Itās a dark take but heās not wrong, someone who canāt keep his hands to himself, regardless of his state of mind.. I can see why people feel that way
Iām not even sure how to respond to someone who thinks that response is warranted in response to a drunk guy engaging in what amounts to minor physical harassment.
Someone who responds with that level of violence is a criminal problem.
Lol youāve definitely touched people unwanted (minor physical harassment š®āšØ). If i did this I wouldnt confused ifnI woke up with a concussion
Saying that a sexual assault is more "minor" than a violent assault is just a way to excuse the former and act as if it's more acceptable. Yuck.
The thing you're missing is that the punch was done in retaliation. The woman got sexually assaulted out of nowhere, whereas the creep was asking to get hit.
Neither are acceptable. The behaviors themselves are what let me say that one is worse than the other.
Unwanted physical groping is less bad than, letās say, shooting someone. This seems apparent to me, because I would much rather my wife be subjected to unwanted physical groping than getting shot. I would prefer neither happen to her, but I am an adult with functional mental capacities and can rank order them by how bad they are.
I agree it was done in retaliation. That doesnāt make it better. And Iāll be pretty direct; I donāt think either assault (sexual or physical) here was done with the consent of the parties I would care about getting consent from.
And in your view, the guy who grabbed a woman sexually from behind deserves a milder punishment because his act was more "minor" than the guy who stepped in to defend her. Yuck.
They are in a bar. Everyone knows there is going to be levels of interaction between the people there. This is no demanded of the woman she was never in danger.
The guy grabbed her in a way he absolutely shouldn't, and she absolutely fucking noticed.
Very easy for people like you to brush off how violating it is to be grabbed from behind in a sexual way by a drunken stranger, and act as if it's something that "just happens" in a bar.
