But in a civilized society is violence the answer to violence? Then whats the difference between them both?
One type of violence was for sexual gratification and the following violence was to teach the lesson that assaulting women-folk will not be accepted but met head on whenever confronted.

Sometimes violence is the most appropriate and immediate answer to resolve a situation. If it stops somebody innocent being victimised it's justified imo.

I really hope you're just playing devils advocate here.
If someone is going to molest someone in public, the rape isn't far behind & rapists deserve nothing but a quick death.

In other words, you would have stood there and watched a woman be sexually assaulted without saying a word.

I believe the reaction here in the states would be the same as well. And in some cases, the women will just shoot them with their concealed carry and be justified in doing so.

Well, you see, there are laws for some reason, without them a society is no different from barbarism of old ages. Civilized means law abiding. When one section breaks laws, does not mean others should follow. Its like saying when a cat meows in front of you, you respond by barking at it. Why stoop down to the lower sections of society?

I usually agree with you, asen... A lot...
But when sexual aggression/violence comes into it all bets are off and the Law has no say in the matter until after the fact.

Law-abiding does not entail pacifism, especially when the rights of others are being violated.

Ok, consder this. A guy and girl who are friends, gets into a arguement in the bar over some petty matter, a drunk guy sitting beside them, summararily decides it is a case of harrasment, forms a group, beats the # out of him, just for the sake of false bravado, even kills him, then what? I repeat, there are laws in our society for a reason. Put a charge, prove it, convict. 1000s of years have taught us these laws, they did not form overnight.
