    Just wondering do people think it's ok for a woman to slap a man across the face, now I mean a full force slap in anger.

    Do people believe its as bad as a man slapping a woman.

    If you seen a situation of a woman slaping a man what would you think?

    A man should never hit a woman, unless she hits him first.

    If you hit someone, whether you're a man or a woman, you should expect to be hit back.

    It's pretty much genderless though, I mean, you should never hit anyone. Gender only really comes into it because generally a man hitting a woman is someone hitting someone weaker than them.

    Well it's very far from ok. But if it happens no man should hit the woman back imo.

    Most of the time I think it's horrible and complacent for women to hit men. Its completely unfair, they can give their best shot without any repocussions as the man just has to stand there and take it.

    If I hit a lad then I would be fully prepared to get a slap back, you can't just hit someone and expect to get away with it.

    I know there's the tendency for people to be all "LOL wimmin hitting men" but I've heard some horror stories of men being abused at home by women so it's a big problem.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,259 ✭✭✭downwithpeace


    No it's not, as a man I know I'll never raise a hand to a women in anger and I would like to think I deserve the same.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,030 ✭✭✭✭Chuck Stone


    I punched a Traveller girl in the jaw once when I was a youngfella.

    They were thumping us (3 lads v 3/4 girls about the same age) and we were walking away but they kept slapping one particular friend and he started crying so I just boxed the most aggressive one in the jaw and then she looked at me kinda shocked and burst into tears.

    We legged it then.

    Cool story bro?

    Agreed, unless it's a sustained attack then self defence is allowed.

    If it's a once off slap walk away.

    This is what I taught, I taught it was not ok, and I started to 2nd guess my self, recently my brothers girlfriend gave him a slap, and a very hard one at that, as it left a nice mark across his face for a few hours, and I was shocked at her behaviour, but I seemed to be the only one of my family that was shocked, and the only one who told him that she was wrong.

    I just could not understand my families logic, esp since my family know that he is in a very controlling relationship.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,503 ✭✭✭Riddle101


    I wouldn't deem it appropriate for a woman to hit a man, and vice versa. They should know that if they're willing to give it out, they should expect to get it back as well. Now I'd proberly be a lot more calmer if I was slapped by a woman, because depending on what kind've slap it was, and why she did it i'd proberly just forget about it. But other guys wouldn't be as friendly me, and could give the woman a right out smack in the mouth. They're really gambling with their luck if you ask me.

    I think it is wrong to hit women unless your life is in danger. There are other options, the majority of men should be well able to restrain a violent women, with or without the help of others. I don't think its right for anybody to hit another human being, but you have to take some things into consideration and understand why there are such strong laws against men hitting women. While women can slap a man in the face, not a nice experience by any stretch of the imagination, unlike a woman's strike against a male, a man who strikes at a woman has the capacity to severely injure her and land her in hospital. Either restrain a woman if she is been violent and abusive, or just walk away.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,525 ✭✭✭miller50841


    If every body wants to be treated equal and the way everthing these days has to be politically correct it is very wrong but always remember you are better just to walk away unless its not a viable option. Women don't hit men and Men don't hit women clear I hope


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,568 ✭✭✭candy-gal1


    depending on the situation and what hes done to deserve it,aka he has severly hurt the girl, aka cheating on her with no remorse then treating her like an idiot for it,insulting for no reason etc etc a slap in the face from a woman to a man is fine tbh, anything more is pushing it.
    and imho, and i may be slated for this i know, then the exact opposite is fine too


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,219 ✭✭✭woodoo


    Movies and Soaps have alot to answer for in making an angry woman slapping a man across the face seem almost normal.

    So if the man is hurt by a woman cheating etc he can whack her across the face?

    Slippery slope.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,676 ✭✭✭✭kowloon


    People shouldn't hit each other. Nobody should be expected to stand and take a beating either. Gender is irrelevant.

    People should be trated equally..... but.....

    if my wife slapped me..... I would not slap her back.

    if my wife belted me one......I would not hit her back.

    if a traveller girl/slag type girl(?) slapped me....I'd say she wasn't a real traveller/slag.

    if a traveller girl/slag type girl(?) belted me one..... I'd exit if possible or deck the bítch and then exit.

    if a woman in between my wife and a traveller girl/slag type girl(?) slapped me...... I'd like to think I'd walk away ( drink dependent somewhat).

    if a woman in between my wife and a traveller girl/slag type girl belted me one...... (depending on drink taken)....judgement call.

    none of your circumstances "deserve" a slap or dig or punch.

    Yes and no.

    Some films see a woman smack a fella, followed by the woman being decked by the fella - the soaps......not so much.

    yes, if its done to delibrately hurt the person, no apologies, nothing, then tbh if i ever did something like that, which im hoping im never that bad, id expect whoever i was going out with to slap me. thats all thats acceptable though, theres one window to do something like that and then its done imho.
    ive never had the opportunity to do this, as ive only been told what had happened after the event therefore it wouldnt be right and tbh look a bit physcho to do anything like hit or slap now.

    I think the two people in a relationship like you describe need to do a lot of growing up and copping on as humans if this is how they would conduct themselves.

    Man slaps me = he'll be picking his teeth off the floor for about 4 weeks


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,194 ✭✭✭saa


    I think everyone I know including myself would think it was disgusting for a woman to hit a man even if he cheated, its the kind of thing peddled by hollywood and the soaps that kinda says yeah a little slaps acceptable.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,817 ✭✭✭myflipflops


    Is it not a natural reaction to defend yourself/hit back when hit?

    Never even been close to being in a fight off the sports field but I would have thought instinct will kick in for a lot of people.


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


    People are such pussies these days. If anything, more slaps should be doled out to everyone, everywhere.

    Everybody hit everybody!

    couldnt agree more tbh

    just to clarify ive never actually hit or slapped someone like that, but i also cant say i havent wanted to, especially in certain extreme circumstances where verbal abuse and harrasment after the event actually happened and ensued for no reason whatsoever

    yeah i know, turn the other cheek etc, and thats what i have done, its a hard and sometimes frustrating thing to do though

    You equate a traveller girl to a 'slag type girl'?

    That's racist, you sir are worse than a woman beater

    Nobody should hit anyone just in anger. Shows they've lost the ability to mentally process and try to diffuse the situation. Hitting is fair enough in self-defence unless they're strong enough to push the person who started it away or are barraged by hits.

    I know it doesn't make sense, but I would think less of a woman hitting a man, as a once off type thing. I think the idea is common that if a man hits a woman that he's going to start beating her up, whereas if a woman hits a man, it's a one off, and he probably deserved it. (not that that's relevant)

    I wouldn't hit back, but would definitely grab the offending arm, whip it behind her back and then hold her against the wall as I calmly point out why hitting men is a bad idea.
    But if some psycho woman is going all out hitting me, i still dont think I would hit her, more restrain. Unless she had a weapon.
