I mean upper, cut, jab, flying kick ,bam ! and there goes one of your teeth. Everyone in the community is gathered there ,the macho men ,looking down at you with scorn for letting down the specie, your friends are gathered ,but silently praying this will be over soon and the female liberals ,cheering on their prize fighter happy to see some sort of retribution for the years of abuse that women have gone through at the hands of men. What would you do ? Bearing in mind that you are a man who has been taught by your parents to never hit a lady ,would you break that vow now ? Or would you play the role of prince valiant and take the onslaught (cant see myself doing that ), or would you run away and run the risk of being labeled “a chicken “ for life ? This is also a question for females too ,would you look down on a man who retaliated in these circumstances ? What would you tell your son or brother ? What if the retaliation went over board because you were trying to mend your wounded ego ,who would you blame at that point ?.One other thing should you fight her as a man or be mindful of the fact that she is a woman and just try to stop her in her track by one incapacitating blow or really pound the life out of her ?

What a difficult subject with so may alternatives to choose from.If a woman attacks a man he should report her for assault.If he wants do defend himself he should,if a woman takes a man on she loses her rights as a woman.There has been a lot on the tv highlighting the plight of the battered man and they are opening hostels like they do for battered women who ever does it is wrong,and there is nothing to be ashamed of not all men are violent ,like you say they don't expect anyone to batter them let alone the woman they love,plus like you say you have been brought up to beleave hitting a woman is wrong,quite rightly to i might add.This is a big problem for men and it goes on a lot as what man would own up to being hit by his female partner but they should no one will laugh at them.xx

It is difficult but you have taken on this subject quite well .You have highlighted all the possible ways to handle this situation and you have done so objectively .Like you rightly mentioned many not all men are violent and some of them have been battered and abused.I guess sometimes you juts have to forget all that you have been taught by your parents and let self preservation kick in.And perhaps the highlight of this response is that a woman who takes on a man reliquishes her right to be treated as a woman.Thank you for your answer Suzzy

ha ha, that a pretty thought provoking one..! It is unacceptable to hit a girl , especially in public in India too. I would probably dodge till i can & then give back as hard as i can. After all it's girls who are demanding equality in every sphere of life. Running is certainly not an option. this will be the most un-manly thing to do in the eyes of the society. After hitting back i certainly have to run away from the crowd/mob .

Oh my are you saying that hitting girls is like ingrained in the constitution or against the law .Not that its acceptable here either but its not like a policy ,its against the law.Lol ,I like what you said about equality ,if they want equality I suppose then they must expect to be trteated equally in this situation.Yes running is not an option lol.Thank you for responding

As a woman I have always believed that if I put myself into a man's situation and lower myself to physically fight with a man I should expect to be hit back by that man. I'm not saying that a man has the right to hit a woman simply for speaking or getting angry. However if I approach a man and hit him I DO expect to have him HIT me back. I don't expect anyone to stand there and just take a beating. Everyone regardless of gender has the right to defend themselves.

Forgive me for crashing this discussion. I think a man should let a woman hit him ewice and between the third hit, he should say if she hits him again , he will hit back.I think it is unfair that a woman can hit a man over and over and nothing happens to him but if he hits her once, he goes to jail.

Hi ronnyb! If my brother is being beaten up by a woman and then there are many female liberals cheering, then I will surely tell my brother to fight back and give her a blow that will send her to the moon. haha..If they are liberal women then I don't think they will mind being treated as equals. They wouldn't mind being treated the way they treat men. If they are capable of dishing out things like that then they should also be prepared to accept to be dished out just the same. I believe in the saying "Treat others just as you like to be treated". Just my thoughts. Take care and blessings to you! lovelots..faith

Hello my friend ronnyb Ji, As far as my experience goes, it has niether happened with me , nor with my hubby, within four walls of my house or outside. Clapping take place with both hands. Why should it happen to anyone. Everyone should remain within their shoes. Let these negative thinking may not crop up in my mind. In case, I have to imagine, let me imagine some positive thinking. May god bless you nad have great time.

Hello, Ronnyb. This is a delicate situation. There is no way to beat a woman. No matter if she has started it, once you hit her, you are the villain and people will all blame you. Too much trouble. Society over protects women when they are wrong and let them down when they are in need. I have to say: I have been already slapped by girls, even some smaller than me, and I did nothing. My friends laughed, that happened about two years ago, after all had passed. But I didn't care too much, I couldn't do anything anyway. But now, things would be different. I'd not hit a woman back. But yes, I'd lift her by her neck and immobilize her. I wouldn't punch nor do anything. I'd just throw her in the ground and immobilize her. I'm not a punch bag. Respectfully, Munhozmib.

In my entire life, I have been unfortunate not to witness a woman beating up a man. The most common scenario is the other way around. But if ever I see one, the first thing that comes into my mind is that the man probably did something so terrible for the woman to get mad at him like that to the extent of beating him up. I guess the man should just make an effort to calm the woman down to save themselves from additional embarrassment. But if he did something so wrong, I guess he deserves the beating and just nurse his wounded ego later. Some guys really deserve a dose of that.

I'm a female. I'm independant and pay my own way. That said, I've never had much use for women libbers. If the girl is hitting the guy, darn straight he should punch her! She started it! Just cause one is a woman doesn't give one the right to hit someone else. You do, you get what you deserve. No, he shouldn't pound the life out of her, just like if it was a guy he shouldn't keep pounding if the guy is down. I've seen a few domestic squabbles where it's the woman always beating on the man. If he hits her, he goes to jail. But she can pound on him constantly, and that's just a slap on the wrist. Not fair!

this is an instance when celebrity stories can have a lesson or two. in the case of chris brown and rhianna it would had served many people better if he just walked away.

i think a man stopping a woman from beating him up without having to hit her back is a lot more macho than thinking you have to actually beat a lady, even without those women liberals. flying kick? hold the legs, keep it up and sweep her off her feet. jab? hold her hand and keep it close to you, her body and all. i don't mind seeing a guy 'defeating' a lady in a man-to-man combat, as long as it doesn't involve hitting the lady in the face and kicking her midsection. ...from a lady's point of view.

Now a days, people say women and men are same though I believe this situation is very rare. I don't think I hvae seen any of it in my life so, It would be difficult for me to answer. I am not a black belt or a boxer or a wrestler. So, if that lady is one of them then I would only opt to call the police. If she is none of them then I would like to try and stop that women from what she is doing. I mean every matter can be sorted out by having a chat or two, isn't it?
