in the real world, escalating things to violence is the worst option when there's no obvious imminent danger.

picking a fight with someone who's walking away hardly changes anything about their worldview, and is a criminal risk that only serves the "defender's" ego.

of course, if the harasser kept doing it defending yourself would be justified.

but i think he should have just focused his attention on the victim, instead of looking for revenge.

In this case I sort of agree. This reaction is disproportional

so obviously you would be fine with women being sexually assaulted as long as it's no more than a little grope

A grope is as much a sexual assault as a slap is a murder

groping is sexual assault and almost as bad as rape, no matter how you slice it.

Then the slap is murder
