I'm finding the public reaction to a person firmly detaining a potentially dangerous intruder rather depressing. If it had been a man firmly frogmarched out there wouldn't be a fuss, because we all know men are a threat to civilisation.
Yes, I know man v woman contact is always going to be problematic, no matter how equal we're supposed to be. But I'd rather be in his position now, feeling I might have over-reacted, than sitting at home wondering if I could have stopped someone getting killed or seriously wounded. The message we're in danger of giving terrorists is that as long as you come in as a woman waffling about a legitimate issue you'll be able to do whatever you want and get as close to anyone in power as you need.
As a society we are completely doomed. China is going to take over the world while we in the West tie ourselves in ever tighter knots trying to second guess every action everyone ever takes to avoid offence. The world is not going to be made safer, fairer, or less environmentally porked by everyone whipping out their phones and broadcasting disruption on Instagram rather than taking action. I agree with Greenpeace on that at least.
