    If you wouldn't hit a Woman, would you hit a Transsexual?

    Depends on the transsexual.

    How burly are they?


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,238 ✭✭✭humbert


    Generally no, if I felt threatened, hell yeah.

    Equal rights, one punch at a time. \o/


  • Hosted Moderators Posts: 3,807 ✭✭✭castie


    Them and guys with glasses are open for punching!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 18,239 ✭✭✭✭WindSock


    Oh If only equal rights meant equal ability to weather a punch.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 32,865 ✭✭✭✭MagicMarker


    I wouldn't hit a woman (or man for that matter) if they are close to me. Some randomer acting the bollox and leaving me no choice and i mean NO choice? Fúck em in the ear!

    Pah. were living in post feminist times.


    Why is it don't hit women?
    Why isn't it don't hit people unless in self defence etc?


    I read a letter to the Galway advitiser where a woman complained about being hit by a man in a nightclub and how he wasn't a real man for hitting her as she's a woman. FFS, I doubt the woman is against equality so why is she using that as an excuse? Surely hitting a weaker man would be just as bad.


  • Hosted Moderators Posts: 3,807 ✭✭✭castie


    Weaker men wouldnt bitch :). only reason for not hitting women. Itd be like England winning the World Cup. You would have to listen to it for years!


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,084 ✭✭✭eroo


    OP- familiar with physchiatric wards...?

    :p

    Since when does equal rights entitle us to equal physique?

    Hitting an a weaker person is just as bad, imo

    yes, if you reread my post that is what I said:
    Surely hitting a weaker man would be just as bad.

    I was using the term 'weaker man' as she was claiming that she, as a woman shouldnt be hit by a man. I did "just as bad". Meaning hitting someone weaker is bad full stop. As is hitting someone without a very good reason at all.

    Yes, they're not women.

    Having said that I'm not a punch bag for anyone and I'd hit man or woman given the right circumstances.

    So is hitting a stronger person any better?

    Never got that cliche, "same as pick on somebody your own size".
    They are fair enough if the person attacking insigated the whole thing, but even then it should be
    "dont hit people".
    "dont pick on anybody"

    People shouldnt hit people, end of story. If you hit a person expect to be hit back.

    You should not hit anybody, no matter how big or small.

    I am medium size, should I be allowed go into a gym and start beating the crap out of big hulks and expect them not to hit me back?


    There were punch bags removed from some chemist or store chain recently, dunno if it was here or the UK. It was a "joke" punchbag marketed towards women, you had a place to put a picture of a man and then battered it. Some group that supported men who were domestically abused complained. A surprisingly large % of domestic violence is against men. Yet due to the macho culture etc it is laughed off like "ah the poor fella, did the girl beat you up", so lots probably goes unreported too. If woody allen was given a golf club or iron he could destroy mike tyson as he slept. No store would have even considered the punch bag if the sex was switched.

    Whether or not you would hit a man dressed as a woman is a fair question, but it raises other questions too. Would you hit a woman dressed as a man? How about a hermpahradite wearing nothing and who has only one boob?
    What about two midgets stading on each others shoulders in a large rain coat to make them LOOK like one large man? What if those midgets are women but wearing a mans rain coat?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 16,793 ✭✭✭✭Hagar


    Well it would be pointless trying to give them a good kick in the mebs so maybe I'd go with a good hard pinch.

    Of course not all trannys have to be male to female, I suppose they could be female to male, so I'm back to the good old kick in the mebs. The look on the face would be priceless. Imagine getting kicked in your brand new mebs and you're still paying for them on visa.

    Some of mans greatest unanswered questions there

    yes i'd hit a tranny, give them one from mother nature :P


  • Registered Users Posts: 17,399 ✭✭✭✭r3nu4l


    Windsock, not all transexuals are male to female transitions you know. About one-third (in the UK at least) are female to male. ;)

    So for the guys that wouldn't hit a male-to-female TS would you hit a female-to-male TS?


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,029 ✭✭✭HammerHeadGym


    I've always thought this was such hipocritical bullshit.

    Don't hit women, the poor little things, but you can beat fucking lumps out of any guy you want. My bouncer mate had to get a belt of an ashtray before he refined his position on the punching of chicks. I see no distinction between any of the sexes. If you deserve it, you're getting a smack.

    It was an either or question, really.


    And the question really is aimed at those who are against hitting Women.
    If hitting Women is your thing, then no need to answer.

    (by the way, I think some women deserve a good slap sometimes. me not included :))

    I'll hit anyone under the right circumstances. If your trying to do me physical harm with some form of weapon then your getting it, plain and simple.

    I learned that lesson a long time ago.

    Well to answer your question then :) I don't believe in hitting anybody and have only ever done so as a last resort. :) I've trained in martial arts for years so obviously during training I'd hit people but I really don't believe in hitting people out of anger. That's the point I'm trying to make. :)

    If attacked I'd rather run first, wrestle someone to the ground second, subdue using locks and pain compliance techniques third, kick the living crap out of them only if I had no other choice. I usually talk my way out of these situations...the gift of the gab and all that ;)

    I find that with women a few nasty comments are more hurtful than a smack.
    "OMG, your ass is HUGE."
    "Did you get those shoes in a pound shop?"
    :D
