Dr. Phil causes panties to wad

[Strings]

I still recall one of the actors at the local ren faire coming into our shop, looking pissed

To paint the picture: black guy, well built (SERIOUSLY dedicated martial artist), 6'+, well spoken with a deep voice (and queer as a $3 bill). He walks in roughly 2 hours after the gates open, and announces that "the kinder/gentler faire is ****ing over!". Turns out that, within the first couple hours of gate open, 3 different women had felt it was acceptable to grope him: not politely, not a caress, but reach out and grab his junk and squeeze.

Have another friend who used to do security at a high-end "gentleman's club". Where the WORST nights were "lady's nights", when they had to put a cage around the DJ's booth (he always wore cheaper suits those night, as they always got trashed)

And I've noticed when wearing a kilt that women think nothing of lifting the hem for a peek. Nevermind that lifting their skirt would get you arrested...

I doubt many would complain about a 40 year old hottie hitting on them

Yeah, she would be 20 years younger than me

Could also be that most guys actually aren't all that physically threatened in these situations.

Face it. It's a little different when your harasser is bigger, stronger and faster than you.

and it's scary as hell when he's drunk (BTDT)

Guys getting such attentions from woman just aren't in the same potential physical situation. Even if she is a 300 pound she-beast. Yeah, she'd squash you if she got a hold on you, but I'm pretty sure most guys can run faster than the blob.
Yeah, sure, it's just words, but when you've been taught to be very aware of few times it isn't just talk, it gets the nerves jumping.

And before anyone jumps on me for saying all this, I live in a town that has just become very aware of potential threats from seemingly "harmless" attention paid to young ladies. Multiple woman have been kidnapped, raped and murdered, and it's been made pretty clear that Jesse Mathews did some catcalling of his own.

Not 300 lbs or a blob .... but scarey enough.....

Tequila

Seen that in action.  Saved one room mate from himself one night.  A different time, a different room mate, not so much.  But, then, he wasn't up on his half of the rent like he shoulda been...

My roommate was not so kind. Thankfully no phone cams back then but current wife did see the result of my tequila blindness and teases me almost 30 years later

Of course I could not save the buddy who married the stripper named Tequila.  I wasn't the only one who tried.  One staff sergeant gave him the gentle fatherly advice, "Ranger, any woman who would willingly marry you is not a woman you'd want to marry."

Tequila was easy on the eyes, hard on the ears, IMO.

I've witnessed and been "victim"* of it.  It isn't restricted to fiction, strip clubs, or bachelorette parties.

*hardly bragging, it isn't exactly flattering when it isn't welcome.

Me as well.  Once at a funeral when I was on burial details, I had a couple fifty something's grabbing at my blues and trying to grab my junk.  I was not flattered.
I did get cornered by a group of sorority sisters at a bar in Mexico once.  That experience, though....
They were really aggressive.....

But I bet you're not scarred for life either. Not that it makes it any more right, just that the genders are indeed wired differently.

Trust me, he's scarred for life.

Just not for the reasons you'd think.
