Have you ever had this happen to you?

I was leaving my local library today, when a woman walked by and grabbed my behind lol

I turned around to look at her in complete shock! But the funny thing is, as soon as I locked eyes with her, she waved at me & blew me a kiss.

Again, I was blown away lol
Well, the reason why that is, if I had done something like that, or any guy for that matter, it would have been considered sexual harrassment.

Now...i've been raised to be a total gentleman. If I were to step out of line & start acting like a jerk, I have a very tough mother, aunts, grandmother, female cousins & female friends who would severely make me regret acting like a jerk lol

Don't get me wrong, I was very turned on by the gesture! What that woman did, made me *blush BIG time...

but is it ok, is it more acceptable for women to do such things in public?

Grabbing anyone you don't know isn't cool. It could be considered assault, regardless of who is doing the grabbing. As EG said, it was lucky for her you were flattered. And kudos to your female relatives for raising a gentlemen. There are far too few of you these days.

No, it's not acceptable, and she's lucky you were flattered rather than insulted by it. Maybe she has some bizarre case of Tourette's that makes her grab cute buns when she sees them!

I think it's become more acceptable, yeah, but I'm not sure if I agree with it because of that inherent double standard. I'm also a bit old-fashioned; if a stranger grabbed my ***, I'd feel the same way as if he'd smacked my face. A guy I know, on the other hand? Bring on the grabs. ;-) Sounds like you enjoyed the experience, though. Maybe she works near the library? Always a good excuse to read, eh? :-)

Hey! she was having a moment in life!!!!!! Give her grace and don't be offended. She may feel bad later, but also she may feel powerful, because she acted on the moment.
Did she make you smile? Accept it as a compliment, a strange compliment, but a true one.

No it's not acceptable, but I guess our society does tend to look away some if a women does it to a guy. And you're right if you had done that to a women she would have had you arrested! Also, if you would have made a scene and told the women off, others standing around you would probably laugh and think you were strange for not liking it.
Let's face it... there is a bit of a double standard in this situation. But it still isn't right....

No. It's not okay for anybody to make any gestures that make another human being feel uncomfortable.

HOWEVER, you're right.. if this was the other way around: this situation could have resulted in a much negative outcome for you. This is because women are emotional (it's a fact, haha just kidding.. sort of).

it is but it shouldn't be. society is full of double standards and as long a sthey exist one group will be able to get away with doing their thing while the rest of us are not permitted to. dumb but real unfortunately.

This is common, I had these experiences to, and worse... Even got licked on by a stranger: from chin to forehead. Sexual harassment is a little more severe in my standard. I would feel if I wasn't raped, but integrity was damaged at the same level.
