I’ll plead ignorance here: Where was this allowed?

You must have gone to some really good schools if they enforced assault laws equally.

At the schools I went to, girls pretty much got away with everything as the teachers just stood around and did nothing to stop them, and boys who hit back were always told never to hit girls. I don't recall one time when a girl was told never to hit a boy. I'm not the only one here who has seen that.
