[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't understand why people are assuming the man was hitting on an 11 year old? I would have assumed the guy was an extrovert trying to encourage the girl to participate. However, he should have known better than to pull on her arms, and I absolutely would have told him that was unacceptable. But I would not have touched him or yelled at him unless I truly thought he was hitting on her. I don't get that impression from OP's description, but maybe I'm wrong about that.[/quote]

I don't think that the older guy was necessarily hitting on OP's DD.  However, I don't think it matters.  Once the man started grabbing the 11 year old to behave in the way he wanted, that was too far.  [/quote]

Exactly. A stranger tried to restrain her and convince her to dance for his pleasure. That’s ok for some parents I guess, but I didn’t put all my energy into raising my daughter only to teach her to make herself uncomfortable to please men she doesn’t know. If more men would act like the OP, maybe the rape culture we live in could be a thing of the past. [/quote]

[b]“Dance for his pleasure”...come on PP.[/b] This is why so many people feel like the Me Too movement is one big cry-wolf. You have zero idea, and most likely, there wasn’t anything sexual about this incident. Inappropriate, but not sexual. Please stop with the “dance for his pleasure” stuff like he was trying to force her into grinding out a lap dance. [/quote]

NP here. Honest question -- why was she not allowed to say "no" and have that respected? What other reason, other than this guy just decided he wanted it that way?[/quote]
