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. 🙂

Haven't watched those videos cause I dont feel like it but personally I don't seek to hit women, i do not create scenarios where I would plausibly need to hit women, and I don't argue with women either.

So really the only way i could possibly be in a place where hitting a woman becomes a real option for me would be if some irate woman has cornered me and was either unable or unwilling to be reasoned with.

And if by some crazy twist of fate this were to happen, I would manhandle her 🤷🏽‍♂️. No shame about it either. I would do my best to avoid actually striking her but if she had a weapon or I couldn't get a hold of her for some reason then yeah I may hit her too.

It is hard to think of a realistic scenario where I would be so threatened by a woman that i would have to fight her but if we are assuming, for the sake of argument, that that is the case then i mean well yeah I will fight to win. It shouldn't take much; I shouldn't have to hurt her too bad because after all she is a woman and I am stronger than most men of my same height and weight much less a woman. But yeah I'd do what i have to and only what I have to.

TL;DR: if i had to, and i mean really really had to, then yes I would and i dont care if that is right or wrong. I dont see that ever happening though.

@SW-User Pretty spot on. Its fairly easy to subdue a woman without striking her unless she has a weapon or is a Brittany Griner type. As tall and fit as she is if you are a slightly above average strength man as you say then you could probably easily hold even Brittany even though she is a top athlete.
Men are just stronger.

@SW-User You should have watched it though. It's very interesting. 🙂

Not always. In any particular case the woman might be stronger than the man and hitting her might be the only way he can defend himself. Those who say a man should NEVER (there can be no exceptions to 'never') hit a woman must expect men to just allow a women to beat them to death.

@Sharon Yes of course I was speaking in general. There are always exceptions to every rule. And my comment was in favor of everyone including men being allow to defend themselves physically.

My point was that hitting a woman is so rarely ever required because men are stronger in 95% of cases and the situation can probably be deescalated without a man physically hitting her.

The point is, there are no exceptions in that statement.

@Sharon You are expecting me to speak like a scientist writting a paper. Why are you arguing? I said in 3 different ways that I agreed with you but you want to squabble over minutia?
In everyday conversation language exact precison of every word is not the norm in daily conversation. There are nuances and I already further clarified with you just in case to avoid misunderstanding but now still you are coming back to remind me that my initial language was not exact?
What is the point of this?
