    Have you ever been pinched on the butt by a lad you didn't know? I was in a pub sipping a pint the other night, and standing at the bar cause the place was packed with no seats left, and all of a sudden I felt this pinch! Ouch! I spun around spilling my drink ready to punch someone, and this lad jumped back acting like what he did was OK, holding his hands open and up saying "Whoa girl, it was just a friendly pinch!"

    So women, has it happened to you lately, and how did you react? How did you feel and what did you think about it?

    OK lads, you can join in if you dare, and tell us if you have ever pinched a girl you didn't know?

    Has happened to me and I've done it. Though it was more of a slap than a pinch.

    Exactly!! Seriously, Blue_Lagoon, why didn't you thank the guy for paying you attention without you even having to ask for it?

    I think my drink would make contact with his face and he'd be lucky to escape a quick visit of my knee to his nether regions.

    Not since i was 15..... but now that it's back in fashion :D


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,183 ✭✭✭Peared


    Wudda floored him.

    Maybe used sneakiness, cunning and a surprise element if he was big and strong.

    Sometimes violence is the answer.

    Also would make him maybe think twice next time he saw a nice arse.

    D1ckead.

    Am I the only girl who doesn't honestly see it as that big of a deal? It's happened to me a lot and I don't care one bit.

    Big whoop, he pinched your ass, mountains of molehills much?

    Life's too short.

    Yip I'm the same. While I hate strangers touching me (even trying to hug me pisses me off) I wouldn't make a big deal about it. A filthy look at best is all they'd get.


  • Registered Users Posts: 656 ✭✭✭chickenhawk


    I have never done it and I hate guys that do it. If you have to resort to that to get a girl to chat to ya then you are crap at pulling or ugly.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,441 ✭✭✭✭jesus_thats_gre


    Far more women do it to guys tbh...

    So what, men should be able to touch women wher they want, how they want and when they want?

    Where is the line?

    How about if they pinch your breast, is that ok?

    Would that be a mountain or a molehill?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,031 ✭✭✭petethebrick


    I agree. Its far more common the other way round, drunk girls thinkin they can go around slappin ass at will


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,235 ✭✭✭Dave147


    Note to self: Girl's DONT like when I pinch their ass.

    What about pointing at my crotch suggestively? Do chicks dig this? :)


  • Registered Users, Subscribers, Registered Users 2 Posts: 47,336 ✭✭✭✭Zaph


    I completely fail to understand 1) why guys would do this in the first place; and 2) why they would think that the woman is going to enjoy it. If you think a woman is attractive, talking to her is going to get you further than pinching her ass.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,440 ✭✭✭✭Piste


    Yeah i don't understand why guys do it either...maybe it's not to get stuck in, maybe they just like the feel of an ass =/


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Arts Moderators, Entertainment Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators Posts: 16,650 CMod ✭✭✭✭faceman


    Ive done it twice in my life but only because i thought the person i did it to was someone else!! fortunately i survived both events!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 43,045 ✭✭✭✭Nevyn


    Doesn't matter what gender the pincher is it's not acceptable behaviour.


  • Users Awaiting Email Confirmation Posts: 827 ✭✭✭Phlann


    I've never done it to a girl I didn't know but, like others here, I've had it done to me by girls (and one guy) on several occasions.

    I took it in the playful spirit in which it was obviously intended, though.

    Maybe I'd have felt differently if they'd walked up and grabbed my crotch but a pinch on the ass is so harmless and silly it's not worth getting annoyed over.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,081 ✭✭✭hunter164


    Never said it was a point was made though that drunk women (not all) are notorious for it. I am not saying men don't do it.

    Used to do it as a teen :o but that was at teh disco's, people were more likely to grab some ass and start sucking face than to introduce themselves.
    Nowadays I wouldn't do it-have been grabbed a few times before but not lately (since I became a recluse it doesn't happen as often funnily enough)


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 304 ✭✭smares


    Why do men do it? do they honestly think your going to be thinking nice one he pinched my ass!! No im afraid not.
    I think it's best ignored becuase you turn to say something to them and they have your attention which is what they were after in the first place


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 16,165 ✭✭✭✭brianthebard


    Cause they haven't grown out of that teen disco phase.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 304 ✭✭smares


    Thats true bacause it usually is younger guys that do it


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,031 ✭✭✭petethebrick


    I do remember a funny night out in my younger days. Out at a nightclub in town my mate slapped a girls ass while walkingup some stairs. Turned out she was the manager on duty and both of us were thrown out of the place. :o


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,184 ✭✭✭neuro-praxis


    Me and my friends (male and female) have a habit of slapping each other on the ass.

    If a stranger slapped me on the ass I'd consider slapping them in the face.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,766 ✭✭✭Reku


    Never done it and thankfully never had it done to me. Not exactly a good ice breaker IMO. I don't even like it when girls I don't know/barely know rub their legs against mine, I'll ignore it in the hope that it's completely unintentional but I'd rather they didn't do it.
    You need to know someone to know what they consider their personal space and what levels of physical familiarity they'll tolerate from you, you can't really just go for it and hope.

    FTFY. :)

    It has happenend to me on a few ocassions, usually by one of the lads in my group of friends. They know they are gona get a bit of a thump for it but it's a bit of a joke now.

    However some random guy did it to me in a bar once and he left with my handprint across his cheek

    It depends who it is at the end of the day, someone you know or a stranger

    Guy did it to me in a club when my boyfriend was right beside me. I actually thought it was my boyfriend who did it so I didn't react. Was only when I saw the bf about to go for your man I realised what had happened.

    I wouldn't see it as 'sexual assault', although it may techincally be, but it's very cheeky and certainly and wouldn't get me interested at all.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,395 ✭✭✭Drift


    I'm a guy and I've never pinched or groped a girl I didn't know. In fact I'd even be very wary about doing it to friends of mine, I'm trying to recall a time I did to a "non-girlfriend" and I can't think of one.

    However, I have had my ass groped a number of times by random women and one chancer of a young one even had herself a fondle of my cock as she walked by in a club :confused:. Fondling my bits was a bit much but I must admit that I'm not really to bothered about my ass being pinched or slapped - I know it shouldn't be but it's a bit of an ego boost! (Guess I'm shallow :o )


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 118 ✭✭bennyblanco


    I've had mine grabbed/shlapped a few times,doesnt really bother me unless it's by a minger.
    I've slapped a few girls on the ass,a few times it was mistaken identity(fast talking ensued to avoid getting digs),the very odd time I might do it girls in college just to be cheeky:pac:

    Agreed.

    But.
    It's not a sexual assault. It's not a big deal. People need to put some perspective on things or pretty soon you'll be claiming sexual harassment because I looked at your breasts.

    I imagine you'd hate to be stuck in a lift with eight Italians :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,579 ✭✭✭Webmonkey


    I get pinched by girls the odd time, I don't mind :)
    Wouldn't do it to a girl though, girls today are dangerous.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 26,584 ✭✭✭✭Creamy Goodness


    just be lucky it's only a pinch and not a what what.

    Sweet Jebus, that's the worst thing I have ever been subjected to on the internet. :mad:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 662 ✭✭✭LovelyTom


    I've had it done to me a good few times.I don't really mind it to be honest but I think it's different for a guy to do it to a girl. I'm not sure why but for either sex it's extremely disrespectful and I would never do it and I'd be extremely disappointed if anyone I knew did it.


  • Posts: 0 ✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    Pretty much every time I go out..

    But, I really don't see it as a big deal.

    Me thinks you lot are over reacting a tad.

    Zaph can we have Cremo banned for aural (and possibly visual) rape?


  • Hosted Moderators Posts: 16,186 ✭✭✭✭Maple


    Don't make a big deal out of it but if I spot the perpetrator I smile sweetly at him and then stand on his toes. Tosspots.

    The talking chocolate starfish at the start of that youtube clip was a bit of a giveaway though! To anyone who watched it all - my sympathies.

    Excellent idea maple, may I steal that one?

    Stillettos would be handy in that situation :D

    hope you're not serious about the ban.

    i'm trying to make a little light humour out of this.

    if i was a girl, i would dislike the pinches, any guy that does it is an asshole in my books, but to say it's sexual assault is a bit OTT tbh cause if something like this was assault then there'd be an endless queue of women at the sperm bank because all the guys would be in jail.

    Reckon? I don't know any guys who would touch or pinch a girl that they dont know on the arse or anywhere else.

    And I know some excitable fellas. And some pervs. And some reprobates. But hey, that's another thread.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 29,509 ✭✭✭✭randylonghorn


    I'd never dream of pinching a woman I didn't know on the ass, but I have to admit I've occasionally pinched someone I knew and ducked, just to watch them glare round at a crowd of perfectly innocent strangers ... even if I did get thumped for it when they copped on! :pac:
    Thaedydal wrote: »

    Sitting back and treating it as a purely philosophical question, I'd have to agree, but in practice most lads wouldn't take having their ass pinched by a woman particularly seriously, and I certainly don't.

    Nor would I tend to be bothered if a male friend of mine was the one pinched, whereas if a stranger did it to a woman I knew I would be seriously annoyed.

    Oh, and as some of the guys said, I've experienced full-on frontal groping (grabbing more like!) a couple of times from drunk women. Can't say I was overly impressed with that, but in all honesty it hasn't left any scars on my psyche either.

    Tbh, I felt like turning round to them and saying "Well, if that's how you treat them, I'm not surprised you haven't one at home to play with!"

    Weirdest I ever experienced was standing in the jacks in a pub, cheerfully recycling the alcohol, and this one wanders in, stands between me and the guy on my left, and proceeds to loudly compare notes!! :eek:

    While she was actually quite complimentary, that was definitely a "let's get the fvck outta here!" moment!

    It was only when I got back to the gang I was with that I was informed by one of them who vaguely knew her that yer man was her ex ... which I suppose made some sense of it, but she could have left me out of her menage-a-trois, thanks!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,930 ✭✭✭✭challengemaster


    Should have kicked him (Only cos I know your wrists would fold if you tried to punch him, B!ue ! :p) Swift kick in the nards and then the rest of your already-spilled pint over his head.:D Probably wouldnt do it again. I'd get out of there quick smart though after. Never know what he could try as payback
