What is a man suppose to do here?

That is a wrong question. In the end, you can see there was a police officer (or a guard) present. The person who needs to protect people from attacks has not restrained the woman from committing the attack. You can bet that if the man defended himself the same person would intervene on the woman's behalf.

This is why you learn BJJ. Defend yourself without harming the woman.

Should’ve put her in the Dagestan wrist lock.

this is the norm, most domestic violence is started by women yelling and hitting their partners and it only becomes a problem when a male fights back

You have every right to lay her ass out there

I would rather fight back and go to jail than letting someone disrespect me like that

Za__guy · 2023-08-04T12:46:45+00:00

I don't know. maybe punsh her in the face or defending yourself?

What should one do in those cases? 2 possibile ways to handle this:

catching her arms, preventing her to hit you and yell a the police to do something instead of just watching
do not block her so the world can see how far a person can go, even if their a woman. Then use the video in the court and/or build it up to a mediatic phenomenon and involve institutions, like MRA movements in the country. It seems the guy took the second route.

This is clearly a case of assault and there are a few things a victim can do.

Number 1, try to get away. While it may not always be safe to run, as this can provoke some abusers more, if you can escape safely, do so.

One way to increase your ability to get away is to loosen your grip on the abuser or their clothing. It may seem counter-intuitive, but it is nearly impossible to get to a safe distance if you maintain a strong grip on their outfit. Some abusers may even see this as an aggravating act, or that you're not really suffering from the abuse since you continue to hold onto them and won't let go, even when they tell and hit you.

Stoically standing and taking the abuse while your being recorded with a security guard or police watching will not help! It may even make some start to think there is much, much more to the story.

The other thing is to later call the police or ask that charges be laid for assault.

There is no jurisdiction in the world where slapping and punching someone without consent is legal.

If this is India, as a commenter suggests, it's illegal under a.352 of the Indian Penal Code. That is, unless it was provoked by grave and sudden means. But we don't know that because we don't see what happened before. .

In my state we have castle doctrine which says you are allowed to meet force with force, women are not immune, you can hit back if it's for the purpose of stopping her from hitting you.

Vegetable_Ad1732 · 2023-08-05T03:52:18+00:00

When it gets this bad you HAVE to defend yourself. At least block or grab her somehow.

SurgeStories · 2023-08-05T18:05:18+00:00

This one is easy. Just duck and dodge. They can’t hit you if they can’t reach you.

KrazyJazz · 2023-08-04T12:33:28+00:00

One thing is certain, he doesn't have to take it like this guy did. Gauging range, footwork and blocks. You don't need to be Mohamed Ali to deal efficiently with such a sausage, even if she's turbo angry. One big no-no though, do not knock her sorry ass out. And film everything.
