This can work sometimes, if you are in public and an American in a different culture. Sometimes fighting back is a good option. This is a complicated calculus though, speaking as someone who in my youth achieved a brown belt in karate.My wife would disagree with you. However, in all fairness, it depends on the degree of "abuse". My wife got her butt pinched when she was in Italy. She slapped the guy.
.People are learning what we've known for thousands of years: Humans are sexual. Heing and sheing, at ANY level, are suddenly taboo to some people.
BTW, It reminds me of a movie called Cherry 3000. It's the future and a guy goes into a single bar and there are not couples at tables, but groups of three:The woman, the man, and the attorney writing up the "hook up" contract. As they negotiate, the guy says, "hands on the boobs?" And the girl says, OK, but hands only above the waist. And the attorney dutifully types that into the contract.
It is where we seem to be going. Gotta admit, it does sound awfully romantic. Or not.
Different cultures have different standards. Usually conservative American evangelical Christians want to avoid being like Europe. Even so, France is getting less tolerant of sexual bullying as well.
Seriously, you can make fun of it, but
