Why can girls hit guys and guys can't hit girls?

[Deleted User] · 2008-12-02 20:23:05

Plenty of girls alot taller and stronger than me so it's not size. Why is it that it's a mortal sin almost? Btw, I've never been hit or hit and don't think I would hit.

Personally, I don't think it's right for girls to hit boys either.

pfft, who says we cant?

nah, it all comes down to equality, or lack thereof. Since all the wimmins burnt their bra's off in the 60s, they've been runnin the place. They pick and choose societies unwritten equality rules to keep the good parts, and upgrade the bad parts. ie, they want to be trated chivalrous like back in the day, and have gentlemen callers, yet they want equal pay and the right to vote, work and drive. (though i dont understand when it became a good idea to let them drive). Oh, and to not get bitch slapped for skipping the dinner/ironing.

A nice chunkey phlemey gollier usually does the trick.

Hitting women and children is wrong. Pighead's not sure about hermaphrodites. He's in two minds about that one.

It stems back to the idea that men are normally stronger than women in most cases.
(I say in most cases - I still remember the 70's and the Russian female shot throwers - boy they were big!)

If the stronger man hit a woman, it was considered that he was taking advantage of the females possible disadvantage to retaliate equally in strength.
That and the fact that it was and still bloomin is, a sign of extreme bad manners (to put it mildly) by any bloke.
If all a bloke can do is hit out - well, least said here about what a lot of others think about him, the better!

As for females hitting females - thats just a nasty cat-fight and is terrible to see.

I'm old or getting there. There's a lot to be said for old fashioned manners.

No girl has ever hit me (well, besides my older sisters when I was a kid. By the time I reached 7, they knew not to mess with me:D).

However, if a girl was to do it, I honestly don't know how I'd react. I guess it all depends on the situation and who the girl is etc. For me, I'd consider a girl to be a puny, glasses-wearing boy. That is, I would never want to hit them, and wouldn't do it if it was just because they were annoyihng me or mildly hitting me. But if it was some slapper going for the crotch or armed in some way etc, I can guarantee you she'd be on the ground within half a second.

I'm a true feminist:D

This was done to death a while back. If I remember correctly, some people put me in the same class as wife beaters because I was arguing the equality argument.

I'll try and dig it up.

Actually, I'm not sure.

Personally, I think neither should hit. It's a sign of stupidity if two people can't sit down and discuss something without hitting or fighting.

Having said that, I was typing an essay once and my then boyfriend kept pushing buttons on my laptop so I laughed and shoved him away and he got annoyed and slapped me loadsa times! Left a handmark and all. That's not right in my opinion!

People just shouldn't (seriously) hit people to begin with.

I think it comes down to manners , I'm seriously not going to let a woman get away with the excuse "I am a lady "if she hits me maliciously for no reason .The case in which I am talking about is a woman with no manners.

I am the last person to resort to violence and people who know me know that but it would come down to common sense.
I they hit me for real they will get one back.

they only want equal rights when it benefits them, i.e. same wages, rights to vote, but when it comes to the hitting it's a whole different scenario.

Pffft..

If a girl slaps me, I might let it go.

If she actually punches me in the face she'll be getting a swift smack back.

that's the thing with feminism... its not about women having equal rights... its about women having MORE rights.

That's what my ex said. Except, I never hit him. Ever. So it's not really the same thing. I don't think either man nor woman should hit anyone. It should be unacceptable from both sides.

Don't think I could hit a girl really, outside of actually having to defend myself (as in I'm not going to allow a girl to smack me repeatedly). But even then I would opt to pin them down really.

Now in the bedroom though that's a different matter.

It's a bit stupid really.

Just because women have smaller feet.

Guys are hitting on me all the time in pubs and clubs.

*Oh, you mean violence and not one-liners?*
