As despicable as his act was, let's sit back for a minute. How many of you have voiced your outrage at acid attacks on women? This isn't different, except that he committed an offense first (but then, so did a few of those women). In all cases, it's important to criticize vigilantism and cruel and unusual methods of punishment. It is not our place to judge which acts deserve an acid attack and which do. None deserve it.

Losing function of your penis (which is far worse than castration, because sexual urges remain) is a life sentence for the guy. The damage HE inflicted on her is not lifelong. Argue me with all you like but you damn well know I'm right. There is a double standard in society regarding female-on-male assault and it seriously needs to disappear. It does not belong in the 21st century.

Precisely.

A lot of sickos on this thread with their nasty double standards. Feminism still has a long, LONG way to go to achieve its stated goal of gender equality. A true feminist, whether male or female, would not exhibit this double standard.

Oh, so if you hurt, shame or scorn a man, it's not as much of a big deal? What would be your reaction if I made a veiled threat like you just did?

Here you go, in case comprehension is not your strong point:

"if you scorn or shame or otherwise harm a man, you should be fully aware that the consequences may be severe. "

There, how does that sound?

You don't speak on behalf of all women. My wife would be the first one to say that this girl belongs in prison, and that you are an apologist for abusers. Shame on you. You have no empathy for victims of sexual assault - you're truly a psychopath.

I hope no man (or woman) ever makes the mistake of dating an abuser-apologist like you. It's because of sickos like you that we need feminism - true feminism.

Eh, having a damaged penis didn't affect John Bobbit's acting career ! Was it right for her to do it? No, but there is a certain degree of justice here. Guys (and girls) who make public something that should be very private kinda deserve what they get.

There was just this other case where some chick did a selfie of her in bed with some NFL player and she posted it on line. Now she says she was drunk, etc, etc. Very tasteless regardless of if a male or female does the posting.

Yes, and quite easily so. And if not her children, perhaps friends of her children. "Hey Look Bob, I found your mom online!"

Her name is now attached to this story. The internet is permanent no matter how many people try to have their google results removed.

For instance 16 year old girl with 18 year old guy may be considered consensual, but 16 year old girl with 30 year old guy would still be statutory rape in that state.

I agree with this, except I do think he likely ruined her life for good. To people nowadays, the Internet is the first place they look to learn about people. And technology is constantly developing to eliminate privacy at all costs. Nothing on the Internet goes away.

That said, she undoubtedly did more damage to her future reputation by committing an acid attack.

I'm not sure what to think. I was trying to think through this and find an analogy. The closest I could think of (and it isn't the same) is possibly a person murdering a child and the parent being so outraged he/she kills the original murderer. Although what the parent wouldn't have done the proper thing, most people are going to be understanding.

In this case, the girl must have really loved this guy and he betrayed her. He hurt her first and then she was so outraged, she hurt him back harder. I'm not sure prosecuting this case would be worth it except for the lawyers getting richer. She's not likely to be a repeat offender. Both parties are guilty. The guy cannot be made whole again.

The lesson I would tell my kids is keep it in your pants and it will keep you out of trouble.

Yes, this is a terrible thing that she did. She deserves to be punished severely. He did an awful thing, but two wrongs do not make a right.
