Yeah, but... you just can’t mutilate someone because they MIGHT do something worse in the future. I’m all for throwing water on him, but not causing third degree burns. Ice cold water would probably have gotten the point across well enough. Or hot, but not scalding. 110 degrees, I’d understand. 170? That’s overkill, that’s permanent damage, and she’ll be lucky if she doesn’t get sued or charged down the road.

So, in hindsight, we can all agree that she should have waited, checked the temperature of the liquid to make sure it was only tepid, and ask the perv to wait a minute for it to cool before tossing a drink dressing on his junk.
Or just steam clean the perv bastard and make him leave out in two seconds.
Easy choice for the rest of us, i’d guess.
Behavior that gets rewarded, gets repeated.
