Hitting Girls: Wrong or O.K.?

Discussion
Feb 20, 2009

In my English class we were talking about hitting girls. Some people were saying that if they hit you first you should be able to hit back. Personally I feel that guys shouldn't be able to hit girls. I feel that it is terrible thing to do. I think that the punishments should be more enforced then they already are. It doesn't matter if you and your partner get in a fight. I feel that it is the wrong way to go if this ever happened.

How do you feel about hitting girls?

I think guys should never hit a girl and I believe that no one deserves that type of punishment just for making the other person angry.

If you do have an urge to hit a girl then just go somewhere and calm down instead of taking it out on the girl.

Are you insane??? Men are way bigger and stronger than women! A blow from a woman is like a pat to a grown man, hardly enough to do any sort of damage other than make them mad. A blow from a man, a grown, adult man, can be devastating to a woman. Seriously think about it. All of an average woman's strength behind a blow= hardly anything. All of a man's strength behind a blow=knock you out in one hit, depending on your body type. Come one people, get real. It's unacceptable.

Men have been hospitalised

Men have been hospitalised because their wives or girlfriends have beaten them, not by hitting them round the head with a frying pan but because they gouge their faces and punch them, kick them. Women can do as much damage as men can, sometimes even more.

you're funny.

Submitted by Paul Frank on Wed, 2012-07-18 14:10.

I like to see you face my Tae-kwon-do Teacher. one kick from her will put you down and break your ribs. Women can be just as dangerous when given the right tools and striking techniques. I hit girls all the time in tae-kwon-do, If I'm hitting too hard they say ease up, and I ease up. I have been beaten by a girl streetfighter too, although at the time I was a whitebelt. Recently in sparring, last week I was beaten by a 3rd degree blackbelt that was a woman. She was a tricky bitch. I'm only a 1st degree. Women are more flexible, which if they were to train 4.5 years in a martial art as tae-kwon-do, they have the potential to give you concussions, broken ribs, damaged organs, and all within 15 seconds. Not to mention how fast they could execute punches and kicks to your face. now they may not have the strengh or the stamina of a man, but in a real fight all it takes is less than 30 seconds to end it. I've heard the best way to deter a female is to hit her in the breasts hard. they are sensitive, and it's probably the equivalent to kicking a man in his balls. if she's flatchested don't even bother, or I guess you could use a spear strike technique.

 

My stance on this is that women are equals. So I will treat them like equals. if she wants to fight, then I'll use diplomacy as the first option if she's serious, and as I'm taught, I'll use my martial arts skills as a last resort. Same would apply if you were an male. If she wants to spar, then sure. I love sparring.

if she's coming at me with all she has I will show no mercy.

I completely agree with you.

Submitted by YCheng2 on Tue, 2009-10-06 09:33.

i tottally agree that guys shouldty hit a girl due to the fact that girls are alot weaker than guys are and if we beat girls is nothign more than beating a kids because they are not meant to fight i mean unless they train them selfs. but still no guy should ever hit a girl is 100% worng and we have no right to hit people anyways.

the thing taht stand out for me is how ou wrote so little and explaned so much about your ideda you bascally put your main idea there and everyone else jsut commented i liek how you jsut did that. and it also stands out for me how you said guys should never hit a girl becuase i htink that's very true and we should never hit a girl no matter what the situation is unless you are acting.

it reminds me of liek movies and drama when the father beat a mother it's worng and it looks really bad it give me alot of pity for the mother and i wanted to beat the crap out of the father so never ever hit a girl or i will diffenetly come and find you myself i foudn that is super duper worng to hit a girl and i feel very strongly aobut this.

thank you for wrriting i look foward to seeing what you wirte next time because i really like how your worte so little and its not a waste of my time reading it because it took me 5 sec to finsh it and its a good topic i look foward to what you will be writeing next time i will be written to so repone.

I agree with you because it really is wrong to hit a girl. Although I think it depends on the girl too, the girl needs to learn how to make people respect them. If a boy or any other person who doesn't have the right ot hit you, you should tell them not to do that and you shouldn't hit the person either or else they will be like "well, you hit me so why can't I hit you".You have to learn how to respect yourself so others respect you.

sometimes people get angry

Submitted by kiseemp on Mon, 2012-03-26 12:16.

Sometimes people get angry and have arguments. If you're in a relationship that's going to happen regardless. It's how people handle their anger and their actions that really matter.

I don't feel like its okay to hit a girl even though I've been put in that situation before. It's not that you have the urge to hit them but if you're trying to handle the situation differently and you're still getting angry violent responses, what do you do from there?

What do you do when you try to remove yourself from the situation but your being followed as well as provoked. what do you do when no matter what you do nothing works? you try every possible way to get away from the situation but the person wont stop until they see you mad like them. sometimes if you deal with that it can be frustrating but that does not make it ok to put your hands on anybody and that's what both sex have to realize.

Men should never be allowed to hit women. It is just downright wrong. Any man that hits a woman should face some serious consequences. I also feel that any man or woman that stands idly by and watches another man hit a woman should also face some serious consequences.

What happened to the times where women were treated with a tremendous amount of respect? Why did they vanish?

They vanished because women started demanding equal treatment. You want equal treatment you're going to get both the positive and the negative. Generally speaking, women deserve no more respect than men do.

Yes, it does seem wrong for males to hit females because that's what every person has been taught since the beginning of time. But I still argue that everyone is still human, and in this country we're all supposedly equal so there should be no tougher consequences for males to hit a female than if a female were to hit a male.

That's just my view anyway.

Submitted by Nick on Wed, 2012-10-31 06:19.

So what happens if a woman hits a man? You are right, a man should never be allowed to hit a woman, at least not without her hitting first. But a rule that suggests men cannot hit women back who hit them first encourages women to hit men - knowing they will get away with it.

It's quite simple, if you are a woman and you don't want to get hit by a guy, don't hit them and you should be fine. A woman who hits a guy and gets hit back has no sympathy from me.

To me the best thing to do in a situation is walk away and if your being followed just run. once you get far enough away just go home and then call the person and try to explain why you ran.

I personally agree with you, if a female approaches you like a man, then treat her like one.   With me being a female, people would expect that I'd be against men putting their hands on a female, but what about females putting their  hands on a male?  There are hardly any consequences for a female to hit a male, but there are a whole load of consequences for a male to hit a female.  

Look at the Chris Brown and Rihanna.......if Rihanna would have beat Chris Brown like he allegedly beat Rihanna, then there would be way less sympathy for Chris Brown than there is for Rihanna today, and Rihanna probably wouldnt have to do time in jail because she being a female, would be portrayed as less of a threat than the male, Chris Brown.

I think that if girls have the right to hit someone, then they should have the right to receive the same amount of pain or even worse (depending on the person) that got hit. To tell you the truth I think that it depends on what the situation is or what happens during the fight and/or arguement. I would never hit a girl unless they came out of no where and hit me purposely. =)

Respecting woman should be the first priority. You personally should never hit girls, even if they hit you first. Chris Brown for example hit Rihanna pretty badly because he couldn't control his anger. No matter what the occasion is, you shouldn't hit a girl. Men have been developed to be stronger, no offense so therefore they shouldn't show their strength or how powerful they are on woman.

I don't believe in men hitting women for no reason. However, if it is self defense and the woman hit you first then, why not? Women have tried very hard to make their case that they wish to be equal to men, this is just one of those things that proves we are not in fact equal to men. Women and men should receive the same punishments, and therefore in certain circumstances any one should be able to hit anyone. Why is it that girls can hit guys, guys can hit guys, and girls can hit girls and no one says anything?

I think that hitting girls is wrong, and that nobody should be allowed to do it. Unless the woman is about to kill you and you have to hit her out of self defense, then you should react back.
I hear a lot about domestic violence happening in bad areas of the city, and I think it's disgusting.

The cut was too precise to have been an accident, which leads me to think it was domestic violence.

I believe that hitting anyone is wrong! I feel that there are better ways to express your anger or frustration. I think that hitting girls is just as wrong as hitting boys no matter the situation. I am very intreagued by your question and i feel that all of the answers have been somewhat similar they say that hitting girls is wrong and i agree with the person who asked what about boys? I think that what AnnaC said is absolutely true. I think that if you are about to be killed that you can defend yourself. But I think that even by hitting someone with a flower you can cause a bigger fight.

I would never go out of my way to hit a woman. But if they have the right to hit me, then by that, I can hit them right back. Physically, men seem stronger than women. It not like there aren't strong women out there, because there are, but men are usually bigger. But if a physically superior woman hits a man, it doesn't hit the news. But if a man hits a woman, in any way. It is wrong. I know that there are girl in the world that can kick my ass. That is why I don't mess with them. So in closing, I wont hit a woman unless they hit me first.

Submitted by MCruz on Mon, 2009-04-27 21:31.

Here is the mind set of the world, if a girl hits you, you did something bad, if you hit a girl, you started something bad because all a girl has to do to get a guy in trouble is simply say "he assualted me". Then an entire investigation will go on for a false statement. But if a guy says "she assualted me" 1) people might laugh, 2) the NYPD might look at you like you got a screw loose, 3) NYPD might say "ok we'll look into it". give a pathetic investigation. That is why I avoid those types of confrontations, the never turn out good for us males.

  I agree with you post  hitting girls wrong or okay because i think no matter what a guy does to a girl or what a girl does to a guy that guys should not hit them.I think it is wrong because it shows that the guy does not have any respect for the girl.

 One sentence you wrote that stands out for me is "it doesnt matter if you and your partner get into a fight". I think this is terrible because, u dont have to use your body to slove a problem.You can slove it out by talking.

 Another sentence that stood out to me was "it is a terrible thing". I  agree with this becuase i dont believe that any guy should put their hands on a girl.They should have betgter manners and more respect for girls.

 Im not going to lie, i hit girls and i dont think im going to stop. Im not saying its right but im not going to just say it shouldnt happen because i do it. Let me set the record straight tho, i never hit a girl when i was serious or too the point where i really wanted to hurt a female. I hit girls in playful mannors all the time. If i ever got to the point where i was so angry that i would have to put my hands on a girl i just move away from her or let her know that im serious and she should just move away from me. Hitting girls is not that right way to go about things if your serious, that doesnt make you a man to hit a girl. Where im from a man that hits a female is considered to be a (bad word). lol. So basically what im saying is hitting girls is not o.k in certain situations, if your playing know how hard to play so there will be no bruises or anything.

Submitted by hkong on Fri, 2009-10-09 11:47.

First and foremost, hitting is unlawful regardless of situation. This "don't hit girls" also is a form of stereotype. While this may seem like a benificial one, it amplifies the belief that women are weaker. Biologically this is true, but much of it is to blame on self stereotyping. I am a man (Girls and boys get outdated) and i will not hit a woman, but i will not hit another man under the same circumstances either. If a woman strikes me, i will strike back, i don't see a "gender" if they are attacking me, i see a threat.

Hitting "girls" is wrong, but hitting a "boy" is just as unlawful.

Another sentence that I found interesting was: "I feel that it is terrible thing to do." This stood out for me because... I believe the same way. I think a man should never lay his hands on a woman. No matter what.

Submitted by akatz on Thu, 2009-10-22 21:51.

I am astonished of your post " Hitting girls. Wrong or O.K ? ", because I feel like it is true. i disagree because i think it is horrible for girls to be hit. Other people might have other opinions but in my eyes, it’s never O.K. One sentence toy wrote that stands out for me is " Personally I feel that guys shouldn't be able to hit girls ". This should never be O.K. because it something you just don’t do. It’s something you shouldn’t do and some people won’t understand that concept because it goes in one ear and out the other. Another sentence that I liked was " In my English class we were talking about hitting girls ". This stood out for me because we don’t talk about this in English, neither we should unless its in an article. Its not the appropriate place for this certain topic to be brought up. I would love to have a discussion though. Your post reminds me of an article in a magazine that I read a while ago.

Thanks for your writng. Maybe next time you could write a litttle more becuae this is a very interesting topic. Keep it up!

I agree with your post

Submitted by drodriguez on Thu, 2009-10-22 23:35.

I agree with your post "Hitting Girls: Wrong or O.K.?" 100 percent because i feel that it is very wrong to hit a girl. However i feel that it goes both ways. What exactly gives permission to girls to hit boys but not the other way around? Correct me if im wrong but wouldnt that be sexist to repremend boys for something girls do as well.

One line that stood out for me was "I think that the punishments should be more enforced then they already are." because i feel this statement is a little biased. How can you get down on boys for hitting girls when i myself have seen my fair share of guys get hit by girls, whether or not they deserve it gives girls no right to hit them, just like boys have no right to hit girls. So why should punishments go up on boys and not girls, as crazy as people might find it there are also many guys getting beat up by girls and nothing is done to the girls.

Another sentence that stood out to me was "Some people were saying that if they hit you first you should be able to hit back." because i feel that just because some one hits you does not automatically give you permission to hit that person back, which can sound hypocritical because if a guy were to punch me i'd punch him back; but that doesnt mean i was right in doing so. There are other ways of making sure it doesnt happen anymore or atleast stop it for that matter, you can tell a teacher or closest adult to the area where its taking place. Violence is never the answer and sadly people seek it more than anything so get rid of any anger which is naive.

I can say i agree with you because i was always raised to NEVER hit a girl, and even if i wasnt taught to respect girls I always felt like i should so hitting a girl because she hit me first has always been out of the question with out a doubt. However i felt this piece was also biased as i stated before because you cant punish a boy for hitting a girl and turn your face away when you see a girl smack a boy across his face. Women have always fought for their right to be treated as equal and i admire that to the fullest extent, but just like boys should be punished for hitting girls, girls too need to face consequences as well.

I liked your writing a lot and i look foward to your next post because this did open my eyes to how guys do mistreat girls and hitting them back is never the answer and maybe some type of counseling class for both girls and guys should take session to teach BOTH that niether have the right to hit eachother.

Submitted by hrashid on Fri, 2009-10-23 00:14.

I liked your post, "Hitting Girls: Wrong or O.K.?" because even though it’s brief, it gets right to the point and express your opinion. It sparked my attention and I believe there hitting girls can’t be justified.

One sentence you wrote that stands out for me is: "I think that the punishments should be more enforced then they already are.”  I think this is powerful because after you have abused a girl, she is scarred for her entire life and always lives with this fear that holds her back from showing her full potential.

Another sentence that caught my attention was: “It doesn't matter if you and your partner get in a fight.” This stood out for me because it’s true that you shouldn’t use violence as way to solve problems, instead you should discuss and come up with a mutual understanding. Even if abuse is used once, the relationship will become unstable for the future.

I agree with you that hitting girls is wrong. One reason I say this is there is no reason for laying a hand on a girl, it’s a sign of great disrespect and that one action can’t be justified.

Thanks for your writing. I look forward to seeing what you write next, because your post is brief and allows me to express my thoughts in an expanded way. It also agrees with my thoughts.

That's not a good thing to say, you're stereotyping. Just because boys are "stronger", that isn't an excuse to allow girls to use that when they do hit, what if...by chance, they weren't strong, they had a low-self esteem and some girls try to jump him. Remember, he's not like most boys, he can't really do anything. So, in a flash, he hits her. Those girls will either rough him up even more, or say that he started it and he get's in trouble.

 

Have you ever heard: Paul Pays For All? Well, Everyone involed should be punished, not just the boy. It would be unfair and immoral to single out the boy...just because he is the boy.

I liked your post,''Hitting Girls: Wrong or O.K.?'' because i think that hitting girl is a bad thing,ever the girl hit you first,you can't hit the girl back,what you can do is go away from the girl,because hitting girls can't be justified.

One sentence you wrote that stands out for me is ''Some people were saying that if they hit you first you should be hit able to hit back.'' I think this is bad because we can't hit the girl if they hit we first, we should asked the girl why she just hitting me or just go away.

Another sentence that i read was ''It does't matter if you and your partner get in a fight.'' This stood out for me because if we have a fight with the partner,it will broke the team, it will not have good teamwork anymore,and no good discuss.

I agree with you that hitting girl is worng,the reason is the man power always bigger then the girls,so wee don't can't control how many power that we using,it is easy to hurt a girl when you hitting back.

Im a girl and I personally

Im a girl and I personally believe that it's okay for a guy to hit a girl. What makes a girl any weaker than a guy? What if the guy was smaller than the girl? Or the Guy was younger than the girl, but the girl was bullying the guy? I mean, it just does't make sense that a girl can hit a guy but a guy can't reflect a punch. I understand what you guys are tyring to say though. You guys think girls are much weaker than guys and hitting them back wouldn't be a fair thing to do. But what is a guy to do when a really strong girl is like, beating them up?  Anyways, I still believe violence is just wrong though. You should never use a fist to solve a problem. The only time a person should be hitting anybody is when they're using self defense.

I personally don't think

I personally don't think that anyone should be hitting anyone, I mean if there is a fight between two people that hate each other I mean it should not happen something should be done to prevent it.  I mean it all depends too in a relationship or if its a person that you don't really like.  I am not saying that its ok to hit a girl if you hate her no, but in a relationship, there should not be any fighting because problems should be resvolved by tlaking it out without any problems.  I think that if you don't like someone it is more weird to see a guy hit  a girl and that should not happen, in general I do agree with you that guys should not hit girls at all because there should be a line of respect.  Guys that hit girls should not be severly punshied though I don't see it as a federal offense or anything or a crime unless it is really severe to the point where its not hitting anymore its more like getting beat up and then there is a difference.  But to be severly punished I don't think so, I think that in that situation you shoudl just stay away from each other and not be together.  But really guys hitting girls is not ok.

I think guys should not hit

I think guys should not hit girls because girls are weak. If you hit them what do you expect to be return her hitting you back? and goes on and on?

Valerie you are right at

you are right at some points but some women are very strong. Thats called self-defense. Its sort of like karate but diffrent. Self-defense can actually kill a person.

Valerie I totally agree with

I totally agree with the smckens753 because yeah guys aren't even allowed to touch a girl in any way that the girl feels uncomftorable. But im sorta nutreul on the girl hitting you and you hitting her back. Reason because I disagree with that is because volience is NEVER the answer. Reason I agree with it is that you should be able to defend yourself. Shouldn't you? I mean self-defense is diffrent then hitting and scratching a girl. But still, you do have a right to defend yourself.

I think physical aggression

I think physical aggression is wrong in general unless it is for self-defense. Being a woman or man does not change anything. We are all different, but that is  what makes us all the same. Aside from looking different from each other as well as having different body parts as males and females, we are still people. Yet somehow, the society of man tends to look down on women. Even saying hitting women is wrong is sort of implying that they are lesser than men so you should be more careful with them. Sometimes men give them a bit too much respect and women are able to abuse their power and boss the men around. We have been striving for equality for many years and yet we still do not have it.

If a woman were to attack me, I would fight back and make sure she never does it again. I don't think gender matters with who you hit. You should not be hitting anyone in general. I think this is obvious and I find it a shame at what society has come to in this country. And as people would say as a meme on the internet, "SON... I AM DISAPPOINT."

Anyways, thanks for sharing your thoughts on this topic. I look forward to the replies.

A meme is basically a fad or bandwagon of sorts. This is also a meme of disrespect towards women.

 I thought this was a good image to use for this topic.
