How was I being hurtful to women? My point is that you should never hit a girl is bullshit. If some woman hits you unjustifiably, hit her back or push her or something. She obviously wants to fight you anyway, as in Ferret's story about the woman who hit the guy over the head with the bottle. That was totally unjustified. It's not a matter of her acting like a man; it's a matter of someone defending themself.

Assault is assault, whether it comes from man or woman. The actual logical thing to is call the cops. That way you don't get charged, but if you're in a rowdy mood and some asshole, be it man or woman starts trying to whale on your ass, it's totally wrong to let the woman get away with it just because she's a woman.

Oh, and that lady shit doesn't fly. It suggests a set of standards which we are to live up to. No way. I'm not a lady; I'm a woman. Well behaved my ass.
