I say it's a basic human skill that's important.

OK, I don't think its a moral responsibility. Take your own risks.

It's not a moral responsibility if it's just concerning yourself. Nobody has a moral responsibilty to preserve their own safety or life.

Well, that is my point so I don't know where we have gone here.

No! I am saying that we are less sympathetic to male victims of violent crime coz of a perception they should be able to defend themselves.

Being able to fight may or may not be important given the situation. Having those skills is decidedly good. Also very attractive.
