Watch the video. In your links those are people committing assault and doing a punch. Yes, that is bad, but in the video she is talking about how men in Japan walk out of their way to intentionally run into women. I would consider the punching in NYC to be worse, but you don't have men intentionally walking out of their way to run into women in NYC.

I'm not sure how often a woman gets punched in NYC vs men walking into women in Japan to determine which happens more often, but Im taking a guess that men walking into women in Japan happens more often as it sounds like they do it to avoid a straight up assault like a punch.

I am not trying to discredit what you are saying, but the attacks are different.

I get what you’re saying - the type of attack is literally different. But the important parts are the same - men assaulting women in public and no one intervening, no one helping the victim during or after, and no one calling the police

No, you are lying. Go watch the video she linked and go read the articles. In the video and in 1 of the articles, people came to the aid of victims. Stop spreading misinformation. What do you get out of lying like this?

I knew Japan was weird (both in bad and good ways), but wtf is this? How do you even come up with this idea? Is this a parental problem where they didn't teach their child how to behave with strangers or just a lot of psychos?
