If this is your general manner of thinking, I would highly suggest educating yourself on the subject of sex crimes. Women are far more likey to be raped by someone they know than a stranger, often times by their boyfriend or husband. You're talking about a woman who has not had sex with this person for whatever reason but lets assume because she's not comfortable with that yet. To have someone invade your bedroom, stark naked, blocking your exit, and knowing that you have not yet consented to having sex with them could be very frightening. We also don't know what exchange went on before she did what she felt she needed to in order to protect herself.
Yes, one of the basic moves taught in women's self defense is a knee to the groin because it is effective in temporarily disabling a man. Classes are free on college campuses because sexual assaults are all too common. I'm sure that it is difficult for some men to understand the level of alert that women must nearly always be on, but then, these are usually the same men that love to say that a woman was asking for it when they go to a bar and drink and are then assaulted. That, however, is another subject.
As far as my intelligence on the subject goes, I assure you that I'm well educated. No, I don't necessarily assume that a man is going to rape me if he comes charging into my bedroom naked without my consent, but sometimes you have to do something called "erring on the side of caution", you have to weigh your options and consequences and then take the most appropriate action to keep yourself safe. Perhaps she could have asked him to sit down and discuss his actions and motivations with her, but she instead chose to take what likely seemed the safest option, to disable him and get away. I can, of course, only guess at what really happened since all I have to go on is second hand, partial information, but from what was presented it doesn't sound like she went off the deep end or anything.
I can see what you mean, and in a world where every woman was attacked once a week then your'e very right, every man who has less clothing on thatn you'd like deserves a kick in the balls.

I know you're a kid, so I'll just say show the original post to your dad and have him explain this guy's error in judgement to you.
I didn't say he was right to walk into the room naked, i said the oppositem an di think you need to read the thread, and i think the fact that you can't hold up an argument against a 16 yr old without talking personal digs wouldn't be too stupid, if you hadn't already stated that you are more intellegent than me, based on my age and not based on intellegence. Read what i said, walking in to someones room naked expecting to "get some" is a stupid thing to do, but its no more stupid than kicking someone in a potentially lethal place on the suspicion that they MIGHT attack you. I would just like to clarify, self defence classes are to defend yourself? Not to make sure you can never get attacked by kicking anyone when you think they might attack you, am i right? DO you go into self defense classes and lesson one is "if in doubt kick someone in the balls", "ok, the number one reason for women getting attacked is because they wait to long before kicking people, if you think you might be attack, if someone is walking too fast towards you, if they are naked, kick them, problem solved".
