Man, I take this train once in a while. Let me tell you something, if I ever seen a scum bag like this id fIN throw him down the stairs. I don’t know why nobody helped. Just because a man seems crazy don’t believe the man is actually crazy. Take a deep breath and do something to solve the situation. Follow the suspect quietly and report to police.

Being small is the entire point of bulimia.

I personally keep my claws to myself but see no harm in those that choose to rub knuckles against a tight ass or tuna sandwich during rush hour.

G-d bless all of us and our little Sunnyside.

Groping a woman on the subway is an act of violence. Men know that in all situations a woman’s body is off limits without explicit permission. Women’s bodies serve them, women use them to accomplish all the work she must do to keep body and soul together. A man’s response to that his just that, his response. he is in control of himself. If he chooses to violate the most basic social contract–the right to be safe in public–he destroys his victim’s sense of safety in the public sphere. Life-long repeated violations of a woman’s bodily integrity causes extreme psychological harm, whether there is a bruise, a cut, or a red mark. A person thinking constantly about personal safety can not effectively negotiate other situations in life.

You adopted perverted propaganda. Groping is natural, harmless, and a man’s God given privilege unless it’s against my wife or girlfriend. God bless and good luck out there.

A slip of a girl Yes “groping” is an act of violence right up there with blowing somebody’s head off, plunging a knife in someones chest or punching somebody’s teeth out. The incidence of groping varies around the world, and some countries have acquired a reputation for it. In some countries, it is common for a woman’s buttocks to be pinched or slapped in a crowded area. In many countries, unwelcome groping or touching of any part of another person’s body is illegal but still not an act of violence, but in almost all countries it is considered unacceptable behaviour. Italy used to have a reputation for men pinching women’s bottoms, and the term groping could perhaps be applied, but it was not a common term at that time (mid-20th century, for example). Japan has a reputation for females being groped on trains and buses to the extent that the authorities have implemented anti-groping campaigns, which has received considerable media attention and been the subject of serious study in recent years. The victim in this case handled the situation correctly, public shaming is an effective method. My great grandmother told me she would poke gropers with a hat pin back around WWII (many would consider this an act of violence and assault with a weapon). Do you really believe that this guy touching this woman’s buttocks has caused “extreme psychological harm”? You sound more warped then the jerk grabbing women on the subway…

Girl…Are you for real? Extreme psychological harm will a rise from an incident of groping. How weak fragile do you think women are? Thinking like yours was the root of the consensus 100 years ago that justified laws preventing women from owning property and to be treated as second class weak and inferior citizens.

Rocky wow everyone is right about you. Go back to my post it never said anything about groping people on the subway being ok. I said there was a difference between between getting robbed or slashed vs getting groped. Most would agree there is an extreme difference of the level of violence and degree of criminality. Dude learn to read.

-Rocky You’re wrong…again.. Interpersonal violence is defined as “the intentional use of physical force or power, threatened or actual, against another person or against a group or community that results in or has a high likelihood of resulting in injury, death, psychological harm, maldevelopment, or deprivation.”Mar 5, 2015

-David Did I just see this idiot ignore your entire post about “degree” of criminality and “level” of violence.? But act like he is responding to your post. Hahaha The guy is the very definition of brain dead blowhard. He claims he has a degree but it doesn’t seem to come through in his comments.

Meanwhile Commissioner Bratton wants us to know how “safe” we are and it is our fault if we become crime victims.

There is a big difference between getting robbed or slashed and somebody getting “goosed”. I didn’t realized a man could be so easily intimidated and that full of fear that he would consider a grope a life threatening event. The victim wasn’t as afraid of Rocky she even confronted the perp. Rocky wants to hide behind the police commissioner. Maybe Rocky should change his Sunnyside post handle to Cowardly Lion.
