It means that if someone does a certain thing(tit) then you are entitled to do something else(tat). Usually the two things are related in some fashion, such as if your husband bought a new shirt, you are entitled to buy yourself a new blouse.

It means "a blow for blow", or whatever you do to me, I'll do back.
It was originally used in the 16th century, and both "tit" and "tat" were words for "a hit".

Just the same as the Latin Quid pro quo; something returned equally for something else, for example, if you ignore me, I'll ignore you...
