This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

You're both skipping over consent; if the genders were reversed, would you consider it normal for men to touch women however they want until they're told to stop?

I responded to the person above me implying that OP should end the grabbing with interpersonal skills alone. Obviously no one should be grabbed without consent in the first place.

Paraphrasing the person you responded to: "Don't talk to HR/sue, use your interpersonal skills to stop the problem" You: "Could be that anon is too socially inept to say something"

Your response makes sense in context, all I'm saying is keep your eye on the ball; the actual problem here is consent and so if these hypothetical women are breaking it they should feel the consequences like men would.
