This topic touches base on an old and touchy subject; When is it (or is it ever) ok to put your hands on a woman? My mother always told me, " Treat a lady like a lady. If she doesn't behave like one, she isn't one." I'm unsure exactly what she intended with that saying, but I've drawn my own conclusions.
(1) If you behave like a lady, you're entitled to the respect of one. I'll treat this woman with resepect.
(2) If you don't behave like a lady, you're not entitled to the respect of one. I wont give this woman the respect of a lady, but I also wont put my hands on her.
(3) If you decide to put yourself in a man's position, I shall treat you as one. Fair game. If this woman physically tries to square up with/attack me, all's fair.
