Maybe he has some weird sexual fetish or mental disorder that caused him to want to jerk off in front of people.
That being said, people abusing their authority is nothing new [#PrimaNocta]. It is nice to see that it is no longer being tolerated [at least in this specific arena]. Perhaps this new found sense of empowerment will spread to other areas and we can root out the evils that have been plaguing our governmental, judicial and economical institutions as well.
But I still stand by the fact that I don't feel sorry for people who consent to watching a dude jerk off and then cry about it afterward. Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.

So you're just assuming it was consensual and that's your reasoning to back up your supposed claim? Once again, and I don't think you realize, but you're singling out the victim in this case and giving reason to the abuser. I have too much emotional investment in this particular topic (not you specifically) so I don't plan on discussing this much further. You've already stated how you feel, I disagree. I'm leaving it there before I get too invested in the conversation.
