Can u pick a fight to protect your girl friend if a 'villaibn tries to trouble her? Personally I feel my boyfriend would use his brains rather than physical force to protect me. He is very particular about what I wear when we go out to crowded places. Thats because in India, we have a lot of desperate guys who pass vulgar remarks...How would you safe guard your girlfriend/ How would your boyfriend protect you, if you were in such a situation???

There are movies which are based on real life incidents and there are also movies based on fantasy or fiction. A man prepared to fight to protect his girlfriend cannot be found everywhere. Even a trained martial artist may find it difficult to defend himself when attacked by a group of people. A man may try but many would simply bolt off. A true life story. A man walked in a secluded place with his girlfriend. Their path was suddenly blocked by five other men bent on mischief. The wimp ran away leaving his girlfriend. His girlfriend was then gang raped. Many modern men tend to give lip service about protecting their girlfriends. I know of several who gave in for fear of being beaten up. As for me, I would try my best to protect whoever is with me. - rosdimy -

My husband is a very big guy over 6ft1 and quite well built but he is a very gentle guy. We don't really have too many cheeky chaps/"villain types" (hehe that sounds so funny) like you might get in India as it's easier to have open relationships here so guys in general might not behave as desperately when out in public places in the evening. Sometimes we might be in a bar or club and someone comes to chat me up (say if hubby has gone to the toilet or to the bar and I'm left sitting or standing alone for a few minutes) - even if I say I'm married and wave my wedding ring in their face, they still persist and when hubby comes back and I say "well here's hubby" they're usually quite terrified and start apologising profusely but my hubby will shake their hand and say "it's ok, my wife is lovely isn't she?" and put an arm around me protectively and extend his hand to shake theirs. This is so much more civilised that starting a fight and it's never once backfired.

I think that some of the movie are happened in real story and some are it's true story. In my case i don't want that my boyfriend or husband will get in to trouble because of my stupidness so i do behave well and dress right clothes and as long as long i can we always avoid trouble. I do empress with your boyfriends, really smart guy. Happy posting.

I know a lot of dudes who've gotten into fights to protect their girlfriends, and they always get the crap beat out of them. This one dude tried to fight a whole gang for his girlfriend. It was one of the worse beatings I've ever seen. I wouldn't try to fight a guy for a girl unless he physically attacked her because dudes talk junk a lot anyway.
