Is it OK to be verbally rough on a woman who is being rude to you?

Question

I'm not condoning verbal or physical abuse toward women or anything. I just don't believe that women should be put on a pedestal and be treated with alot of sweets simply because they are women. There are some women out there who are just as obnoxious as a rude dude. I view everybody as people, and if anyone is being rude to me, then I will let hell break loose on them regardless of gender.

If a woman is being nice and sweet, then I will treat her back with sweets.

Answer 1

Ya of course it's OK. Women, not all of you mind you, are always bitching about equal treatment, but often times come back with the saying "Blah blah blah, can't do that I'm a woman." Well here's how i look at it. A woman can't hide behind the shield of being a woman when it comes to them being rude, or worse. If they give it, they should expect to get it right back.

Answer 2

I think that you should have a certain level of control when talking to ANYONE who is rude to you. One thing that you should think about when you are letting hell break loose on a woman is how other people around you are going to react. The cold truth is that a man letting loose on a woman is intimidating and threatening to that woman..where a woman just being rude is not. But again, people are going to be rude, and I am sure you are sometimes even if you don't intend to be, so you should be a better person and walk away and not "let hell break loose" on anyone

Answer 3

I don't think you should take crap from anyone, not even rude women. I think you can speak freely to tell a man or women off who was rude to you. Now about physical hitting someone for insulting you that is a different issue. People that resort to physical fighting are not smart enough to resolve their issues with words. If a rude woman did hit you I would advice to tell her off and walk away because unfortunately if you do hit her back and the cops get involved they usually believe the woman to be the victim, then you would get arrested and have the rude beep just laugh in your face.

Answer 4

As a human being I want to be treated with respect, as a woman I do enjoy the occasional door opening for me.

Now, every one should be treated with politeness and respect. I don't think that you should let loose on anyone. Take the high road. Walk away. When you dump on someone you are putting out to the world that you are open to it, you are asking for more rude behavior.

Take the high road, act respectfully to everyone and the incidents of it happening to you will decrease.

Good luck!

Answer 5

It's OK to be verbally rough with anyone who is being rude to you. It doesn't matter if it's a woman. Women are just people too.

Answer 6

Unfortunately, this is a hard one for me. I would rather die than physically abuse a woman, but yelling often feels like abuse too. I almost always stay calm and discuss with my wife even if she is yelling. She says that I have the patience of an angel, but I don't see it as such. I just don't think I need to yell at a woman.

Answer 7

If she is rude, either leave her company or if unable, give her a taste of her own medicine. Woman or no woman, rudeness is unacceptable and needs to be brought to her attention.

Answer 8

I concur with you. Sometimes I get a little pissed at guys who are always so incredibly nice and saccharine to me. I mean I'm a mature person not a little girl with a doll.

Answer 9

Hell yes. I can dish it out pretty bad sometimes, and then my man puts me back in my place, and beleive me I need it. If the situation calls for it, don't be a pu**y.

Answer 10

People should treat others how they themselves would like to be treated.
