Should women be able to collect damages if a guy grabs their rear-end without consent just like Taylor Swift did in 2013?

Essentially, Swift said that Mueller groped her ass, and he said he didn’t.

In 2013, Taylor Swift was in the midst of her Red Tour. Before a concert in Denver on June 2 of that year, she hosted a meet-and-greet for fans. Mueller, then a DJ for the radio station KYGO, attended as well, and posed for a picture with Swift and his girlfriend, Shannon Melcher. According to Swift, while they were taking the picture, Mueller reached under her skirt and grabbed her rear.

Swift had her security team eject Mueller from the venue and issue him a lifetime ban against ever attending another one of her shows. She also notified Mueller’s employer, KYGO, and two days later they fired him, citing the morality clause in his contract.

Yes. If they can. Obviously Taylor has the means to do it

none allowed to touch anyone without consent

Of course dudes shouldn't just grab girls without permission man, that's messed up. Good for Taylor for standing up for herself and getting that creep fired. No means no, it's basic respect.

I know some guys like to act all big and tough, but keeping your hands to yourself ain't hard. Why risk making a girl feel scared or uncomfortable over some dumb grab? No ass is worth that drama.

If some dude did that to my sister, I'd wanna deck him too. Girls deserve to feel safe, not worried about creeps always feeling them up. Laying down the law with a lawsuit sends a message - you gotta get consent first before any touching.

Money's not gonna undo what that guy did, but it shows other dudes you can't just do whatever and get away with it. Props to Taylor for collecting - hopefully it stops other weirdos from pulling that kinda bullshit in future. Just leave the girls alone if they ain't into it, simple as that.

I'd be filthy rich by now if that were actually a thing.

Who are they, I'll teach them a lesson for touching you

[mandyfire98]

It's a long long list. Many I don't even know who they were. Random guys at the club or bars or parties. Pretty common for college girls to get groped randomly just going to the bar to get a drink or on the dance floor at a club.

[Wiredone]

I didn't know that was a thing. I'd be afraid of getting arrested

[mandyfire98]

You will be surprised how many guys don't think it's wrong or even that it's not normal

[Wiredone]

With what I've seen, I'm not surprised. Guys don't have respect like we did when I grew up

Lol, I would be as rish as Jeff Bezos if I collected damages for every woman who has grabbed my butt during parties or at clubs.

Was their evidence and witnesses?
