Re: justifiable

In all seriousness, I think it’s quite cowardly for a man to raise his hand on a woman.

and I am reminded of this:

She asked for it!!!

Re: justifiable

Sorry guys, I didn't know there was already a thread about "How Can She Slap". I just read the question and this was the first thing that came to me.

Re: justifiable

Oh wow! She totally asked for it! I am against violence, but he should've punched her in the face another time. What a slut! lol..

And the other men beating down on the poor guy when the slut with the whip shockingly holds her freshly-slapped face! BWahahHAhHahhahaha!

Re: justifiable

she slapped him first, why isnt anyone saying anything to her? :konfused:

Re: justifiable

Update: The incident is real and apparently happened four months ago:

“We were all given our parts where 70 per cent was to be said as is and 30 per cent would be improvisations,” says Ravi. “There was this girl called Isha opposite me who was supposed to abuse me and I was to retaliate, but calmly. After a while when it came to improvisations, I presume she was out of words and came and slapped me hard. I was shocked and in the heat of the moment, I slapped her back…

“Just because they have power, it doesn’t give them the licence to pull down people. I have sent a legal notice to the producers and asked for an apology publicly for defamation,” avers Ravi, who is currently working in Ekta Kapoor’s Kahaani Humare Mahaabharat Ki…

What a bi**h! How can she do that? If she dare to raise her hand then she should be ready for what comes to her!

Seriously - that girl needs to be kicked out. I totally support the guy and wished he had beaten her up much harder.

There is no need to take abuse from anyone.

say it happened in real life though that a husband and wife were fighting and say the husband said soemthing that hurt the wife a lot and then she got emotional and slapped him. do you think it is ok for him to slap her back or to strike her inany other way like punch her.

personally i do not think that even a slap from her warrants his slap because he is a man. and between man and woman there is no comparsion of physical beat downs. a man can esily beat a woman to a pulp but a woman cannot even if she wants to.

and please everyone refrain from name-calling. i mean you can say other stuff but you do not have to use obscenities. please be mature even though this is a touchy subject.

It certainly IS justifiable for a man to slap a woman IF the woman slaps him first without any reason or justifiable provocation.

If its a case of emotions etc, where everything happens in the heat of the moment, why should we say that its ok for the woman to lose sight of her restraint and slap him, but not ok for the man to lose his restraint in response to being slapped?

Note, in such situations it is not easy to assess the situation in a split second, but to be fair I would think that it is UNFAIR if the man responded with a disproportionatley hard slap which caused more damage / pain than the womans slap on his face.

In any case, the man or the woman should try to control themselves and not slap eachother in the first place.

I strongly believe that in a marriage situation, neither the husband nor the wife should EVER resort to any sort of violence.

I don't care if a man is stronger than me, I would pick up something strong and heavy and aim it at his head if one ever hit me.

I Strongly agree with that....i wud do the same as well...buh in marriages i dunt think there shud evr be any vilence no matter how bad sumone has been or sumting dey dun

This.

well this is what i am asking is when exactly do you think it is justifiable.

I'd aim it a lot lower than his head!!!

Re: justifiable

equal rights...but only up to this point right? :~)

domestic violence between a couple is a different story.

ar rite
yany she can slap, reason - emotion
and when he slaps back .. . . .where did the danm emotion go

when women demand to be treated equally she should not hhave any double standards and be ready for the equal treatment :)

interesting responses. there truly is no real respect for women in our society.

an eye for an eye

Re: justifiable

^ you tell me where is the respect in a woman who slaps someone?

we, or at least I am, talking about a very specific situation, similar to the "how can she slap" video that was posted. A woman who slaps out of anger or to provoke has no respect for herself or others. and its pretty simple, if u have no respect for urself, others wont either...

life is not a huge gender war like you like to think, again, its about simple respect. respect for yourself and others that u try not to let ur anger get the better of u. if a person slaps/hits/beats/get physical with someone that person has every right to retaliate, regardless of gender.
