When is it okay to hit a woman???

I know everyone is going to say NEVER.

BUT here is a scenerio!

I went through a very abusive relationship when I was about 18, and the relationship lasted about a year. I was going through a really hard time, and just stayed with him, because I thought i had no other choice. So I took the abuse and I knew it was wrong.

Well a few weeks ago I was at a friends house, and her and her boyfriend got into a BIG FIGHT. It startged with words, then insults, then she reached over and slapped him across the face. He grabbed his car keys and headed for the door. ALL of us who were there were trying to leave the house, it got THAT ugly. Well she was yelling at him that he was making HER friends leave,. and as he was leaving she was punching him in the back, and head. I WAS LIKE OH MY GOD... he tunred around, and pushed her onto the couch, and she has told everyone that he hit her. Well from what I saw he was defending himself, and leaving the house. When he got into his car, she ran outside and started throwing rocks at the car, My husband and I watched in amazement, she was really going nuts. Anyhow he left the house, and actually came to my house later that night. Him and my husband are friends..... The first thing my husband said was, YOU DONT HAVE TO TAKE THAT, and it's wrong, and IF I WAS YOU, I would have knocked her lights out. Well he had scratches on his face, bruises, and I dont know what all. BUT I think he should have pressed charges, and then to my surprise he said he puts up with it all the time. He said he hit her back one time, and he felt so awful because it was so wrong to hit a woman, well my husband told him that he should get out of the relationship (I AGREE) even though she is my good friend. WELL after our friend left - I asked my husband if he really would have hit her, and he said YES... he said if a woman is man enough to hit someone, she is man enough to get hit back. I agree. I mean ---- I would never hit anyone, specailly a man because I would expect him to hit me back. NOW dont get me wrong, I have slapped my husband in the arm when he says something that is mean, or he disagrees with me, but usually just playingly. I have never hit him out of anger. He has NEVER EVER laid a hand on me, and I dont ever fear him. BUT he said that lots of women do hit, and that it's just not talked about! I saw my friend yesterday - and she said that her boyfriend hasn't came back home, and that he called her and said it was over, and she said she was happy cause he hit her in front of all her friends. I just looked at her......... I really hope she doesnt have everyone wh owasnt there beleiving that he beat her, cause thats not the way it was.

Coming from a abusive relationship, I find this situation insulting to me. Since she is a friend and knows how bad I was beaten, I find this to be very insincere... Her boyfriend did not HIT her, although if i was him I would have. I have had my jaw broken, my ribs broke, and a fractured wrist. I have been slapped in the back so hard it knocked the breath out of me, and she is upset cause her boyfriend defended himself.......

Date: 8/26/2002 7:55:00 AM  From Authorid: 40530    It is ok to hit a woman a)in self defense aka she hits you first b) playfully, and not too hard. It is ok to hit a man a) in self defense aka he hits you first b) playfully, and not too hard  
Date: 8/26/2002 7:57:00 AM  From Authorid: 42522    I agree with Crystal Peak.   
Date: 8/26/2002 7:58:00 AM  From Authorid: 15394    Well it is never ok for either sex to hit another, and I do think there is a difference between defending ones self and hitting... IMHO he did the right thing to push her off without hitting, but he is the fool for staying with someone that would do that... male or female abuse is wrong.... I too would have urged him to press charges, as in the least it would have gotten her into anger management class!!!  
Date: 8/26/2002 7:58:00 AM  From Authorid: 55319    He should get out of the relationship. It is not good to hit a woman, and he turned the other cheek. Putting up with that can cause a person to be phisically and emotionally messed up. He shouldn't put up w/ it. He should get out of the relationship... -Destiny
Date: 8/26/2002 8:01:00 AM  From Authorid: 600    It amazes me when people feel the need to hit one another out of anger.......I always told my ex husband that he needed to learn how to fight verbally, not physically. I do think that a woman hitting a man is placing herself in a "man's" shoe, but the rope swings both ways. She shouldn't be hitting him period. I agree that he needs to leave the relationship.  
Date: 8/26/2002 8:06:00 AM  From Authorid: 25828    i didn't read the whole story, but i believe if a woman hits a man, he has every right to hit her back. no one should hit anyone else, and if they do, they should know that they deserve a hit back..should he beat her to a pulp, no, but, he should defend himself, hold her down if he can, and if he can't..pop her a good one so she'll not hit him a gain.  
Date: 8/26/2002 8:20:00 AM  From Authorid: 51744    My husband always tells me if it hits like a man it gets hit like a man. I know my husband will never hurt or hit me And I would never hit him either! I really hope that all works out for him!  
Date: 8/26/2002 8:25:00 AM  From Authorid: 14464    Well I guess I can agree with you on this one. Although my brother has pushed his wife of of him before and she called the police on him. They don't hit each other anymore though. But anyway I feel as long as the guy pushes the girl away and not like to the point she could really get hurt it should be fine. But I really think it is totally wrong for eitehr sex to be hitting each other because then whne they do have kids it will just teach those kids it's ok to hit others.  
Date: 8/26/2002 8:45:00 AM  From Authorid: 58308    I agree with everyone here. This guy should get out of the relationship and he should have filed charges. That was very manly of him to just push her away instead of stooping and hitting her. She needs to sign herself up for anger management classes, if she doesn't get into trouble with her anger first. Hugs! Zeeboette  
Date: 8/26/2002 8:50:00 AM  From Authorid: 25828    i like the way the gigglers husband put it..that is exactly RIGHT.  
Date: 8/26/2002 8:52:00 AM  From Authorid: 19460    hmmm i think if i were him i would have slapped her around, but thats just me. she had no reason to act so childish and attack him and then lie and twist it around to make people feel sorry for her. many men are abused by women and are scared to tell anyone for fear people will think they are wusses, for lack of better word. i think its sad that anyone has to hit out of anger. I had a mean boyfriend once that thought it was nice to punch and shove. i got mixed up in the shuffle and coming from an abusive homelife, thought i was wrong for thinking it was bad he hit me. but now i have a good man who doesnt hit me or even ever get mad at me (which annoys me he doesnt even argue!!! LOL)  
Date: 8/26/2002 11:13:00 AM  From Authorid: 20104    If she was telling you he hit her and you were there and saw what happened then I would be pretty sure she has told other people who werent there he hit her. I totally agree with what your husband says. If a woman can hit a man in the head and the back and all the stuff she did she deserves to be hit back. I have known plenty of women who were the abuser. It goes both ways. You just dont hear about the women side so much because I think some men are embarassed to admit the wife/girlfriend beats them up.  
Date: 8/26/2002 11:38:00 AM  ( From Author ) From Authorid: 46005    well thanks everyone for the replies, I just dont know where to go from here. I mean she was a friend, he is a friend, do i just set it aside, or should i be feeling the way i do now, like she is the enemy, and she needs help. I mean she is strait lyeing to my face.... I did see everything, and I have had our mutural friends call me, and say isnt that so awful that he hit her, and IM LIKE NO WAY THAT IS NOT WHAT HAPPENED......  
Date: 8/26/2002 3:32:00 PM  From Authorid: 53052    no one has the right to hit anyone or abuse anyone... in self defence is kinda a different situation but if you are hitting in self defence to hit or is it trying to stop the abuse? grabbing the wrists to stop from being hit.. i always say.. remove myself from the situation it may cause more anger but no one gets physically hurt..  
Date: 8/26/2002 5:25:00 PM  From Authorid: 48941    Well, I say I agree with you on this one..I was in a very abusive relationship for almost two years, I am talking about being beat almost every day..If I was not being hit then it was being mentaly abused..I am a firm beleiver that no one should hit a spouse, boyfriend or girlfriend..I also feel that if a woman wants to act like a man and hit a man in anger, she better be ready to get it back..  
Date: 8/26/2002 10:19:00 PM  From Authorid: 42945    well actually she was very lucky that he didnt punch her lights out, must have taken some restraint to stop doing so, she wants to consider herself very lucky that he didnt...cheers Zema  
Date: 8/26/2002 10:26:00 PM  From Authorid: 56369    that mans bond to her is in fear not love. I think if a woman is goin nuts to the point where you feel physical abuse is needed, a man should walk away and not turn back. I mean if your about to hit ya girl, thats not love.  
Date: 10/2/2002 6:47:00 AM  From Authorid: 46515    What I don't understand is why you didn't tell her you know better. That you saw with your own eyes that she is lying. I would have, friend or no friend.
