Advice from Old People
Sometimes, just sometimes, old people say something worth listening to. Ok, so it's like picking the needle out of a whole haystack of mis-remembered war stories, but those gems should be celebrated.
Tell us something worthwhile an old-type person has told you.
Note, we're leaving the definition of old up to you, you smooth-skinned youngsters.

It's hard to disagree with the idea that A hitting B is, in most cases, twattish and indefensible. What I don't understand is why the sex of A and B should make a difference.
I also think that violence is sometimes justifiable - again, though, I don't think the sex makes any odds. If someone is about to injure me and the only way to stop them is a (proportionate and no-harder-than-necessary) thump, then they'll get thumped. I'll worry about the chromosomes later.
