Del ([info]big_bad_wolf) wrote in [info]otf_wank,
Oh it gets better in the comments to the Kick In The Balls post!

And to which I say, if a stranger comes up to you on the train or wherever (not a controlled area like a convention) and grabs your boob (instead of you being part of a group that allows your boob to be touched or someone making an honest mistake and accidentally lumping you in with that group and having to be schooled on the protocol) - I say kick him in the nuts. That is a very appropriate response to that.

However, the result of the OSBP was, in some cases, to make the environment uncomfortable for the women and overly sexually charged, which I completely understand, so the response would be to find a situation that reverses that for men: I have suggested the satiric event "The Open Source Bend Over Boyfriend Project" which would, IMHO, make the point to men much better than threatening physical violence.

There is a huge difference between a possible precursor to rape, which is the scenario you are playing out here in your comments, and a boob touch that is supposed to be the end-all of the OSBP. That many people, not just women, fail to see this doesn't really surprise me. We live in the time of the out-of-control or inappropriate response.
