Ok, so I'm going to lay my cards on the table from the start... I'm a 25yr old guy

I promise I'm not some men's rights moron. I realise that almost all of society is institutionaly wieghted against women and (despite the single sex catholic school I went to), I'm part of the problem

But I take real issue with the concept whereby it's ok for a woman to hit me.
The justification I usually here is that men are(usually) stronger.
But I'm skinny AF, and an 5'6
I have never hit anywone, and I don't understand why it should be acceptable from a woman

P.S this is not a rant
Il try my best to. consider every reply withthe merit it deserves

No you're so correct,
I posted it on the feminism section because i thought you would understand

Yes, on several occasions... it's not that damaging physically, but it feels like your 7 and being bullied again

I'm probably over reacting, but I just think there are plenty of women who are bigger and stronger than me. I wouldn't hit them ever, because I'm not a dick. It just annoys me that social convention day it should just take it (especially when I don't feel I did anything wrong)

It's not acceptable, and I doubt you'll find many on this board who'll say that it is. Is someone hitting you?

What part of feminism is telling you it’s ok for women to hit men?

It’s not exactly a core part of the philosophy.

Where is this coming from?
