      Nope, exactly the same.

      It’s more common for a woman to hit a man as a self-defense, but this doesn’t mean women are not capable of an assault, it does happen and is no less violent.

      We should look at the exact circumstances, not genders.

        I agree that violence is violence, however, the legal repercussions are very often not the same, the public repercussions are often not the same.

      So, if I hit Rhonda Rousey with my weak-ass jab and she uppercuts me through the ceiling in response, I should still be the one who gets the harsher punishment, right?

      Dumbass misandrist logic. Just accept that no one should be hitting anyone and punish violent abusers equally.
