They do it in clubs a lot but I genuinely think being drunk and trying to get past not all of them mean it in a pervert way, but I can definitely see how it annoys and makes some uncomfortable
genuinely never had this happened or seen it happen, iv'e had people touch my shoulders when passing and trying not to bump into me but never my waist. That just seems so unnecessary.
A light touch on the back to let me know they're squeezing behind me, usually. Typically happens at parties or crowded places. However I actually kinda really like this (not even gonna go with a "doesn't bother me") as long as it's someone around my general age and not some sleazy old guy, and as long as it's actually crowded and not like they went out of their way to brush against me. I'm honestly not always the most aware of my surroundings and sometimes accidentally step backwards into people if I haven't realized they're passing by, so It's nice to get the little "heads up coming through".
Nope, I've never done it and if I have it was an accident, although I don't remember ever doing it. Whenever I touch people physically it's on the shoulder, arm, and back. I do it with both women and men. If I only did it towards women that would be creepy. Lmao
I seriously doubt that's a normal thing. I've certainly bumped into people, and sometimes just brushed past without making a big apology, and I suppose people of a more drunk and/or gropey sort might, but that's kind of like saying "unnormalize barbecuing unicorns".
With some close friends, married ladies, when we share a close connection, I often touch, hold, hug, and their husbands and partners are not concerned!! Just showing my love, and affection, for her as a DEAR friend, maybe like a little sister!!! With close friends, knowing them for years, there is some assumed acceptance and acceptable 'intimacy' of touch, or cheek kissing, and just talking about things!! Someone I just met, OF COURSE NOT!!! There is no relationship, yet, no trust, yet.
If i am squeezing past a women with potential to bump each other and she has her back turned i will touch her just so she knows i am c oming past so doesn't step back or get bumped off balance usually they look around straight away and see what is happening and never had a issue. i take it and mean it in a polite way. l ikke omg someone touched me i better get tested grow up you over sensitive oxygen theives and sorry no you cannot now join the me to movement
"Oxygen thieves" Lmao you really coming to scalp people today huh? You didn't specify where you would touch her, if on the waist why not on the shoulders instead? And if on the shoulder that's fine, there's nothing wrong with that.
I’ve gotten that a couple times especially in the mall in a tight space. The man goes excuse me and placed his hands around my hips fast. Not like really holding it, but you know, it was a touch.
I was working as a busser one time, and I had a coworker, (who’s a year older than me) touch my waist to move me out of the way. And said “behind”. It just took me a second to comprehend what just happened. I kid you not it was not busy, the place was not full, AND there was a big enough space for 3 people to pass by. I know he means no harm because we get along and talk. But i was taken aback from it because I’ve never had anyone do that to me before.
I think the tweeters vision is skewed. I've never really come into contact with men that think that touching another person in passing is acceptable. Maybe a tap on the shoulder or something if you're trying to be excused but that's about it.
