Dear Ann Landers,
hat is so terrible about slugging a woman if she darned well deserves it? This United States of America is the only country in the world where the practice is frowned upon. As a result, our women are the most spoiled and certainly the laziest in the world. As for the pain of a slap, it is nothing compared with the suffering a man must endure from the razor-sharp tongue of an enraged female. In the heat of battle, one sure way of ending the discussion is to give the offending party a sound crack across the mouth. This is why a policeman carries a gun and why we need an H bomb. We never want to use it, and hope we never need to, but it's a good thing to let the opposition know it's there-just in case. -Michael S.
