Apparently assault+whiskey is foreplay for Lucas...you're one sick *******.
Hmmm interesting subject, never been there completely, have been punched slapped by girlfriends before. It was a one time event, I never retaliated physically but I did break up with one of them immediately. It's hard for me to imagine a woman actually challenging me physically, I would easily be able to restrain or over power her. To me it's rediculous that you wouldn't either leave or restrain her, same goes for women in abusive relationships...first time it happens you're the victim, the second time you 'showed' up for it.
As for a random assault in a bar or other such event, I don't believe women get a free pass if a woman strikes another person male or female the other person has every right to strike back.
In my professional life as a mental health worker and ER Tech, I have been assaulted repeatedly by females...a combination of punches, kicks, biting, spitting, throwing chairs and dinner trays at me...never seriously injured...always was able to maintain my cool and restrain them or evade the assaults. It is within our right to use equal force when being assaulted but I never have against a woman. This one lady had assaulted me three days in a row and I had to remove myself from dealing with her because I began to resent her and was getting to a point where I would retaliate.
In relation to your story, I think thats exactly what most people in long term relationships do...you put up with it for a while and eventually you get to your limit and explode in violence yourself. Be it male of female...thats why domestic violence issues are soo dangerous for the cops.
PS Sanjuro, I'd have no problem decking you especially because you're a woman.
