I hope they aren’t thinking of something they saw on a TV show and can’t separate fact from a Hollywood script.

That's entirely possible since unlike most men, very few women have ever been in a fistfight. Since they don't have experience as a guide they will rely on something else to make the decision. The fact that they are even asking about manslaughter is not good. It could mean they have rejected the self defense argument. If you find that someone acted in self defense you cannot then find him guilty of manslaughter. A positive finding of self defense trumps everything.
