Agreed.

I would get punished the same right? I would try to restrain myself regardless. I don't think my relationship will in anyway make me believe it's okay to hit one woman more than another.

Okay. I disagree with your interpretation though.

No, No, No. A man could kill or disfigure a woman with one hit, and cause her a lot of pain physically and emotionally. The man is not going to die from whatever a woman says to him. She may cause him a lot of pain, as we know, words can cut to the bone, but we can't start prosecuting over words said in a private argument. It's bad enough as it is, as PC as we've gotten.

We always told our boys not to ever hit a girl, and told my daughter not to ever hit a boy, except under certain circumstances, if she were being attacked physically, etc... It seems quite a few girls in middle school and high school were slapping guys around and giggling about it because they knew they wouldn't hit them back. That infuriated all of us mothers of boys. I told my daughter if she did that, she just might get hit back. Of course I'd be furious, but she knew that could be a consequence of her actions. I told her that, hoping she would think long and hard about thinking she could slap some guy around. Thank goodness she wasn't one to go around hitting anyone.

Remember, everything is case by case. I personally think men who beat and/or verbally abuse their wives are the lowest of low, but I also don't think highly of women who do it either. And yes by nature men are physically stronger than women.
Why women aren't in the NFL. It is just nature. Don't get me wrong my daughter is friggen evil..........lol. I used to say I'll whup anybody who tries to date her now I just feel sorry for em when that day comes. Guys go play football for a reason............girls go do dance crap. Just the way it goes. Why folks......liberals............try and change that I will never know. Just control freaks I guess.

Your right...........although I tell my girl to beat any boy who would ever attack her. I will be getting her a snub .38 I think in November on her sixteenth birthday. All girls should have an iron IMO. They aren't strong enought to fight off perverts and there are a lot out there. Gun evens it up.

As for boys you just don't hit girls. I guess that is now "old school" think. But it is right think. Kids are all crazy now anyway..............girls slapping boys around?? Hey just go home. Is common sense that lost?

So women are equal to men and should be allowed to fight in combat zones, but at the same time a man should never hit a woman because they are weak and fragile. Right. Got it.

I was raised a guy never hits a girl. A combat zone is not hand to hand anymore it's blow everything up. Girl can push a button too.

You can tell a lot of posters here are just dying for a reason to punch a woman out. Pretty nauseating.
