The unusual court case “Saverland v Newton”!

A British woman was sued for biting off a man’s nose after he tried to kiss her without consent, according to wikipedia.org. Learn here what was the verdict!

She won and the judge ruled “When a man kisses a woman against her will, she is fully entitled to bite his nose”.

The case was forerunner of sexual harassment cases to come and asserted that a woman was permitted to defend her virtue, by force if necessary.
