Well....I, personally, advocate it, because it gives us women a sense of empowerment. I even heard that Christina Aguilera, a "Stop Vioence Against Women" activist, loves the idea of strong women beating up their husbands/boyfriends. I also believe, unlike women, men deserve to have the CRAP beaten out of them by women, just because they are ****!!! But, what are your vies on this?

Vioence is never ok, regardless of who is perpetuating it. The only exception would be in cases where a person (male or female) is being threatened and needs to use violence for self-defense.
This dominatrix-style sexualized violence of women beating up men does NOT empower women, though it may give some women a false sense of empowerment. However, in order to eliminate all forms of discrimination (regardless of its basis), we have to construct a new view of the world and a new view of social relations that is not based in binary ideas of domination/submission.

No! That's horrible. I don't think any man deserves that at all, certainly not the ones I've dated.
Besides I hope feminism can aim for something higher than imitating the worst behaviors of the worst men.
And if Christina Agulera believes this...there's a better reason besides skimpy clothes that she should NOT be a role model for young girls.

No, it's not ok. Violence is bad and should never be used except for self-defense, regardless of gender. I think it's ridiculous to think it's ok for women to beat men and not ok for men to beat women. Neither one should be beating anyone. They should use that thing between their ears to resolve problems that come up, not their fists.

No, you're wrong. Inflicting violence only empowers the evil. It is wrong on all levels. Women are empowered when men treat them right, and we can do this by treating them right. (This does not mean submitting to them.)

Violence is never okay, whether it's man vs. woman or woman vs. man.
If you think men are scum for beating on women (those who do beat woman), then why would you want to stoop to their level? That's not empowerment!

yeah, sure.
c'mon over to my house. Let's wrassle. Winner gets to hit him/herself in the face with a cream pie.
And, by the way, I'd never dirty up my fists or feet on that bleached blonde whore Christiana Aguilera. Bleeech. Catch some nasty disease or something for sure. I wouldn't even chop her up for fishbait unless I was wearing really thick gloves.

This has got to be a joke. If it isn't you need some serious therapy.
Being a bully doesn't empower you, it makes you a coward.

Violence is never acceptable and nobody should be hitting anybody else. Didn't anyone pay attention in kindergarten?

The greatest part of being a woman is that they do not believe in violence. The rarely use their natural advantage of not having testicles, to hurt the balls of men. You should be ashamed of yourself for advocating violence. .
