I don't agree with or like the millions of selected pronouns either but I'm not sure what you're saying here otherwise... Any case of an individual attacking or harassing another individual SHOULD be viewed through gender neutral eyes. It shouldn't be seen as "worse" or "more shocking" for a man to attack a woman than for a woman to attack a man... Why would "he" attacked "her" have more impact than "she" attacked "him"? It should be totally irrelevant... The only relevant factors are the severity and the outcome.
