He would *probably* only have a fearful reaction if the attention was coming from a larger male or from an obviously psychotic female.

Just my two cents.
Most of the time, yes. But ...... when it IS a confrontational asshole, and you're walking with a girl or an elderly person and going somewhere quick it is hard to walk away from sometimes, when they say especially stupid shit, and you're like, "I wish I was alone so I could take a tire iron to your head". The worst actual beat downs I've seen have been groups of teens on one dude. The street assholes never do anything 99.99% of the time, they just try to destroy your quality of life. I do think pitching a few of them off the bridge would get the others to ease up.
