[QUOTE="Bedrockgames, post: 6215524, member: 85555"] We just disagree on this point, and i am not interested in turning this into a women versus men debate. I just think it is both wrong for men to hit women and different when a man strikes a woman than the other way around. Equal means we all have the same value and the same basic abilities, but it doesnt mean there are not differences between people when it comes to size, strength, etc. I am only offering this here as a way of explaining my position, not so we can start another rpg forum discussion on differences between the sexes (i would be happy to field any questions or points by pm, but am not going to offer a response to this in the thread beyond what I have below). I did martial arts, boxing and self defense for years, and I have taught my wife and sisters what i know. There are certainly things people can do to level the playing field a bit. That said, generally speaking they are still going to be at a serious disadvantage if a guy tries to abuse them or attack them. While i agree its wrong to pay a woman less than a man. I still think it is worse for a guy to strike a woman. Now, you have every right to disagree, but i simply cannot share your position. It is bad to hurt people at all, but it is worse for a man to strike a woman. [/QUOTE]
