Oh, yes! 'No' not 'sorry' is the hardest word. Is that exclusively female brainwashing? Do men ever feel the same?
My reaction to the entire episode (after the nausea receded and the blood was simmering rather than boiling) was to think - a red button? Don't make me laugh! Any male who even considered asking for a grope (asking, forsooth! Mind, I suppose that's an improvement on just doing it anyway.) shouldn't imagine that offering to be the gropee in his turn makes it ok. A knee to his groin might, just might be a more equitable exchange.

Sorry. Blood simmering again.
