Man was right calling the police instead of responding violently. I don't agree with prison time however. Knocking a hat off someone's head and acting like a boor shouldn't be a prison sentence. She should be fined and given some community service - preferably she should be forced to volunteer selling those hats .
I've read over and over how "back in my day" we wouldn't have allowed a little name calling bother us as kids. About how kids are soft today. about how the "greatest generation" went and fought both the Germans and Japanese.
Etc, etc etc. No? I've made all of this up?
How would this guy have been treated 50 years ago if he had called the police because a woman knocked his hat off and said mean things to him?
Fifty years ago the female may have had her face punched and people would have said "she deserved it."
It was best he called the police to tamp her down before he did something to get himself in trouble by hurting her.
He is so weak that he is going to lash out at some women knocking his hat off?
Stop using sexist talk. If some man knocked off a hat off a woman - we both know you wouldn't be calling her weak for calling the cops.
Man can't be expected to just bottle injustices inside, and since we can't react violently either, it's best to just the call the cops. Shame on you for perpetuating toxic masculinity.
