[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Since rape or rape culture or sending unsolicited dick pics was not the topic being discussed, one or two women here are being liars. Being spoken to in a coffee shop is not assault; don't be stupid.[/quote] I have definitely dealt with harassment from male coffee shop patrons who think that if I’m sitting alone in a public place, I must want or at least welcome their attentions. This includes continuing to keep talking to me despite my monosyllabic or nonverbal responses, repeatedly offering to buy me coffee or even actually buying it, though I said no, sitting down at my table without asking when there are empty seats, and giving me unneeded info about my laptop, the novel I’m reading, or :roll: my appearance. Wedding ring not a deterrent. These things make women feel unsafe. More than once, I’ve asked a manager to let me slip out the back or called DH to pick me up. [/quote]
