She's our hero. Also, I hope she washed her hands soon after, since she punched a shitface.

these people who say that punching was bad ... DO you have any better ideas?

there was once a time when a reaction in the moment was how something like this was dealt with, then as time went on, people didn't react out of fear of being sued. People lost opinions, the right to react, all down to effectively money and blame. Maybe this could be the start of people getting themselves back. She reacted correctly after being dealt with incorrectly.

Sexual harassment met with violence? Yes, since that seems to be the only way those f*****s understand. Keep your freaking hands to yourself if you don't want to get punched in the face, it's that simple. If every women would react this way and not blame herself for those actions, those a******s would learn it much faster.

Good for her. Maybe that horrid little man will now grow up a bit.

Served him well! Keep your hands to yourself!

I believe it happened. When I was in the Navy in Yokosuka, Japan, one of my female subordinates, Wendy, lifted weights. She was out on a little-used part of the Navy base, guy jumps her, she beats the living snot out of him, end of story .... almost. A couple of days later, she's sitting in the movie theater and overhears a guy in front of her telling his friends how he was jumped by three guys who made the bruises on his face. She looked at him, recognized him, and proceeded to embarrass him by telling his friends he was beat up by one girl. It brings a smile to my face every time I think of it.

Grabbing someone's behind, is an assault, and whoever gets grabbed has every right to protect their persona. If they get floored, the bigger the fool them for trying it, and i'd say that they would be quite deserving.

Seriously - if any man thinks those are "sexy" pictures - he should go back to his egg white omlette and get a life. Strong woman - acting for all of us

I applaud you - he assaulted you, you assaulted him back. Quid pro quo. PS - I think you look amazing. And I would have done (and have done) the same thing.

Guess he's never going to do that again. Well hopefully.

Violence is never the solution, but that guy who grabbed Leanna's butt most likely assumed all women were weak and wouldn't fight back. I feel like he deserved it because it showed him that women aren't always weak and vulnerable.

Why is everyone in here like "and if the role was reversed".... Well it wasn't this is just another day as a attractive female. This happens all the time to women everywhere so stop with the "well what if a female grabbed a guys but" Women have been oppressed, suppressed and disenfranchised by men who sexualize them all throughout recorded history. When that changes we can talk about the "What If's"

and that is the right reaction

i was assaulted many times during a 9 year relationship - broken bones etc - if only i had been physically strong enough to give him what he deserved - she is brilliant!!

I don't think that that punch hurt him if her knuckles are swollen that much. probably aimed for the cheek.

Just don't get guys like this. Yes she is very attractive but why not just try to talk to her or even give her some flowers and ask for her number! (cheesy but I lack imagination in these things). Grabbing her butt is neanderthal at best, assault at worst and not going to get a positive reaction.

I say good for her. But after scrolling through the comments I see plenty of comments with people thinking guys would never get raped by a woman. I was raped by a woman who was not a stranger to me and it was an experience I still feel sickened by.

fortunately - i live in a small town - everyone knows everyone else -have spent time in big cities where every woman alone is vunerable - it IS scary

Ignore trolls. You just fed one...

How did he know she was American? ....

Here’s a good rule: don’t say/do anything to a woman on the street that you wouldn’t want said/done to you in prison...

The Twitter comment said we have police in Ireland. We don't, we have Gardai ;)

I agree with margie's comment that it shouldnt be counteracted with violence! and I dont like how the girl in this post handled it even if what he was doing was wrong! she should not be seen as a hero for punching someone! this is a prime example of how twisted our society is today.

glad she did it. but make me Wonder... if a girl does the same thing and the guy punch her would it be ok? if woman want the same right as mens, men should be allow to punch her right? but it doesn't feel right. and again... equality doesn't exist.

Just yesterday, a friend of my boyfriend come to me online and asked if I would break up with my boyfriend and date him and all of us know that this dude is not the best influence nor would he pass up the opportunity to sexually assault me. This is an issue that needs to be dealt with. I'm fifteen. This shouldn't happen to anyone.

well he may have deserved it but what she did was assault so she's not much better than that s**t waffle.
