That’s who referred me to the Coach. I got a chance to talk to the Principal later and told him about it. He said, and I quote “Guy’s a creep, stay away from him”  
So helpful.:smack:

Male here. No, never. And I think my wife has never, also, but she’s asleep now and I’ll ask when she’s awake.

I suppose I should answer the poll as well as read the thread.

Male, yes, by both men and women. Once when I was a kid - I got loose and ran away, and a couple of times by men and a couple of times by women.

I don’t think my experience is comparable to that of women, because except for the childhood incident I didn’t feel threatened - I was bigger and stronger and better prepared to defend myself against the gropers than the average woman is going to be against the average man.

In one instance, it led to a relationship. I don’t know if retroactive consent is a thing or not, or if it affects the legal or moral aspect of sexual assault in my case, but after the fact made a difference. I certainly wouldn’t like it if random strangers were constantly hitting on me or trying to grope me.

FWIW - probably not much.

Regards,  
Shodan
