I can answer not for my wife, but my daughter. She was in high school, a tall beautiful girl, very shy. Some the boys set her up so that when she was reaching up to get stuff out of her locker, they were on the ground looking up her skirt. When she turned around and saw what was going on she kicked the nearest offender in the ribs. My daughter was a star soccer player, her kick managed to break one of the young man ribs. He was taken to the ER for immediate treatment.
That afternoon I found myself in the principals office with my daughter and the parents of the young man with the broken rib. The boy had told his parents an entirely different story about my my daughter kicked him, something about he was picking up a book when my daughter assaulted him. Of course when my daughter told her side, which was verified by witnesses, the boys dad just said "he got what he deserved."
