Nope. I try to avoid getting involved with non-ladies and have been generally successful.
I never said a man is obligated to strike a woman who attacks him, simply that one who does so should, IF NECESSARY, be responded to in the same way as a man who attacks another unjustifiably.
So a man isn’t obligated to, but “should”, yet you say you have never personally had to hit a woman.
Thanks for sharing your family’s wisdom about the rules of punching women.
