Women..would you ever slap a man?

I did once. I was 17. He got fresh. I slapped him, just like I saw the women do in the movies. He did not become chastened like I saw in the movies. He became enraged and knocked the hell out of me. Knocked me clear across the room with a back hand.
I would never hit a man, unless I was able to actually knock him out or incapacitate him long enough to get away.

Have you ever slapped, or hit, a man in anger and what was his reaction?
