Are women really capable of hurting each other that badly in a hand to hand fight?

[billyon2wheels]

yes they can

[DottiD]

Anyone is capable of inflicting really bad damage or injury to anyone else, it goes without say .
What is in question is the level of damage or injury that each fighter is willing to go to.
Naturally the power a male carries will make it easy to say they do or cause more,but it's a different mental outlook I feel.
Women while powerful in our right, carry that defense mechanism or maybe better put common sense that helps us on the average not be quick to jump into a fight,while it can be argued the reasoning I truly feel it is the fear of what 2 women will do to one another once that line is crossed and facing a fight is accepted internally, once 2 women enter a conflict and get past the emotional roller coaster of which,fear,hate,jealousy,thrill,and more charge their adrenaline , any 2 women will use anything,everything they can to not just be the victor,but we have a hidden "need or desire" that comes out to damage the other woman's beauty,self respect and confidence,we want ensure our rival will not come back for more.
I am sure the men can answer their part better,but to me the male fights I have witnessed it tends to end on it's own more quickly and with more consideration of how bad it can get.
I guess in a way it's a funny thing,2 men will fight at the drop of a hat over nearly anything,while women I general will try to avoid it ,yet once it begins men end it fast and somewhat respectful while women will dig nails bite and pretty much try to ruin each other , tickled spiecies we humans for sure

Years ago I didn't believe that women could really hurt each other when fighting, but in more recent years I've found that isn't true.

If you look at some of the vids posted on youtube (those that haven't been taken down by the YT morality police) or any of the vid hosts, there are some truly vicious girl fights.  Two stand out in my mind.  One was done for Felony Fights.  The winner of that fight was ruthless in beating the living shit out of the other girl.  Even when the losing girl was crying and yelling that she gave in, the girl on top wouldn't stop beating her.  It was rather sickening to watch, in my opinion.

The other was just two girls, perhaps high school age, and the girl on the bottom got a hell of a beating.  Whomever posted the vid got a good closeup of the loser's face.  Her forehead was covered in huge welts from being beaten.

I truly believe the way girls fight today is why some girls can really get hurt.  Today, girls fight like guys, at least younger girls do.  Little hair pulling, unless they're holding on with one hand full of hair and using their other fist.  The girls stand toe to toe and slug each other with their fists.  The old fashioned catball, hair pulling catfight is almost extinct.  Too bad.

To me, catfights were sexy.  I know that to the average person out there, that sounds terrible.  But I have to admit it.  If I didn't find them sexy, I wouldn't give them a second thought.  And I'd bet that many, if not most folks on this forum find them sexy or arousing too.

Sorry for my long winded reply.

A lot of fights, of both sexes, would not have happened had the participants not been drinking. Alcohol lowers the inhibitions, and drunken brawls, male or female, can be nasty!

[dfoulup]

I think many of us (including myself) have a fantasy of what a makes a catfight:  a little slapping, hair pulling, rolling around.  Think 'rules' catfight.  Then there is the reality which includes watching MMA fights by both males and females not to mention the alcohol to which another person refers.  I've even heard of a woman being attacked by another woman with a broken beer bottle.  NOT the let me slap your face and let's roll around stuff of fantasy.   Shit yes, woman can hurt each other in a fight.

Men are not the issue they fight they settle it and it is over, woman on the other hand is another story. In 38 years as an Emergency Physician the number of times we as a team have had to intervene in drastic ways to save a life has been remarkable. What a way to hone skills and became very good at suturing wounds as all to often bodies were invaded with objects not designed to be placed in them 

The disturbing factor is that not all of them are bigger woman. Alcohol and drugs are still the biggest issues in violence between men and woman it is just that woman never settle it in a way that is dignified. The mouths and attitude of some women these days shocks me and I have interns that laugh when they are told to always watch a woman that has been drinking, is drugged and smaller that you.

 I have seen them do massive damage not only to one another but anyone that can get in their way. So where many here take his as an enjoyment and a way to unwind let us not forget of the seriousness that can come from it at times in a world that is so badly broken and you many people care about no one but themselves.

Any anecdotes?

Having been on both ends, I can affirmatively say that the answer is "hell yes."

I think if both women are having serious issues with each other, and things between them get really bad, it can get physical. And when that happens, yes, both women can get hurt. It almost happened to my wife with a woman she worked with. They almost got into a fight at work, but luckily they were kept apart. It was at a staff meeting. Had it been just the 2 of them alone, it could have happened. And both would have gotten hurt because they had so much dislike for each other.

you know you've mentioned previously that they would close together after the fact (and that the other woman hinted about fighting long after this incident), how in the world did they manage to do that without fighting? I'd love to know, seems like being alone would provide the perfect opportunity......

They worked for a bank, wife was head teller, other woman asst. manager.I think that if there wasn't a staff meeting that morning, the 2 of them would have been in the bank by themselves. All week long the other woman got on my wife about something, don't remember what, and by then my wife had with her. With no one around to get in between them, I think they would have gone at each other.
