never, ever, ever, ever, hit a girl

I disagree with this advice. Hitting a girl should be a LAST resort, but if a girl is abusing or physically attacking me in anger, and I have no other methods to stop it, I will hit her.

Putting her in a sharpshooter works. Make sure she taps out.

There is another lesson he will learn at a young age
that a lot of today’s women seem to be ignorant of:

Don’t start a fight with someone who can clearly kick your ass.

They have different bone structures (who has more ribs?)

A good article, but when obvious false myth is included, the rest of it comes into question.

Note: radical leftist females are not girls.

It will also cause some confusion in martial arts class with my daughter. She had to chase one guy into the corner to get him to spar. But then his problem was fear, not chivalry.

I believe the author’s point was to focus on not developing the habit of hitting a girl/woman. That’s different from a childhood standpoint, because it is important to develop the right impulse so that you don’t end up striking your pregnant/new mother wife, who has that degree of vulnerability involved when pregnant or recently given birth, dealing with your new child can be frustrating, but anger control is important. Otherwise, I am not going to discriminate based on gender if someone breaks into my home at night, but at the same time, I am not going hit my wife, my toddler daughter, or my infant son, just because something stressful is going on.

What if you out weighed her by 100 lbs and she is just trying to hit you with an open hand. Would you still hit her?

Many neanderthals here agree, if a girl tries slapping you, knock her out as a defense.

No, I’ve taken my share of slaps. A few were even undeserved.

“never, ever, ever, ever, hit a girl.”


Wrestling is where it’s at.

Why is it ok for a woman to hit a man?

Never hit a strange girl, I say. My sister, for instance, often had it coming. Hit in retaliation, and hit with equal force; you don’t need to escalate. But only so long as it’s a game. If it gets serious, and it can quickly—you know girls—bail out.

In self-defense, of course, hit them. I don’t know anyone who says males should allow themselves to be killed, maimed, or humiliated just so that he doesn’t have to strike the opposite sex. That would be a sort of “zero tolerance” gentlemanliness, and we don’t play those idiotic games.

How do they tell a male from a female when all they have is a skeleton?

I agree

I’ve seen some grizzly bear black women fight and I sure wouldn’t just sit there and let them beat me senseless

Plus I had a pretty small...and very pretty crazy woman attack me with a knife once....

Yep...its well intended advice...I give it myself but with caveats

Pelvis is the first thing that comes to mind.
