Student

There is a dance club at our school where a lot of the students like to go on Saturday nights, very normal, very college. Inside it’s just a lot of sweaty people dancing too close together with probably too much alcohol in the mix. What makes me uncomfortable is that heterosexual couples can dance together and kiss on the dance floor and on one looks twice. But when I do the same with my girlfriend we have crowd a guys staring and catcalling. Multiple guys grabbed my butt and tried to dance with us without our permission. But I’m even more upset with myself because my first reaction was to think “well of course, this is the natural male response to two girls being together.” NO, the ‘natural response’ is not supposed to make me feel insecure and exposed. I don’t want to feel responsible for a guy’s rude behavior.
