If a Woman hits a Man can the Man hit back ?

@Reflection2 Fuck that. I'm a physically violent person with a short temper. I'm liable to haul off and punch someone when it's completely uncalled for. Anyone who thinks I'm the victim in that situation is a fucking idiot, and I ought to punch them as well.

@Reflection2 Good point.

@BlueMetalChick To clear you more. I can see a women hit man and feeling bad about her but seeing a man hitting women will make that man ugly to me. Also, a man playing victim, even if he is. Only make him a pussy to a huge majority.

@Reflection2 I think it depends entirely on the capacity to do harm. If a woman who were skinny and weak were to hit a strong tough man, and he hit her back, I would probably disapprove of his actions because the woman had no capacity to do him harm. Sure, nobody likes being hit, but if she's small and physically weak, then the man isn't going to be hurt by her, and so therefore he doesn't need to punch her.

But that being said, I'd feel the same way if a skinny and weak man were to hit a strong muscular man. Even though they're both males, one is weak and the other is strong, and for the stronger of the two to hit the weaker despite that there is little to no chance of him being harmed makes him ugly to me.

But that works in the reverse as well. When I was in community college, one of my classmates was a tall buff German girl named Helga. And one time Helga got into a fight with a man, who was short, fat, and relatively weak. He hit her, but it didn't do much. She barely felt it. But she punched him back, and it knocked out two of his teeth and badly cut his lower lip. In that instance, it made Helga seem like the uglier of the two, even though she was my friend. The guy who hit her had almost no capacity to harm her, and although he was wrong to strike her, she did not need to hit him back.

@sspec You heard, maghermach k ansu! Melts most hearts even if not a victim.
