POLL: Should a man ever hit a woman?

Page 5 - Seeking answers? Join the AnandTech community: where nearly half-a-million members share solutions and discuss the latest tech.
If there is a need for me to hit a girl, yes, I would. But under "normal" circumstances, where there is no physical threat to myself or anyone else around me, I would not *dare* hit a woman.
 
*puts on his wifebeater* hell yeah, I'll beat the living daylight out of them...after I beat the crap out of you for another stupid poll.
 
well, if anyone was threatening the life of my family or friends, i wouldn't think twice about hitting them.......man, woman, animal, whatever.

Not even if the woman is coming at him with a knife or other deadly weapon?

When I say no, I'm refering to a man just hitting a woman for no reason. For instance if they get into an arguement and he hits her or if out of jealousy he hits her. If anyone, including a woman, is coming at someone with a deadly weapon that I definetly think they should use all means to protect himself.

 
Never, under any circumstances. Ever. Even if the woman is 10' tall, can bench 2000lbs, and is on a raging PMS rampage, destroying everything in site. But of course that's not even possible. No woman is 10' and can bench 2000lbs. 😉

No one should hit anyone.

The only time you can hit someone is in self defence, regardless if it is a man or woman, if everything else fails fight back as a last resort.

simple as that
 
I think you should treat everybody the same, which means *if* you would hit a man, you should also hit a woman in the same circumstance

same goes for race. the only way to stop sex/race related descrimination is by forgetting about differences and realizing that other people are just like you
 
For those who need it.


ever

adv 1: at any time; "did you ever smoke?"; "the best con man of all time" [syn: of all time] 2: at all times; all the time and on every occasion; "I will always be there to help you"; "always arrives on time"; "there is always some pollution in the air"; "ever hoping to strike it rich"; "ever busy" [syn: always, e'er] [ant: never] 3: (intensifier for adjectives) very; "she was ever so friendly" [syn: ever so]


 
If anyone hit me (man or woman) I'd hit them back. Why should it be any different for a man or a woman?

Now if I was to do the hitting first, I would most definitly not hit a woman.
 
I think there are circumstances where a man should be allowed to hit a woman like in self-defense. I hate it how women will hit men knowing they can get away with it. The woman might end up in jail for a few hours but she will still have all her teeth. 🙂

its alarming to see teh no of ppl who believe its ok to hit a lady

They're just voting "yes" to skew the poll. I'm not sure there are that many stooooooopid members here that think it's OK to do so. Then again, I might be wrong.

Why are women exempt of getting hit? It basically gives the woman the liberty to do whatever the hell she wants. If, say, a woman were hitting me, why he hell shouldn't I hit back? Should I just sit there and take the abuse because she's a girl?

It's funny, becuase I have actually almost come to blows with a woman.

We were playing flag football and I made a bit of a cutting remark towards her (in good fun). She took it personal and, after a couple of plays, started coming at me and pushing me. Everyone jumped in to break it up and cooler heads prevailed, but I wouldn't have thought twice about punching her right in her ugly grill if she wanted to fight. I have the right to defend myself, regardless of the sex of the person that is threatening me.
 
I said yes, but, only if that women really deserves it, like, say, if she serves the food cold or something.

J/K!

I'd vote no, but, there's always an exception to the rule. Like, the nanny who shook the baby to death... she deserves a good beating. IMO.



 
I answered no even though I don't think that's the true answer. TuxDave said what I was thinking.

I once saw a teenage girl slap my mother (I was also a teen at the time) and without thinking I slugged her in the face, knocking her flat to the ground... and I'd do it again... sometime whether the person is a male or female makes no difference.
