Men, if your partner got attacked right in front of you and you chose to not retaliate but to get her to safety would that mess with your head later? Women would you see your partner as less of a man?

I read this story on Reddit from a guy whose wife was being bothered by a a homeless person and the husband deescalated the situation and removed him and his wife from danger. Apparently this made the wife look at her husband as weak and she claimed she doesn’t feel safe going out with him anymore. Now I asked my wife and she said making sure she was safe would be what she wanted, now I’m curious how others would feel.
