When is it okay for a man to hit a woman?

Thunda's hypothetical woman hits hard. Besides, like you said, those two are completely different. I thought we were talking about the same actions. For example, the woman uppercuts a man, and leaves a mark, or the man slaps the woman. Also, if men accept the slap in the face as an emotional statement, so should the women when it's done to them.

In the end, all of this shouldn't happen. I am mentioning all this because of the assumption that this woman hit Thunda already.
