i realize that i'm slipping into random train of thought mode, but i really just need to get something off my chest. the brits. the ass grabbing. it needs to stop. i punched some guy last night because i swore to myself that if it happened again, shit was going down. i didn't want it to have to come to that, but if i'm not going to stand up for myself, who else will? apparently chivalry has died, and these fine young gentlemen are the ones perpetuating these violations in the first place. don't worry - i didn't deck him that hard; he didn't even do anything about it; it was well-deserved and this sad, lonely fucker knew it.
but i can't end without trying to rationalize why the other ladies in the house seem to let this stuff fly. is it a culture thing? surely, the ass grab could signify a quick "hello", or perhaps a "hey, you're rather fetching. let's talk a little more if you decide to make the rounds again - i'll grab your ass next time you walk by so you know it's me." (indeed, the latter situation is NOT fool proof.) i could be getting this all wrong: does the ass grab really just stand in place of a friendly high-five?
perhaps it's a drunk thing. attending a club even half sober is like removing the soft, sweet veil of ignorance. though it would seem counterintuitive, everything is just a little bit scarier. maybe i would have been okay with the multiple run-ins had i been royally shitfaced. though, i maintain that this truly isn't the case, as this is a problem i've run into before, drunk or not, and i never come out pleasantly surprised after a good feel-up - even if i was, i would probably just feign anger, looking for an excuse to fight.
finally, maybe it's a wardrobe thing. having worn nylons and a fun little dress last night, there really were very few layers of fabric that lay between me and those dirty hands, so perhaps it's just that this sudden seizing of my ass was intensified by the lack of polyester. in all honesty, i'll give the brits some credit in admiting that they really don't grab all that aggresively - it's more just a casual, inconspicuous, "just-for-the-hell-of-it" clutch. but then i'll take that credit right back, because if you are going to grab my ass, grow some balls, stop being a little pansy, and assert yourself, if you REALLY feel like it's your place to have your hand there. because otherwise, you're no better than the awkward, horny middle school boy or the old, lonely pervert creeping over in the corner.
ahhhh. why?
