In that case, no.
If my missus starts a fight, she finishes it herself (not that she ever has, but hey).
There is no call for a bloke to get in between (i assume) two healthy women having a scrap unless one of them is getting ten tons beaten out of her, IE, it's out of hand.

why would you hit her?
violence from women = despicable
it is not classy and not dignified
it embarrasses me to think that people of my gender will lower themselves to the depth of vicious animal to solve 'disagreements' that can be solved with words

What i don't get is why do people want to get into fights anyway?
I've only ever come close to starting a fight once(well I say start I wouldn't of took the first swing, but I did make it clear what was going to happen), thats because a sleazy bloke wouldn't leave some of my friends alone. Thankfully while I was trying to deal with him, one of the girls went and got the bouncers.

i have never been in anysort of *female dog* fight in my life (from what i remember...) i am not condoning it, and definitly not saying its right, the point of the thread wasnt about women beating up women, it was the fact that i would get ''smacked'' as he put it, by a bloke, for starting/getting involved in a fight with anyone of his friends, people he was seeing etc.
Because some people just won't leave you alone otherwise. Talking? Aye, right... they'll have your teeth out first, given the chance.
Most people will back down, but some will have a go, regardless. It's their nature... and if they want to start, i like to make sure i can finish it.

OT but I love your sig
thank you
imo, women who get themselves into a fight remove the femininity from the situation
if you 'start a fight' - then you have to be willing for 'someone' to finish it
that seems contradictory in a way im not sure of yet...
I wondered if I might get a comment like that - it's not to do with my perception of right and wrong, it's to do with that of other people.
What I was driving at is that the only influencing factor would be our safety. I wouldn't restrain from hitting a girl because I think hitting girls is wrong, it would be because I would be worried about the reaction of people nearby.

but does that someone have to be a bloke thats obviously stronger than myself, so he says, punching me?
that.. still doesnt seem right, that you would hit a girl based on what the people around you would think...

if you don't fight, it doesn't have to be anyone...
i don't understand your train of though
if a guy starts on a girl, i agree, that wouldn't be socially correct
if a girl starts on a girl, and ANYONE steps in to protect their friend / companion, why are they doing wrong?
this is a SCRAP, not a league football match, it doesn't have to be fair
it isn't about size, or strength - it is about people looking out for the ones they care for
my OH is much bigger than i am, if someone started on him - i would defend him (as little as it would help)
if someone started on me (it would never be me to cause a dispute) he would stand up for me, i am sure

No no, i'm not saying otherwise, i just kinda brought this up in this thread, didn't mean anything against you.
It's just self preservation instinct. It's not so much what other people think, more what they are likely to do. Some blokes would likely set about a stranger who punches a female acquaintance, regardless of what said female has done previously, that's just the attitude they have.
Like I said before, if push came to shove and I had to hit a girl then I would even with other blokes watching. It would have to be a pretty extreme situation and I've never had cause to properly hit anyone before (i.e. in the face, not silly little bodypunches in school 15 years ago), male or female. Just because I'm an advocate of punching women where necessary doesn't mean I'm ever likely to do it because I try and avoid or diffuse physical confrontation where possible. It's exactly the same with blokes, I'd hit a bloke if I had to but it would be a last resort.

but this isnt protection.. protection is keeping someone off. not just smacking someone in the face when theyve backed off already. thats just hitting for the sake of revenge

am i to take it that this isn't such a theoretical situation?
if it IS, you're putting way too much thought into it
if this ex of yours has mentioned this in converstaion, so what?
he's trying to look big.
he's trying to let you know how much his new gf means to him.
he's making an issue of the fact that he would 'hurt' you, to 'protect' her.
this is an odd story you are telling.
it is protection (if you read your OP) - he would hit you, if you hit her.
you mention nothing of 'if you hit her once, and then let it go', or 'if you hit her, in a drunken state, out of the context of a fight'.
women fighting = awful
men starting on women = awful
men "defending" their women against 'whoever' = acceptable
this isnt just about 'his woman'.. this is about anyone he so much as considers a friend, as well. and i dont find it acceptable that it would resort to hitting someone, rather than just restraining someone...

eurgh
you talk about equality
would you expect him to restrain a guy who was attacking his 'friend'?
or hit him?
(my vote is for which ever is going to call the disturbance to an end as quickly as possible, and with the least damage done to either party)
