To the people who claim that it is never acceptable for a man to hit a woman, I have a few questions for you.

Is it ever acceptable for a woman to hit a man?
If so, why does it work for women only and not for men?

If a man should suffer the most severe consequences for hitting a woman, should a woman who hits a man also suffer the same consequences?
If not, why is it one way for women and another way for men?

Keep in mind when answering that men and women are considered both by law and by social standards as equal. If you suggest that men and women are not equal, do you support and promote equality for women (voting rights, salary, etc.)?
If so, why the double standard?

For those whose answers are not applicable to the questions, please spare me your opinions.

I just dreamt that I was walking down the street with this tight black dress that was really sexy like something marilyn monroe was wearing, that seemed like a rushed curtain, with a plunging neckline, very tigh waist and I had high heels on and feeling really carefree. the last months I am mostly wearing tracksuits that can be goodlooking but they are not the sexiest thing! it was a really vivid dream.

Pet food, toothpaste, seafood, peanut butter, canned foods, toys....everytime I look at the news there's another product from China that is being pulled off the shelf because it poses a danger to people or animals. Why are we still buying these or ANY products from China? Why not boycott these products? Ultimately this mess could end up being very good for the United States. It consumers will only buy domestic products, more domestic products will be produced, creating jobs and strengthening the economy. Can it be done?

I realize pretty or cute females just date guys who are not good looking or just because they feel they dont deserve being with a handsome guy. I am a handsome guy but, I never had a girlfriend because one reason, I am deaf in one ear and heard of hearing in the other. Well, I do socialize etc but I have many theories in females growing up studing them and their behavior around males. I think I found out why females dont wanna look at a handsome guy... They are afraid they dont deserve them or just scared... like pass out maybe? A load of females that are below adverage just easily look at handsome guys.
I do see some females smile at me and stare at me but they are not my type... or are they playing a game? I see the type of females I am attracted to just become shy or hang out with jerks or really muscular guys...
My father tells me, if you see a pretty girl at the bar and she is not being talked by, its because the guys are scared to approach her... talk to her. Same for males...

When I was real little (5/6 ish, I'm in my 20s now), I was raped/molested by a neighborhood boy. It went on for maybe 2-3 years when I finally told my parents. At the time I knew it was wrong but didn't understand why or anything. When I was 5/6 he was 11/12. I told my parents and they didn't do anything they just told me it was my fault for going outside alone basically I always regretted telling them. All they did was ask him to stay away from me. To this day they claim that he never did anything wrong because we were both kids...i know I shouldn't have to ask but was it my fault ? Or would he be held accountable if this was happening now?

When I get really angry, I often get upset and cry. I can think of things I want to say to get my point across and it sounds great in my head, but I am not able to express myself because I am in tears and am trying to make myself stop crying. Do any other women have similar stories that have overcome this? I am starting a business career and I know this will be a problem. I need to learn how to control my tears and stay calm enough to express myself professionally.

Assume you are in close relation with her/him. You can talk, discuss, shout etc. Assume you are her/his father/mother or spouse or sibling. You know that her/his thinking is not right (assume you are wiser), and you want to influence her/his thinking and bring it in the right direction. What will you do?
