Do u believe it's ok for a man to hit a woman "if" it's self defense ? 🥊

Now some of you may have already seen this video right here recently. Its sad right ? So many people out here giving in to that negative energy that I was talking about before. And some are so sucked in that they cannot help but be this way.
What we have here are two issues that should and could be addressed. One here we have an African American male.
Second we have a Caucasian [b]Latina female. Ok here we go again. You have gender and then you have race.
In this video you see the woman actually hitting the man first. He is the employee, she is the customer. What do you think ?
Did he have a right to hit this woman back ? Or should he have just reported her to the authorities instead. Now you all know how I feel about domestic violence. I do not think it is fine for a man to hit a woman. But I do realize that you can't just run up to people and start attacking them out of nowhere for no reason at all. Some people will hurt you, do you understand me. Are we clear ? Good. What do you think about this ? Do you believe that it is ok for a man to hit a woman if it is self defense only. Yes or no. Explain why please. Best answer wins. 🙂

Okay, I don't know what led up to the part that was caught on camera, but he pushed he into reacting by constantly getting into her space and yelling/sounding threatening. She never really hit him - more slapped him on the arm. He is the one who went all bad ass on her. Sorry, he should have walked off, cooled off and if necessary called for assistance. Bad call on his part.

Now, anyone who is attacked can defend themselves. However, let's get real... how often does a man face a physically superior female that could actually hurt him? Not often. Still, if a man is in fear for his safety, he has every right to fight back. This was not, in my opinion, the case in the video.

Make your mind up. A slap is a hit. If a man slapped a woman, would you say he never really hit her?

@Sharon I made my mind up, he was in the wrong... he wasn't hurt and should have walked off long before the argument got so heated.

Sharon · F

@Ontheroad Then we strongly disagree. She attacked him and expected to be able to do so with total impunity. She was in the wrong and his reaction is entirely understandable.

Ontheroad · M

@Sharon That's fine. I disagree with your thoughts and you disagree with mine - no harm, no foul.

Sharon · F

@Ontheroad It's intereasting that, broadly speaking, men seem to side with the woman and women seem to side with the man.

@Sharon Not surprising - I was taught from a very early age that males (boys or men) never hit a woman for any reason whatsoever. I also know that there are very few women who could, even with a good shot, really hurt me. I cannot imagine (outside of her using some sort of weapon) striking back even if one did.

She was wrong to for striking him, even if it was not much more than a slap to the arm, but he still had no right to attack her. That's just the way I think.

In my view, he had every right to hit her back. I ecpecyt most people, even you, would agree if she had been male.

I find it interesting that you refer to boys and men as "males", but use the word "women" rather than females. Perhaps you think it's OK for boys and men to hit girls.

Ontheroad · M

@Sharon No, I was just making it clear that males of any age... should have done the same with women. My bad there.

Not really, the whole thing was stupid. Men or women (or a mix of) are dumb for letting it get to the point they got to. But yes, if a guy strikes me, then it's game on. Males learn from an early age that if they strike another male they can expect them to strike back.

@Ontheroad

Males learn from an early age that if they strike another male they can expect them to strike back.

Females need to learn the same. If anyone strikes another, they should expect the other to strike back - regardless of their or the other's sex.

BTW - Your error is called a Freudian slip.

Ontheroad · M

@Sharon BTW, it wasn't a Freudian slip, it was just being lazy. It was intentional.

I agree there - everyone "should" know if you strike another, you have a more than even chance of getting stricken back.
