I'll humor you this one time.

One of the best lines ever.

Why does it have to be about getting pussy? Didn't you parents ever teach you that one of the number one lessons is you don't hit women? That's just a red line. It's not like you're trying to impress anyone - or at least it shouldn't be - you just don't do it. If you don't get it then I doubt anyone here will convince you.

I don't advocate hitting women OR men. I don't advocate hitting ANYONE, without good reason. But DON'T speak in absolutes and take it off the table, because you are misspeaking and not being truthful. Saying you would NEVER hit a women is bullshit. If WMMA fighter Gabi Garcia, standing 6 '2'' and weighing 240 pounds started beating up your grandmothermother or girlfriend, you wouldn't fight her off?



I've fought MMA. I've trained against females that could kick most guys' asses.

Personally, no. She'd kick my ass. Isn't that what 911 is for?

Also, she'd be doing well to beat up my grandmother: she's been dead for well over forty years now.

I think some guys are trying too hard in this thread tbh.
The self-defense defense is a weak one because you can defend yourself without striking someone, especially if you're bigger and stronger than them (usually the case obvs).

The golden rule isn't "DON'T EVER HIT WOMEN." The golden rule is "TREAT OTHERS AS YOU WISH TO BE TREATED." And it applies to BOTH genders.

I am not a woman beater. I grew up seeing my mom get abused. I saw my sister get abused. I've seen my female friends get abused. I've fought guys for hitting females. I'm against it.

BUT, if some female was attacking me, I would fight her off, so it would be hypocritical of me to say NEVER hit a female under ANY circumstance. Just trying to get people to speak correctly and truthfully.

I'm not even using the self defence thing.

I wouldn't do it mainly for the reason Plankton posted, and also because it's possible that they could fall, hit their head and die from just one punch.

EDIT - Latter bit is also why I wouldn't punch a guy in the street.

Says you.

So what is at risk when the philosophy of never hitting a woman is more popular? Why are you so passionate about this subject? Because all I can gather is that you've misinterpreted the term "hitting on chicks."

Aren't you a martial arts warrior though? Surely you know of better self-defense methods than hitting someone, right? I'll upload some PDFs for you.

Yes. Much more humane to choke a bitch out than to strike her.
