  Why not the masher NOT be a dick in the first place? If this was an isolated incident, then what you say is reasonable. When it happens often, the deterrent clearly needs to be greater. And when you factor in average strength, generally restrictive clothing of the day, social norms, lack of rights. Bugger it, you may as well take a mile as an inch, you'll be prosecuted the same either way.
