a guy grabbed a girl's breasts and said "breasteses"


She seemed like a frail, boop-boop-bee-doop kind of girl. It shocked me when she used martial arts to beat up the guy who grabbed her breasts. His friend laughed, and she said "Oh yeah?" and started beating him up instead. She had no right to do that. He never did anything to her!

I kinda wondered if with that scene, the director intended to make some kind of commentary on how an act of physical assault perpetrated by a woman on a man is treated differently were it the other way around?

Then again, for how long have these double standards even existed, and would a woman in real life in let's say modern day America get far less a punishment for assaulting a man physically than a man would if caught if he assaulted either a man or a woman?
