Yup; true story: s guy was charged with assault, because he, as a form of  flirting, whistled at a girl & she called the cops.

The facts were laod out: it was the first & only time hje had one so (if she'd  requested he stop, yet he continued, she might feel threatened then, by his  unwilingness rto respect her clearly communicated boundaries) & I have no beef  with that, should a court find it to be such.

People(Loony lefties, as opposed to normal ones) sya it's unfair to snap-judge  a concern for young people dressed a certain way, with tattoos & piercings.

I don't act on it, but I certainly do have a bit more concern for them than for the Mormons walking towards me in their shiny shirts & pants!

The guys who asre all about putting ntches on their bed post should be aware  that some women might just change their mind after the seduction has been  agreed to & begun, & have him charged with rape.

My advice is to get to know a lady first, so you can have a certain amount of  trust in her not to be a jackass game-player.

One comic's answer to women who complain about guys judging their skimpy/wanton clothing was to ask if it'd be reasonable to expect help from someone in a cop  uniform?  What if he was not a copy,. but jusdt wearing the uniform of one?

"Okay, I'll stipulate you're not necessarily a slut, but you are certainly  wearing the uniform of one!"  (the audience, men & women alike, roared!)

Same, but I remember enough. If U were to be vback in it'd be as a widow, & I'm given tyo understand things are easier for such than for the younguns coming  out of college, or still in.

Seriously, I signed up for a dating site a ways back & I entered my info & was  directed straight to the Seniors' Page! (for 40+); I was 39!
