this... "never" okay to hit a woman is stupid.... we live in a day and age where women are supposed to be treated like equals... and im not saying that rihanna deserved to be slapped or whatever, because unless she hit chris brown first, she doesnt... my main point is to expect to get hit if you're hitting someone... REGARDLESS OF SEX
*8th Ave, excuse me, I really I don't know. Are you really a knockout babe?
If you are a normal sized guy and you're dealing with a crazy chick, you use as LITTLE force as possible. It's worked for me. And usually that isn't much force.

Perhaps some of you have had to grow up with domestic violence, and for that I'm sorry. But it's always a slippery slope to scumbagdom. I realize experiences like that can twist your thinking, but that "way of thinking" is NOT SEXIST. Though preferential treatment to woman on sports boards can be sexist. Heh, heh, heh
My admiration for the real men who stood up, Mr. Crackerz, (what a man!) TMC ( to the point , as always ),Biggstrade, CJR and Mc Wilkens.
I would have posted on " State of the Board", but we closed that thread and kept this open and I can see some wisdom in that as this thread was the only outstanding issue.
first, i dont know what a knock out babe is. if the question asks if i ever hit women, the answer is no. if the question asks if i am fine as fuk, the answer is still probably no.
secondly, i did grow up with domestic violence, but how do you know that it took a twist on my thinking? and tell me how is it not sexist? you believe that chris brown is wrong for hitting rihanna for what reason? because she is a women? do you know exactly what happened? do you know whether or not rihanna provoked it? no one knows wtf happened, so who the fuk are we to go on and say this or that person is wrong? and i saw the picture in the earlier post and i must say i dont know how credible TMZ is. again, im not sayin that it was right OR wrong, but i am sayin that i want to reserve my judgement until all the facts come out and not say that it was wrong of CB just because rihanna is a women.
and lastly, are you saying that i am less of a "real man" because i have a different opinion?
