I shot one when I was just 13 and it didn't bother me much. it DOES kick enough that you need to keep your eye a little bit back from the scope though. i got a bruise on my forehead one day when i was sighting it in. but really it doesn't kick much. if you weigh more than 130 pounds you should be just fine

In the overall ratings the recoil of any bullet fired from a Marlin.30-30 compared to some other .30s it is not that bad if you are accustomed to shooting center fire rifles which fire heavier bullets. If you are a beginner wear adequate ear protection and protective glasses. Hold the rifle tightly against your shoulder, if the gun is scoped be sure you are seeing a "full circle" through the lens, and be ready for a smart shove when you pull the trigger. After a few shots you will be used to this process and it will seem easy. Good rifle choice.
