Dear women* of the world:
If an action would be inappropriate if it was a male performing it on a female, this means it is also inappropriate if it is a female performing it on a female.
Or in less subtle terms, get your fucking hands away from my goddamn tits, especially if I hardly know you. Your random faux-groping of my chest? Is neither cute nor funny, it's uncomfortable, and now that I've actually clicked that it's sexual harassment, I will be reacting supremely unfavorably next time it occurs.
No love

*Why is this post to the women of the world and not to the men? Because thus far, I have never had a male acquaintance grab, or pretend to grab, my breasts. I'd love to keep it that way.
ETA: This is not to say that I am always against groping all the time. But I'd like it to have a reason, and I'd be overjoyed if you would ask for permission first. You know, like a decent human being and not a slimeball.

I think it was more of the "ha-ha this is funny because you know I'm not serious" attitude that bothered me, particularly as it came out of nowhere and wasn't part of something we shared, but rather something something she did to me. No. Actually the last is exactly the crux.

The distinction betwen something two people share and something one person does to another is somewhat chilling, but I understand, emphaticaly, and I'm sorry it happened.
