Is it always wrong for a man to hit a woman?

A provocative post over at rockingwithhawking's weblog.

  1. Short answer: No. In fact, in many cases, it would be quite appropriate.

    I don't find Rocking's post that provocative. He's calmly pointing out the obvious simplicity in believing in this popular slogan. What would be provocative would be coming right out and declaring that women would be better off if the men they hit and berate were to hit her right back, or that a man may tame his harpy of a wife by enforcing his authority over her by spanking her. THAT is provocative.

    The problem with hitting back, however, has to do with the white-knights who have been poisoned by feminism who will gang up on and beat a man for hitting a woman EVEN IF SHE HIT HIM FIRST. You also have the legal system that will do the same and punish a man for daring to hit the poor little victim back by putting him in prison.

    So no, obviously, it's not always wrong for a man to hit a woman. Tell that to the other men who gang up on you and beat the crap out of you when you do though. You may be the victim and she the perpetrator, but you're the one who will wind up behind bars with bandages all over you.

    1. Thanks, Prince Asbel. Unfortunate but true.

  2. What if she starts reaching for the remote?

  3. Feminists think women should be Marines, police officers, &c. Well, those are occupations in which you can expect to get hit.

    Indeed, soldiers are trained in hand-to-hand combat techniques.

  4. I suppose a feminist or pro-feminist might counter that although some women can become police officers and soldiers, not all women are necessarily cut out for combat - just as is the case with some men. What do you think?

    1. But in that case they can't say as a matter of principle that it's wrong to hit a women. Or they'd have to apply the same codicil to men hitting other men or women hitting men.
