Although, for your point of a weak girl hitting a guy and him just punching her flat out, I have to agree that he shouldn't just hit her as hard as he can. But a woman should not be able to hit me with the intent of hurting me with me being unable to respond, I would not punch a woman full force if she hit me as hard as she could and it barely hurt, but I would give her a little slap to let her know that she has crossed a line.

good point, about the mom/gf/you thing...i guess is a woman attacked me i would want my SO to stop her in anyway..and if he couldnt restrain her then i would want him to do whatever he had to.
my whole point was just that...he didnt have anymarks..and and she had a black eye...thats wrong to me..why didnt he restrain her, leave or just liek push her away? just personally i think that men shouldnt hit women ..besides the fact that i was raised to think that thats wrong ..guy ARE more likely to hit harder..and girls are more likely to have real damage done. we tend to be more fragile. a slap probably isnt going to be that hard ... and i've never had a bruise from being slapped.
and just to clarify i dont think domestic abuse should happen on EITHER end of the gender spectrum.
i really do think sometimes violence works (as either intervention or to knock some sense into someone) and i applaud you irishsean,analog,hektore,xepherys and seaver
