From someone who is probably shorter, doesn't build up muscle the way men do, and is not accustomed to fighting? From that kind of person you expect men to be trained to defend against? W O W. That is all I have to say.

I say that men should NOT have to defend themselves against "someone who is probably shorter, doesn't build up muscle the way men do, and is not accustomed to fighting" to begin with, and if "someone who is probably shorter, doesn't build up muscle the way men do, and is not accustomed to fighting" feels that it's perfectly fine to physically assault any human being, they deserve what ever they get.

I'm not a tall built man, but if I walk up to a man that is twice my size and make the decision to assault him, It's only fair that he should do the same. Unlike some women, I would never hit a man twice my size and then play victim and get upset if/when he hits me back...

Weight is of no concern. From your mouth you admited women aren't equal.

Okay, I think I get it. Even children.

Oi vei. Just when I think I've heard it all...

They want equality only when they benefit from it.

Can you instill it into the crazed harpies they will meet along the path of life? You can't prepare them for such madness.

Okay, I think I get it. You're pulling a stawman's argument. We aren't talking about a child. We're talking about a grown adult that should know that hitting is wrong. We're talking about grown women who are acting like men.

Congrats, your post is indecipherable.



Humans, including even the lowly male, have a right to defend themselves.

So if a little girly is bent on injuring me in any way.......too bad, I will do my best to defend myself using violence:

No, I was politely saying that your statement screams misogynist out loud and in neon.

This is the example I always use in this context as well. Assaulting someone who is physically superior to you is simply unwise (well, assaulting anyone is unwise, but assaulting someone bigger than you is especially so). You don't know what their response will be. If they are capable of hurting you, it's probably not very smart of you to assault them. I certainly wouldn't punch a bear. If I did, I'd be an idiot.
