OK not sure what to make of this........ Is gender politics weird?
And most of those countries listed are Muslim, ergo their 'female only' train carriages are more likely a control means, rather than 'cause of safety'..

You'll simply be left behind when progress does finally happen.
Like in those US colleges where black lives matter protestors are pushing for "Black only dorms" and such.... basicaly wanting to go BACK to segregation..

The only time "Black Lives Matter" is when their deaths can be blamed on whites, often police.
If they really had concern over them, they would be decrying a much more common cause of early deaths among black, and that would be black on black crime, murder and such. But they can't blame white folks for those, so they don't matter.

so, no charges? I wonder what'd happen to a man if he did same thing to a woman in a similar context. hopefully no charges either (after all equality is paramount)

Hey, good for you...but didn't you say in past posts that you'd rather run than fight back if attacked?

Originally posted by aretood2 View PostSo the disproportionate response is justified...I'll remember this for another topic should it ever come up again. I, however, do believe that sometimes a very serious and strong response is needed. That guy will hopefully think twice before inappropriately touching anyone else and will hopefully not even think about going further.
Remember Tood, I am talking about the LAW, not peoples views on what the law should or should not be.sigpicALL THANKS TO THE WONDERFUL CREATOR OF THIS SIG GO TO R.I.G.A lie is just a truth that hasn't gone through conversion therapy yetThe truth isn't the truth

It could have been handled differently, sure, but barring some kind of freak accident, neither act will cause permanent damage. as for it just being a "grab on the butt", that could fall under sexual assault, so is kicking a guy in the nuts.
Sounds reasonable to me.sigpicALL THANKS TO THE WONDERFUL CREATOR OF THIS SIG GO TO R.I.G.A lie is just a truth that hasn't gone through conversion therapy yetThe truth isn't the truth
