[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was always in the pit from about 15yo on, and groping (and pushing, kicking, etc.) was unavoidable. It just wasn't a big deal.

I'd be interested in whether the scarred-for-life contingent even did those things as teenagers.[/quote]

When you say "groping," what do you mean? I think the concerns on this thread are that older smarmy guys will see an easy opportunity to take advantage of the young girls and touch them inappropriately and purposefully. Somebody could reach out and grab a breast or butt. You're saying that happened to you often? And that it wasn't a big deal? [/quote]

2nd pp here, and I wanted to add that yes I went to many concerts from about age 14; pushing and shoving were the norm in General Admission seating (standing), but groping wasn't nearly as common as you're making it out to be. If it had happened to me, it would have been a big deal to me. Something like that happened to me when I was about 21, at a bar. I still remember it, and it still makes me cringe to think of it. And I was an adult. [/quote]
