Temper? It's all peace and love here, m8!
The way I usually react to being flipped off is to chuckle or "PFFFHT" or "MEH" and give them a wave of dismissal (bat the fly). It amuses me.

If she was fuckable, you could offer her a go on the hood of the car.

Don't let a few seconds of aggravation turn into something that impacts the rest of your life.

Don't let a few seconds of aggravation turn into something that impacts the rest of your life. You got that right, m8. Never try to prove your manhood to a fool. It only results in legal problems, loosened teeth, or even worse, and it can have lifelong repercussions. Best to walk away!

Agreed! Five seconds of understandable anger can ruin the rest of your life

A girl flipping off a guy could be interpreted a couple ways. It could be a declaration, "Fuck YOU!" Or, it could be a question, "fuck you?"
I like to interpret it as being a question. So, I say either, "No, but thank you for the offer." or "Sure babe, lets get it on!", depending on who's asking.

Hmmm....a Federal court ruled the other day that giving someone the middle finger is protected free speech. Don't get too excited though, I am sure it will be reversed on appeal...I would argue that the middle finger is an incitement to violence and thus not protected free speech.
Richard Behrens in his book said women have what he called "gender courage", which means they are reasonably confident that a man will not punch them out, so they feel free to act badly.

The "Almost" King strikes again! Yes I'm surrounded by fucking idiots and they don't die out. You know I go around, I'm friendly, I treat everyone with the same respect doesn't matter if they're a homeless person or a CEO. I treat people like I want to be treated myself and I keep getting shit like this in return. I really should've beat his ass just to see her reaction. Surely she would've learned something. I'm still thinking about it and it pisses me off because this silly goose prolly thinks I was scared. I hate people like that. People that think they're better than everyone else because they have money and drive an expensive car. They think they can do anything and are superior. As if they're a class above you. How are they better? I could've killed her guy stone dead if I wanted. Who would stopped me. I did over 5 years of kickboxing training when I was a teenager because I had some trouble in school. Maybe that's why I didn't do it because I knew I could execute it if I wanted. But still I really would've liked to teach them a lesson. If only people wouldn't sue all the time and there was no legal consequences.. Older people say it was different back then. You had a good ol brawl and the dispute was solved. Nowadays they sue you.

You DID the right thing justregularguy. Be proud of that. She wanted some type of reaction and failed at the attempt. Karma catches up with those type of folks in due time.

...You know I go around, I'm friendly, I treat everyone with the same respect doesn't matter if they're a homeless person or a CEO. I treat people like I want to be treated myself..... Good! I do the same, and I seldom have hassles with people. .....I really should've beat his ass just to see her reaction. Surely she would've learned something..... Ask yourself why you think she would learn anything. Maybe she would have, but probably not. The shock of it would ruin any lesson she might learn. It would probably set off a sense that you were irrational and violent. I don't call that a lesson. ....I'm still thinking about it and it pisses me off because this silly goose prolly thinks I was scared.... Who gives a fuck if she thinks you were scared? Why should you care what she thinks? Why let your speculation about what she thinks of you ruin your day? You can't control her perception.
Look m8, it's time to take a deep breath and just be glad you didn't do something incredibly stupid and indefensible. Save fighting for legitimate self defense, for when the situation leaves you no alternative to fighting. Fight only to escape death or serious injury.
And by serious injury, I'm not referring to hurt feelings or bruised ego. I'm talking about bodily injury. Let this whole megilla go and quit nursing resentments.
Sorry if I seem unsympathetic. But you're letting a minor incident to cause seething ruminations, and that doesn't do you any good. Sure, she sought you out and flipped you off a couple of times. But there's no good reason to see which one of you can throw a bigger hissy-fit. Her boyfriend may have been trying to calm her down if he's at all rational. You don't really know. The trouble with pissing contests is that everyone gets wet, and that dampens your spirits and makes you need to do your laundry.

One day she's going to be on the end of someone who will make her wish she never got up to those stunts. Her nemesis will impress on her personage that she should never try on things that she can't finish. Her karma will have arrived in force, and she may indeed end up being able to whistle without pursing her lips.
Said Nemesis will then find him/herself with two major problems. His/her Court case, and his/her sentence. Possible large medical bills, possible loss of freedom.
Why be that Nemesis ? Get over it and get on with your life. Why allow a minute or two (at most) of annoyance to shag up your day, let alone the week or more.
