i think it was justified. nobody is above a little physical contact. if she PUNCHED YOU AND BUSTED YOUR LIP OPEN, i couldn't fault you for hitting back.

I am a firm believer that there exist plenty of cases where it would be right to punch a woman. This is not one of them.

Can you furnish with an example of such a case?

I think if my life or any member of my familys was in danger to any degree....I could happily hit a woman....

There was a good thread about this topic a few months back.

As for examples, if a woman was trying to stab me, she would be hit. Someone in that thread was attacked by a nutter in a bar who tried to glass him for no reason. Obviously punching here is also fine.

When a woman attacks you, the idea is to do what is necessary to end the situation. If she has a weapon then punching her is necessary. If she is half your size and unarmed there is no reason you should have to do this.

Equal rights can't just take in the good.

IMO her gender is incidental. What is relevant is whether his and her strength are in the same ballpark. The closer that is to being true, the more justified he was in hitting her.

Sorry, I didn't realise there was a universally accepted 'idea' for situations like these.

If a woman is 'big and 'ard' enough to start trying to bottle people, she is similarly 'big and 'ard' enough to get a good beating.

FWIW, I think the guy in that thread just skimmed her pretty hard into a pool table.

You guys aren't acknowledging the main factor.. this being it was his natural reaction to being punched in the face, not a planned attack. He didn't get punched and then think, "I'm gonna beat up a woman."

If he got hit, then chased her down and smacked her, sure, be ashamed.. but a good punch to the face will make almost anybody swing back instantly before realizing it's a chick.

Yes, I said if she has a weapon you should punch her. A bottle counts.
