It is assault no matter who hits whom. It is unacceptable to be laying your hands on others in anger.

Answer

It is a crime for anyone to hit anyone. The only exceptions are consent (such as two boxers in a ring) or some parental discipline. The gender of the aggressor and the victim are irrelevant.
