I understand a man's strength overwhelms a woman's, and the majority of men, for this reason, would not hit a woman back, but women know this and feel it's okay to hit a man because she is weaker than him. It's not at all. If I slapped a man in an unprovoked attack, I would expect a slap back.

For the most part I do agree with what you say - but if that man did slap you back - would you have any respect for him? Two wrongs don't make a right.

Hyperthetically - if you had previously been warned by that man (if he was a partner) that if you slapped him again he would leave - and you did, then he should leave - or even press charges of assault.

You probably wouldn't be so quick to do it again in another relationship.
