I felt a hand on my breast. And I threw my right hook. It's a punch that requires you be close to your target, and doesn't take much room to hit properly.
SOB gasped in pain and got off at the next stop.

If the cops can't do anything about some motherfucker whacking off on me, they have no excuse for doing something about me using a couple jillion volts on his taint.

She is my hero, most days.

With the modern prevalence of tasers and the ease of fist-to-genital contact, these guys are, no pun intended, really taking their lives into their own hands.

And the fact that so many are sex offenders is creepy. Sort of makes the argument that these guys think they're offering compliments, or that they're totally harmless, a little harder to believe.
I'm sure everyone at hollabacknyc.com is happy!

I have, however, been subway harassed. Usually later at night, uncrowded car. It's the worse and has given me on a taxis only late night rule.

ETA: Not that they couldn't lead to good conversations with kids of the right age.

I feel so horrible for women who have experienced more extreme (i.e. someone jerking off on them) harassment. Something like that might put me off the train for a few days.

I feel as though I've missed out on so many opportunities to be harassed and/or entertained.

And since it's banned book week, I think I will pull out my copy, with all the good parts highlighted, that I stole from my sister when I was in 6th grade and give it a read this weekend.

Oh Flowers in the Attic. So trashy.

It still kind of shocks me, though, when women admit they don't, not because they aren't interested, but because women aren't supposed to. Until fairly recently, it never even came up in girl porn, at least not that by American authors (I'd see it in Australian ones). It seemed much more palatable to these female characters to lie awake at night in desperate longing. That was never really my style. I had enough problems with insomnia without adding intractable sexual frustration to the mix.
