Viral Debate: Should Men Ever Hit Back When Attacked by Women?

A recent video went viral after a woman said a man should never hit a woman back—even if she initiates violence. She argued that men must walk away, seek help or call the police rather than retaliate. She said she would rather face divorce or legal consequences than be physically hurt by her partner. Her stance has drawn sharp reactions online. Users are divided over self-defense rights, gender equality and how to handle domestic disputes. Many Nigerians are sharing personal experiences and legal advice.

What are your thoughts on a man walking away instead of defending himself physically in such situations?

But does walking away always defuse the tension, or could it sometimes be seen as avoiding the issue entirely?

It's interesting that the video calls for legal help, but ignores how police response times or bias might affect real outcomes.

Insisting men never fight back seems like placing an unfair moral burden on them alone, regardless of who starts the violence.

If avoiding harm is priority, it might help to learn de-escalation techniques or self-defense moves that allow escape without striking back.
