Hi! I just want to ask you guys if you ever been groped by an unknown person in the public? My friend was actually groped one time when she riding a public vehicle and that made her so terrified to ride once again in a public vehicle. But i still always tell her to get ready and be warned all the time with people like them. i have a picture of what seemed to have happened with my friend. This is not the actual picture of my friend. i just found this out on Facebook.

Sadly my answer is yes. I was walking down the street wearing a tight skinny jeans and this guy who looks kinda crazy to me grabbed my a**. I was horrified. Lesson learned: Do not wear tight clothing in public specially when you are alone.

I also had a classmate in college who experienced this. It happened during rush hour and most people are really rushing to ride on jeeps to get home. When she climbed up the jeep, that's when someone squeezed her a**. She really can't say who. Mind you, she wasn't even wearing skin fitting clothes because she was wearing our school uniform at that time...

I have never been groped in public, for i dun think nobody will wanna grope me.. lol =D BUt it's kinda dangerous and scary for a gal to be groped in public.. IT's like she's being exposed to danger all around her, when public should be safe with some many ple around!! I guess she has got to be more careful and be keeping a lookout on suspicious ple standing around her, especially those really close..

Yeah. When I was working as a waitress this drunk old man grabbed me when I was trying to bring drinks to a table. Some nice gentlemen came to my rescue though.

It happened to as well. I was riding a bus and this middle age guy (i was just in my early 20's that time) sat beside me. I didn't mind him at first and i was trying to sleep since it's a thirty minute ride. I was awaken when i felt hands groping my private parts and it turned out that it's the guy sitting beside me trying to get his hands inside my pants. I was caught by surprise and i don't know how to react, my instinct was telling me to hit him in the face but the guy is bigger than me so fight is not an option. What i did was get off the bus instead and transferred to another bus.

it happened to me before. the scene actually look like the one in the photo but in my case, the guy used his elbow. i was beside the door of the jeep. when i felt it i held the bar of the door so my elbow covered my chest.

I never tried being groped or something. I was being taught by my friends to protect myself and be aware of people that could possibly do something bad to me specially when there were a lot of people in public or if you need to go in a place that might likely have a stampede because of many people going in

This has happened to me on a New York City Train. We are all standing in a crowd at times touching each other. I remember some guy pinching my behind. I turned around and he looked away knowing he got caught. I managed to move away from him. After that I would try to get a seat or stand with my behind at the door facing the inside of the train.

I haven't experenced that kind of groping yet, but something similar happened to me a few years ago. I was riding a bus and a man sat between me and another woman. A few moments later I felt like there was something crawling on my side, until I found out that this man beside me was crawling his fingers on me. He was pretending that he was asleep, but his fingers were very active. It was really scary. That's one of the downsides of riding an ordinary bus, I mean, the one without air-conditioner.
