“Then he put his hands on my boobs and squeezed them really hard. After that he slapped my arse with one hand and put his other hand up my skirt.”
New submission from Faith
As I was walking home one night, a man who seemed drunk came up to me. He said to me “Hey sexy girl, where are you going?” I told him that I was going home. I tried to walk past him but he blocked my way. He said that I should spend the night with him, I replied “No thanks.” and again tried to walk past the man, but again he blocked me. Then he put his hands on my boobs and squeezed them really hard. After that he slapped my arse with one hand and put his other hand up my skirt. I was too shocked to say or do anything. He appeared to notice my expression of shock and slapped my arse one last time before walking off laughing. I ran for the rest of the way home. I took a cold shower and cried.
I’m 15 and nothing like this has happened to me before and I certainly hope it never happens again.

Dear Faith,
what he did was a crime. You can report it to the police. I encourage you to do that as it will give you the feeling, that other people also think it is not okay and they will support you, and you will feel a lot better.
The worst thing is, not to do anything about it.
I would like to say something else, but it is very, very likely, that you will be harassed again in other ways, because all women are. And not defending yourself or doing something afterwards will leave you with a bad feeling of being helpless. You really don’t want to feel that way.
And you are not helpless. Please help yourself.
Tell your parent, go to the police.
Hi Faith,
No matter how you feel, you need to understand that you have done nothing wrong and that your assailant has committed a serious criminal offence.
If you have not done so already, please report this incident to the police.
I find it curious that a number of women who have shared their awful experiences here seem to look to themselves for answers. This is bizarre. They and you are simply a victim of a crime, nothing more, nothing less.
Unfortunately, I also speak from the experience of having been aggressively harassed by other men.
The best thing to do is take action and share your story. Do not suffer in silence.
Seb.
