in her general direction (hence the only physical part of it) and left the scene and told my boss to fire me on the spot, otherwise she would be a real thorn in her side. I've never stolen anything from anyone.

She charged me with assault and failed to show up in court, likely because her premise was total BS. The judge asked "is this an argument about tips?" Case dismissed.

I've beaten a few men since I've been about 20. When I was temping, I had to pass by this place where a bunch of illegals used to wait to get picked up. I got tired of the comments and leering, I went up to them and put up my fists. They laughed at me. I punched one in the face and we scuffled for about five minutes. I underestimated how strong he was, but I wanted it to end. I just kept fighting until he gave up. The others got picked up in a car. They never bothered me again.

Damn, did you live in a neighbourhood full of mushroom houses with short little blue men?

LOL, whatever... "I beaten a few men"... LOL, right... are you a 200 pounder with MMA skills??? Most men can punch you so hard you wouldn't wake up for a week.

I weight under 200lbs. I've got a bit of fluff on me since working out isn't a priority at the minute, but I can hit and am a scraper. The minute I stay down is when I'm dead. Too many people are afraid to stand up for themselves. Some "men" think they can bully men. I'm not taking that from anyone. I'd rather be dead than put down.

She was the gf of a guy in my circlye of friends.

She told me to shut up and that my two cats are fat and ugly. I slapped her in front of three other people.
LOL, if someone said my cat was ugly, I would just laugh because I know she's freaking gorgeous! But no, I've never been in a physical fight with anyone...definitely not a guy!

What does you being white have to do with anything?

Had a female classmate, tall, rangy girl, who at age 14 beat the stuffing out of a male classmate. Now he was sort of a butterball but the way she did it was amazing. She looked like a formally-trained boxer, throwing classy combinations: bing bang boom, bing bang boom; it was over in less than a minute.


Rewind about three years. Classes were large in 1950's parochial school, space was at a premium, so desks abutted in rows of twos. Nuns put this same girl next to me. For no reason whatsoever, she slammed her left fist into my right thigh. Mom always said, "Somebody hits you, you hit 'em back." So I returned the favor with my right fist into her left thigh. She fired back ... We traded four or five shots when she gave up as her eyes started to tear.


Not sure why she started with me in the first place. I was a big lug and arguably toughest guy in both 5th grades.


I don't know if this counts as a mutual physical fight but I marked "yes" on your poll.

Yes, I have had physical fights with men. The last one was outside of a restaurant where I had just eaten with a group of friends in August. There was a man who was dining with a group of people at the same time my friend and I were there. The man was talking very loudly (not angrily, just loudly) inside the restaurant and was irritating multiple parties, including me and my friend. I went over to the man and politely told him be quiet. He was incredulous that someone actually had the gumption to tell him to pipe down. He became very defensive and told me that he was going to do whatever he wanted. He told me to sit down and called me a derogatory name. Needless to say, I tossed his glass of wine in his face.

At that point, the manager of the restaurant, who had witnessed the whole ordeal asked him to leave. He and his party got up to leave with applause from everyone in the place. I finished dining with my friend, paid for our meal, and exited the restaurant only to find him still outside with his friends.

He came rushing over to me like some animal demanding that we finish what I started. His friends tried to hold him back. I walked calmly with my friend toward my car. He slipped their grip and pushed me from the back. I fell, but quickly got up, rushed over and kicked him in the gonads while my friend (also female) essentially slapped him to sleep and then slapped him for sleeping. A cop, who had supposedly driven past, pulled up and demanded that we stop. He asked us for information to take a report. None of us felt like pursuing charges, so no report was taken. We went our separate ways and that was that.
