I mean whats the big deal if a guy rubs up against you is that offensive or something?

How is touch so awful? OMG I TOUCHED U whats so bad about that? its not like i killed you or i cut out your eye or something

girls need to be more relaxed and accept that ppl touch you and there is nothing wrong with touch its not offensive and its perfectly human nature for others to touch you.

im sick of the prudish women lately epsecially in the USA right now where i live who throw a big fit if u accidentall even bump into them and ur hand touches them

listen touch isn't the end of the world u weren't psychologically scarred if a man touches u in some way get a life plz and stop being so prude in the wrold u really ruin guys life by makin all this crap offensive

Ehm....i dont know where to begin really..
If somone touches me and i dont want to be
touched i get angry. Same goes for many
other men and woman. No means no no matter
how you feel about it, its the other persons decision.
And you might get "pervert" stamped on your
forehead after a while if behaving like this. That
label does not come off easily.

Accidental touch doesn't bother me.
If you walk up to me and grab my ass or something though, that's just not acceptable. Especially if you're a random stranger.
Hmmm, trying to think of other examples....
Brushing past you- okay. Humping your leg- not okay.
Anything that hurts, such as stepping on your toes, a hard bump, you should at least stop and apologize for.
Those obviously staged brushing "accidents" where you're just going for a free feel and trying to act innocent, not cool. I think most people can tell the difference here.

If i were a woman noticing some stranger rubbing against
me on a buss or something, i would knock him out cold
and then follow up with kicking him repetedly in the groin
area. And he better not complain one bit about it.

If i were a man (which i am) and experienced the same
with a man, i would do the same as mentioned above.
If a woman did it, i would be stern and ask her to stop
and remove myself from the situation (unless i was cool
with it of course).

yeah but why is it women think this way?

You never hear about a woman copping a feel on a guy or a gy reporting any girls touchhin him for harassment

i dont understand why this only is done by girls

I mean is instinctive for them to not want to be touched or are they taught this from a parents or what is going on?

Well, then hello. I have never reported anyone (off course) but it has happened
i have said no and gotten annoyed at someone with too graaby hands - it works
both ways. People are different. I dont drop my pants if i dont feel like it, no
matter whos trying to get in them. There are such things as guys thinking not only
with their groin area, belive it or not.

I dont mind it if a woman rubs against me as she's brushing past me but I sure as bloody hell DO mind if a man does it!
Most people dont like unintented/unwanted physical contact with strangers as it is a violation of their personal space.
HOWEVER, when women are drunk they often dont seem to mind accidental contact as in a man rubbing against them but
I dont think the OP was talking about fondling.

Show them the respect they deserve and treat them nice.
You`ll come along way with that and a little luck. They are
people, just like you.

Guess you just haven`t met the right one, if you are nice
and respectful maybe some girl notices you out on the
town and track you down one night - who knows, weirder
things have happened- start out a little slower, ease into it

Why are men and women so different?
Women read romance
Men read porn

I don't know why. It's just the way it is.

I am masculin and I dislike being touched without anticipation. I think being a bit upset about people who cannot hold their hands to themselves is
a) totally normal
b) not specific to women

If someone touches me deliberately without me wanting it, I will get a bit angry about it. And I am not female. It is just basic politeness to not do such things and keep your hands to yourself, not?

Besides, if you were a woman, would you like random strangers to grab your breasts or pinch in your buttocks? Any decent person would never do that, otherwise if you do you should not be surprised to get a slap in the face. And a well deserved one.

I`m a man, and i have been lonely for some time now but
that doesn`t mean i would just do it if i got a change, just
to do it. I get the feeling thats the common wiew on men.
We`re different, both woman and men.

I'm a guy and I sometimes get touched out of nowhere as well. Idk how many times some one (girl or boy) pinched my butt without me even knowing who it was. I don't really care and I don't make a scene out of it. But I can understand that others would. Violating some one's body without their permission is just rude.

Next to that many girls are being taught to be a person instead of an object. Letting themselves being touched just like that makes them look like an object. And if it starts with touching, who knows where it will go.

And then there is one more thing. Most men are stronger then most woman. When a man gets touched by a woman who he can clearly push off then it's not a threat. But when a woman gets touched by a man twice as strong as her, what can she do? She can try to push him away, but that's probably not going to have any effect. The only thing that does have real effect here is making a scene.

@Protossx I agree that sometimes girls overreact. But that's to get attention. But it's fairly easy for others to see when a girl is serieus or when she is just trying to get attention and when some one does this to you the easiest thing to do is just ignore her and walk away.

I think that's a gross mis-generalization of genders. I like to consider myself a very romantic person. I like to do things with flair and make the little nuances that make things just that much more special. One of the things I hate most on television and movies is when there is a love interest that never fully pans out before someone gets killed off or some such. Not because I wanted them to hook-up, but because I wanted them to be happy. Plus I don't really by that people are as different as they make themselves out to be, they just try to make things more complicated than they need to be.
