OMG -- that is just tragic, Curio, that said, I think you did the right thing in just "getting that shit over" and keeping yourself safe -- It is a pity you have to endure such things -- but I think you have showed wisdom and fortitude, indeed - honor! It's such a difficult subject, I'm not so sure "asking" is perfect, hardly natural -- but there is no alternative - men should essentially "look after" women more respectfully and they might not need to force themselves upon others! That said, I'm sure it is only a minority -- but then again, I don't have to put up with them!
