Woman is awesome, teaches T creeper a lesson!

A strap-hanging MBTA heroine said she went into “She-Hulk” mode to single-handedly collar a man who exposed himself on a crowded B-Line trolley - dragging him off the train and holding him until cops arrived.The 24-year-old Allston woman, who did not want to be named, said the man boarded one stop after she did on her ride home from her marketing ( Read more... )

GOOD FOR HER. I would have done something similar. I think it was a great way to deal with this guy, and I hope he doesn't get a pathetic little fine/slap on the wrists OR find a way to sue the woman for assault or something (which wouldn't surprise me, alas).

And FUCK THOSE OTHER PEOPLE ON THE TRAIN. I get so frustrated with people who don't stand up for other people. It's rare enough that someone calls someone out on poor behavior in public. But then when nobody stands up in solidarity? RAGE.

eta: I love this line! “He kept saying sorry, but he was just sorry for himself,” she said.

FOR. REAL.

HA! I thought about typing that exact same thing.

Me too. Clearly everyone else did too. Jeez all he was doing was letting her know of his sexual desires! GAWD, what's wrong with that! Someone should send this bit of news to the idiot who wrote that stupid "creep shaming" article on Jezebel.

Seriously though this shit has to stop. I'm almost more disgusted with the people who just sat there and did nothing than the guy having a surprise wank. It's disgusting.

There was an article... against creep shaming?

bushy_brow April 29 2012, 03:19:36 UTC

Unfortunately, yes.

Yeah. Look a few posts back on this comm. It was some stupid baloney about how the word "creep" does HORRIFIC damage to a man's reputation and how women should stop using it to "slander men who simply just want to be open about their sexual desires." It was a bunch of BS.
