Yes, a very tricky subject dealing with women.
Damned if you do and maybe dead if you don't.
I, like many I suppose have been brought up to never hit a woman. Quite rightly too I think as in most cases it's tantamount to bullying.
BUT.... Never underestimate women.
Just a case in point.
Was walking to work one morning through an area frequented by a lot of junkies/hookers and street people. Two "Girls", who I recognised from the area, both Heroin/Coke addict hookers were harassing a guy.
They were about 20 yards down the street from me, heading in my direction.
All of a sudden the guy broke into a run past me with the two "ladies" running after him, screaming abuse.
After he had made his getaway one of them screams out at him, "You f#####g wanker we wouldn't have stabbed you anyway.
So.... they turn their attention on me.
I'd had a run in with the biggest one before 'cos I wouldn't give her money. They approached me screaming abuse calling me all kinds of stuff. The ringleader was my height and build, completely gone on coke and EXTREMELEY aggressive.
I kept my fence up as I was walking and verbaling and this continued for at least 50 yards. Then the aggressor put her hands behind her back and I thought, "Knife!!".
Funnily enough I had an expandable baton in my backpack, back pocket and I also put MY hand behind my back to get it out.
Turns out that she was just bluffing and with a s##t eating grin pulls out a rolled up newspaper from behind her.
I carried on walking and things finished there. I must admit that I had a massive adrenaline dump and was shaking by the time I got to work.
If I hit her I'm an asshole for hitting a woman. Also women will lie and tell all the wannabe heroes that you picked on a woman and the next thing is you've got 2 or 3 guys around looking to fill you in for picking on the poor girl. I was lucky in that instance but there's many a guy who has been stabbed to death by a woman.
Two months later, the very same "girl" had an argument with a guy who lived on the same street when he objected to her soliciting for "clients", outside his house. She attacked him, punched, headbutted and gouged/scratched him around the eyes and face,(Shredder anyone?).
He ended up with a broken jaw, broken cheekbone and eye socket and, some kind of laceration to his eyes. She ended up with two years.
I've always thought that women tend to fight more naturally than men.
Anyway, women can be extremely aggressive and dangerous. They are capable of inflicting a lot of damage, and if you do hit one, in self defence, be ready for a few guys to come around to defend her "Honour"
