[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When I was about 16 years old I was with my parents when some old guy (like 70 years) asked me to dance.  I think my parents vaguely knew him.  Anyway, I said no, but they made me dance with him, “c’mon, we are right here.  It’s ok!”  I think I even started crying.  I wish they had stood up for me [b]like you did[/b] for your daughter.[/quote]

By pushing a 70yo man to the ground for trying to get you to dance?  You wish that? [/quote]

YES! Repeat after me: being drunk does not give people the right to touch other people without consent.  Being old does not give people the right to touch other people without consent.

Someone being on their phone does not mean that they have to touch or dance with or sleep with someone when they don't want to.  Being a teen does not mean that someone has to touch or dance with or sleep with someone when they don't want to.  Wearing a short skirt of a tight sweater or short shorts or a skimpy dress does not mean that someone has to allow anyone else to touch them, dance with them or assault them.  If you don't get this, then you don't understand consent, and you are part of the problem.

If a random creepy 70 year old man paws an 11 year old, he deserves what he gets.  I'm an older man, and I can assure you that it would never occur to me to paw at a child and demand that she dance with me.[/quote]

I don't remember the OP saying the guy was a 70 yo man.  That was another poster.
