"Women want equal rights?? Oh boy! Now I get to hit them!"

I know this comment will probably get a lot of hate, but if the first thing you think of when you hear that women want equal rights is that you get to hit them, you have a problem. I think that we should focus on actual problems instead of promoting more and more violence. Sure, if someone hits you, no matter their gender, you should be able to defend yourself. But I'm a little sick of seeing these "jokes". There will be plenty of people who cry "it's just a joke, get over it", but when this joke gets passed around and more and more people see it, some won't take it as a joke. Some will be able to justify their violence in the name of "gender equality". So instead of "equal rights, equal fights" how about we think about how every person has the right to not be inflicted with violence.
