Recently I've been made aware of different instances of women abusing men. There is a undeniable double standard when a women hits a man with a golf club (Tiger Woods anyone?) compared to when men abuse women. I'm against abusing women. I think a man should show as much restraint as possible, but I do think that there are situations when it is justified to hit them back.

@hue-man,
If you're going to hit someone, a man, you got to expect to be hit back, shouldn't women show constraint too?

@hue-man,
While I'm in favor of the double standard on the whole, it does show how you get into trouble with overly simplistic rules like "never hit a girl".
