Any thoughts? Clearly the guy shouldn't have grabbed her butt, but do you think she went too far? It seems that she wasn't hitting him in self defense; it seems she went after the guy as he was walking away. I hope she got the right guy.

reminds me of that ending cinematic in one of the Dead of Alive games where a man on a train trips cause of turbulence on the track and falls and lands on a female fighter. and she screams and then kicks him so hard he flies out of the train off the track and lands in a lake. and everyone on the train claps.

I'm not saying she should expect to have her ass grabbed, but she obviously has emotional anger problems. And beating the shit out of someone is horrible, and she's saying she's glad she did it. Fuck her.

She took it too far but the guy shouldnt have been grabbing st people just because he wants it.

*shrugs* I dont care what happened to him, but I wont complain if she has to face some charges.

Though If she is in trouble for technically beating him up he should get in trouble for sexual harrassment

I always see it from the point of view of reasonable response. Do the minimum required for self defense, go no further. Grabbing someone sexually against their will is messed up and wrong... But she was in no danger. She didn't have to beat him in self defense. She just wanted to hurt him. Revenge, not justice. Don't care for it.

Grabbing someone's butt is both sexual and physical assault under the law. If the guy had ONLY physically assaulted her, a lot of people would say she was justified in retaliating. But because it was also sexual assault, suddenly it's not okay and she overreacted. But if a guy decks someone for grabbing his girlfriend's butt, how many people would say he deserved it? Guys grope because they expect to get away with it consequence-free. If they were afraid of negative consequences, it would stop.

Some guy grabbed her ass in a club. Sorry but big fucking deal. Of course he shouldn't have done that, but it's not like he grabbed her pussy or raped her. She assaulted him with 10-15 blows. She should be in jail.

basically she went too far. it sounds like she injured him. she could have killed him. one slap would be ok. but beating the shit out of him with a sense of vengeance and then being proud about it, should get you in prison

Yeah but sexual assault isnt taken seriously by the law.

You can get harassed every day, poked or grabbed awhenever guys feel like it, and nothing happens.

And if something very sad happens and someone is raped, the rapist often doesnt end up arrested or gets out for good behavior before long

Theres no real punishment for it

Good on her. She took it too far I'd agree, but sometimes it's hard to stop yourself once you start. He deserved it and I hope he won't do such a thing in the future. Sounds like he might have learned an actual lesson that the law wouldn't be able to teach him.

If he got up and knocked her out he'd be in the right, slapping him in the face or calling the cops if she wants justice is fine, but she committed battery on him.
In fact if they both got arrested she'd probably get more time deservedly.

I'm a very firm believer that if you attack someone no matter your skill level or sex you should expect to be attacked back.

Technically, a grandmother pinching your cheeks is assault. Should you beat the shit out of your grandma? A woman once grabbed my ass probably because she expected to get away with it. Should I have beat her up?

Does context matter when it comes to "assault" and how you react to it?

No, that doesn't qualify as assault under the law. Yes, context matters, and the context here was a male stranger grabbing her butt. If a random gay dude pinched your butt, how would you react? A lot of guys would probably punch him.

I can't believe people are getting upset over this.

If some guy grabbed my butt I'd beat him up too.

If it was a girl, I wouldn't, because she would start crying and I would have five guys on me at once for taking shit way too far.

At least he'll know who to have the assault charges put on lol If he did what she says he did, he deserves some sort of punishment but remember: proportionate response, people.
Good for him for having the self restraint not to clock her back but it clearly went way too far.

This, tbh. After a certain point, it stops being self-defense.

ITT: Prison isn't real punishment. Neither is the sex offender registry, apparently, which kinda kills a person's life.

He deserved it, good for her. 2-3 punches would have been fine, but it's his fault for assaulting her and sending her in to a rage.

Bunch of men are getting worried that their asses are grass now that women will just beat them down!

For being assaulted, and actually standing up for herself?

Sure she took it too far, but he took it too far as well anyway.
Plus a lot of us dont stand up for ourselves. We dont know how and guys tend to be much bigger so sometimes there isnt anything we can do. Its awesome that she stood up for herself.

Assaulting the dude is not an appropriate reaction. Either jail time or a clinic because she is clearly mentally unhinged.

Not quite the same since we are generally physically smaller and less able to defend ourselves so when guys do things they do so knowing theyre safe to.

Still shouldnt happen but its not nearly the same.

And you hear about it much less and likely cant relate to it unless its from a trusted friend playing jokes who knows youre fine with it from her.

So I dont see why you bring it up because the situation is so much less common

And yeah Im sure some guys get soanked by woman and feel uncomfortable when they dont want to. And that sucks.
But that doesnt mean it doesnt matter the 100 more times it happens to women the same day.

I've never beat up any girl, and had my butt grabbed by more than a few girls in my life.

Your position is predicated on:
1) Guys willing to assault girls because they had their asses grabbed
2) Other guys not willing to gain up on men who hit a woman

Good luck proving that practically. if you can prove it in practice, I'll concede your point.

Also fair. Someone grabbing your ass at random? They deserve to be punched. Do they deserve to be sent to the hospital? If you think 'yes', review case law. You can probably hit them, you cannot beat them beyond an unconscious state.

Your next sentence answered your question: she clearly went too far. Considering her psychotic reaction, it's plausible that he may not have even groped her at all -- he may have accidentally brushed her -- and then she blindsided him from behind before he even knew what happened. Given the size difference, it fits the scenario.

Oh I missed this the first look. "A small guy popped down from the platform after a bit, tried to stop her I pulled him back No no no, dont you touch her. He assaulted her. The poor guy looked confused about this woman giving this downed guy a thrashing."


tbh, anybody would be confused by that fucking stupid response. The guy she was with sounds as crazy as she is.

FYI, if a guy beat up another guy for grabbing his (the first guy's) girlfriend's butt, I hope I'd have enough sense to say that the first guy also went too far.

I agree that this woman probably deterred that guy and other guys from groping women; I'm just not sure she should get away with no punishment, since she doesn't seem to have acted in pure self defense. But since she was provoked, that should be a mitigating circumstance.
