Hell, I spent puberty desperately hoping and praying to a nonexistent God that a girl would accidentally brush into me. That’s why I said generally. Lots of guys were groped by other kids, it just doesn’t seem prevalent. My mileage will totally vary from yours, just like with anything else. That’s one of the things…

Also, I’m a Chris, so we are now friends by the transitive property of internet.

Yes, yelling. That’s another thing to stress. If you are unable to defend yourself, make enough noise to bring someone who can. All it takes is one person willing to do the right thing. I told my sister to make a scene if she’s in trouble. In return, she tried to teach me to dance. It went poorly.

Greek rules.

Also, your avatar is both hilarious and terrifying.

That’s why I threw the in general out there. Is that true? WOW. I honestly had no idea. Like I said in one of my ten thousand comments on here, I’ve been really lucky, and depend on people to let me know what I don’t know. Thank you for reminding me.

Yeah, we aren’t universally renowned for taking the hint. Sometimes a swift nut shot is deserved.

That’s a bingo.

I’ve had guys squeeze my balls at the bottom of a pile in a high school football game. Balls are absolutely fair game.

I will always star someone calling my point brilliant.

That’s exactly right. Fight as hard as you can against someone who wants to hurt you. Give no quarter, not an inch. Use everything at your disposal, scratching eyes, kicking balls, throat punches, no Marquess of Queensberry rules there.

Agreed. Some men, especially in a pack, will keep picking at a weak spot until we get backed off. I know I’ve hurt my friends before, and learned my lesson from it. Having a little sister made me grow up to be a lot more protective of vulnerable women, but not everyone has that, or parents that give a great example of…

I get where he was coming from, at the heart. The issue is in the essential difference between how men and women interpret the world and the actions of people in it. Men don’t get harassed sexually or touched inappropriately in general. Most of us think we’d like it, but don’t realize that nobody likes to feel small.

Sounds to me like they knew she hated it, but she lauged it off to belong. Going back to my point: If you don’t want to get hit in the balls, don’t touch a woman in a way that she doesn’t like.

Listen, “if you don’t want to get punched in the balls, don’t touch women when they don’t want you to” is a good rule of thumb for life. As someone who has both acted like an asshole and been punched in the balls for it, I’ll give this a pass. It sure as hell taught me a lesson.

As a ball-haver, I’ll say this. Getting hit in the balls is awful. But if men are going to be bigger and stronger (generally, there are a lot of women that could kick my ass in a fair fight) then women absolutely should go after the balls when threatened. I taught my sister that, I taught my nieces that, and it’s the…

They could trade up to the top spot - it’s worked wonders for the Rams so far.

The score, as always, is 42.

Tammy Duckworth is a goddamned Valkyrie. She is going to pummel Trump for four years and then kick his ass for president in 2020. That was the happiest vote I’ve ever cast.
