While I agree with a lot of what you're saying, try to keep in mind, at least the first time it happened, Isaac was telling Scott to hit him. As a girl, I'm under the impression that that is a guy thing. 'I upset you, hit me, we'll both move on.' Werewolves just have more strength to put behind it, intentionally or not. The first instance I found funny, the second, and seeing his reactions with his dad, has me worried about his control. Which is very not funny. You'll notice that two of the abuse victims on the show (Isaac and Ethan), both have a thing for allowing people to hit them, which is in and of itself a little disturbing. Isaac is used to being hit for pretty much anything that annoyed his father, no matter how trivial. So he may think that inviting Scott to hit him would serve as an appeasement, as it usually did for his father (and perhaps prevent him from getting locked in the freezer). Ethan almost seems to like getting beaten, to the extent that even as an Alpha he allowed Isaac to do it.

Just FYI, no, it is not a guy thing. Guys do not usually invite other guys to hit us as a kind of emotional release. Indeed, that kind of thinking is what later leads to violence against women, because it promotes the idea that occasionally hitting somebody you're close to is a good way to vent tension or resolve issues. For those who do go for that sort of thing, it is usually done in a more formal venue (boxing for example).

I believe you guys are looking way to deeply into this given Isaacs previous emotional abuse. Not everything he does is going to be connected to that. I also dont see how that has anything to do with anythign about hitting women in the future that is a crazy ass leap. Thats like saying watching a violent show like teen wolf is gonna make you violent. Idk where your from or who you grew up around but in my experience yea thats exactly the kinda thing a guy would do. If at anytime one guys like hey i know we're like brothers but  i wanted to kiss your ex who you were in love with. Then yea i could see him being like hit me. Not even in a hard way or some crazy violent way. Hell we don't even know if Scott hit him or just shoved him really hard. The second time actually made more sense to me cause he was basically stalking her. Its all supposed to be meant in jest because Scott clearly isn't hurting him though hes far stronger and easily could. Also to the person who wrote something about its just as much up to the girl and shes not his property yes you are right but calm down. The bro code dictates guys actions towards guys. After they work out what they need to work out then yes the woman can do what ever she wants to do. The guy code is there to be like hey this is whats up are we gonna be friends after it or not. The womans choice in the matter is not gonna affect how the two men interact with one another.
