Le gentil monsieur assis la bas nous montre tous son petit zizi!!”(or ” sa petite bite”, if you prefer to be obscene). It is also important to point at the man in question. They need to be humiliated.
When some creep started touching me up on the metro a while back I used the same tactic- I grabbed the wandering hand, held it high in the air and asked who it belonged to as I had just found it on my arse. I had had enough of pretending not to notice and the horrified offender got off at the next stop. Ha!:twisted:

In Frankfurt Germany I just get the loud, talking to themselves, homeless reeking drunks. Fun. (btw, I’ve been known to go a couple of stops past my station too because I was reading – heh).

being a guy these things don’t happen to me. You sounded very calm about it.
Living in the sleepy south of France near Toulouse in a village where everyone knows everyone these things don’t seem to happen.
In fact, the big event in our village was 3 years ago now, when somebody set fire to a plastic waste bin. We had a photo in the village newspaper of a melted bin !
Keep smilin’ and don’t forget the scissors in the bag in case he re-appears.
Cheers!

At least you were able to keep cool!

A guy also jacked off in a laundromat in front of my sister and I. We very quietly walked away.
I guess it’s a big city thing. . .In small towns they are probably too afraid of being recognized and reported!

Sorry this happened. The bastard.

Wishing you safer metro trips!

How long have you been using the Metro? It used to be a regular occurrence on the London Underground for me. Making comments such as:”Put it away,dear, before it dies off completely” used to make me feel better. Of course, if you have a large pair of dressmaker’s scissors in your bag, simply produce them silently. The reaction *that* provokes is highly gratifying……
