Women fought for the right to be treated as equals among men. Then why can't men hit women when they are hit first? You may answer it like: "Women are weaker, men can hurt them". Why don't women tend to get in trouble when they hit a guy? Its okay to slap a guy but the first time any guy hurts one little hair on a womens head he gets hauled off to jail. Why is it so socially accepted that women are aloud to hit whoever they want? Anyone have any ideas?

i dont think its right for a man to hit a woman first but i dont think a women should hit a guy either and i think if a women hits a guy a guy has the compleate right to hit back but in reson....like if a girl slaps a guy once he cant turn around and beat her till she bleeds but he can defenetly hit her back....once

Its a societal problem that needs to change, whereas the majority of womens rights that women fight for are slightly more concrete, i.e equal opportunity in the workplace, right to vote, etcetera. It is quite a bit more difficult to overturn the societal idea that men should not strike women. This idea is, by the way, backed up scientifically, as women are, in general, physically weaker than men. Although admittedly there are exceptions to this very general rule.

Well honestly, I don't believe that whole "men can't hit women" thing. Probably because I can beat the crap out of my dad (who's very strong, mind you. i'm just strong, too). Really, I think hitting and fighting in general is wrong. If someone hits you, no matter their sex, don't hit back, because it just makes things worse, and actually shows how weak and weak-minded you really are. Violence is never the answer. <img src=

that is really silly... i mean to confuse the whole punching thing with what feminism is. Firstly, women are not alLOWed to hit whoever they want. But it is connected with the whole patriachal machoism thing... a girl hits a guy... the guy wouldn't fight back because it would make him look weak. it's a cultural thing that women are perceived to be weaker, so if she hits a guy, supposedly it wouldn't hurt. So why fight back? what a wuss... did some girl kick your ass?? then go ahead and fight back if you think you deserve revenge... be sure to use the same force.. and if you get dragged in court, use your whole 'equality theory' as an arguement.. women hurting men?? come on.. that is such a minority that you should even complain about it. women do not get more rights than men.. women's rights are not all about being battered wives, so thats y i said previously that you were being silly... women are deprived.. and it is not from the law but from culture...
I think that's a bit harsh, don't you? What if he did get his "ass kick by a girl"? Would that be so out of the norm? What is the "norm" anyway? I don't think that would make him weak or the chick abnormally strong.

For me, its simply the difference between a hit and abuse. If a woman hits a guy, yeah the guy has the right to hit back. Self-defense and all. But think about it, a woman slaps a guy. The guy shouldn't be an idiot and knock the woman out. Same applies vice versa. Abuse is totally different, which is where the law steps in. But yeah, the whole socially right vs socially wrong does make women a weaker sex. but i've taken on guys in sports (soccer and such) and I hated my friends when they took it easy.

Women are not the weaker sex in any way. I do personally know quite a few girls that are physically weaker than me though. I also know a lot of guys that are physically weaker than me too. I would never hit anyone from those groups, but if I found myself toe-to-toe with someone on my physical level (guy or girl wont matter) & they wanted to kick my ass & could, let it be known that I will defend myself. I believe in fare fights.

I don't think anyone should be hitting anyone. The problem is that some girls think they can hit guys but the boy can't hit them back. And some guys think it's okay to hit a girl but the girl can't hit him back. I don't agree with violence at all.

men and women have equal rights in the law but when it comes to our culture females are considered by many the weaker sex...thats why men and women are equal but it's wrong to hit a woman in our society.

Men shouldn't hit women. Pure and simple. If they do, they should be locked up with the other scum.

Me and my friends joke about it, but in seriousness, we don't like it. I don't think anyone should hit anyone.

There's a girl who works in the same store as me. She was hired after me, and is being paid a dollar over what I'm being paid. She does not have work ethic. She does not have experience. She has large breasts. Things are not equal. It would be [painfully] biased to say they were.

Another thing taht's always bugged me, women are NOT minorities. It's pretty much always 50/50. In fact, I think right now it might actually be 51/49 with the women being the 51.
