Real question. Does getting dick punched in space hurt?

This was a serious conversation at my job today. My boss says that since there is no gravity in space the force would just push the punched and the puncher away from each other with no damage taking place. I say the force will be lessened but it will still cause damage. Thoughts? Edit: this thread now stands as a monument to my bosses lack of physics knowledge and my lack of confidence in my knowledge of physics.

  • If you were able to get to each other without floating away you're lucky. But when you manage to get to each other you are probably holding on to each other, if you weren't you wouldn't even be able to land a punch. So you are holding on to them and then punch them which would still hurt even after you let go of them because it would be like being instantly hit with a force and it then pushes you back.
