Can wife-beating ever be justified?


Additional Details
It's odd -if I asked "can beating a child ever be justified?" I imagine a good third of you would reply, "yes, within certain limits, it's necessary for discipline" or "it never did me any harm" etc.

There is an ancient law in Britain that states a man may legally beat his wife, providing the stick is no thicker than his thumb. From this we get the saying "Rule of Thumb".

The answer is no, dumb@ss.

No. And neither can husband-beating or child beating.

You don't hit girls.

Ever.

Period.

Not only would I never beat my wife, I'd kick your *** if I saw you beating yours.

No - you weirdo.

No. Not for any reason. Restraint, which is stopping her from hitting you, is fine. Hitting her is a no-go.

You're kidding, right? I can't think of anything that a wife or husband could do to justify a beating. If you hate the person that much, walk out and leave. No need to assault them.

No there is never any justification, I amazed the question could even be asked! If a man is ever angry , been hit himself or done wrong by he should walk away , no matter what.

No.
But then if she was constantly beating you up and squeezing your nuts, then maybe.
But I think you probably need that to happen, for asking stupid questions like this.

Never. There are other civilised ways to express oneself.

Don't even think about it.

Even the police won't be able to protect you from her wrath...


?
No... but, it is possible that the perpetrator has issues from their past, habits in their present, lack of social skills through inherited weaknesses, and learning difficulties, that prevent them from understanding, that hitting out is wrong, and that they never learned negotiation skills etc... in this area of relationships.
