Yes, I guess, and usually staff are not in the position to intervene. A manager maybe could.

Anyway, I guess this sometimes happens, annoying drunks enjoying themselves while annoying / bothering others.

Reminds me I should check my own behavior next time I'm pissed.....

The other day I was in a bar and an aussie woman breezed over, interrupted us with inane chit chat and proceeded to smoke a pipe full of herbs.

I thought, wow, some bogans are pretty cool!

LOL! You failed to mention the impressive cleavage, so it couldn't have been me!

I had a comment typed out and it disappeared, so trying again.

A woman can't tell a man to stop abusing another woman - she will be verbally attacked and called a feminazi, or any number of other perceived insults.

Only a man can tell another man to pull his head in.

One time, a ''friend'' arrived at Oscar's very drunk and wanted to dance with me. I gracefully declined his offer to throw me around the dancefloor but he did not want to take no for an answer. I didn't want to ruin my night so I just moved my handbag from the table where he had decided to join me and went to sit with a couple of men friends. He came over to their table to tell me very close to my face to fuck off. At that point I made a dash for the balcony while the guys escorted him back to his table.

It's very different when there is a man willing to step in and intervene. When there is not, you can feel very bloody vulnerable and exposed.

This stuff happens to woman all the time - I am just more willing to talk about it than most, I guess.

You must have been in Kampot

Grim, spaceinvaders and timebandits can all get fucked, unfortunately.. some people are that backwards they don't speak polite and will only understand fucks offs.

Go learn some MMA lest you have to splatter someone's jaw off the bar in the future.

trust me, it happens to blokes as well, maybe for different reasons, often a lot more pathetic, but it happens

Your threads like this and the other about the condom puller make me think. I've heard from several women about this and have discussed at length with friends, how they're "poked" on the dancefloor with a penis, called names for simply rejecting (often for pure safety) and such.

Here's my itch. If it's most of us guys it means it's probably at least some of my friends. How do I identify them, without bringing them to Oscar's to be drunk? If I need to get them drunk for vetting its quite hard and time consuming.

Not to say I mind keeping my eye out but what are the warning signals women look for or react to? What on earth can I possibly do? If someone says something I'll act, so far I haven't seen anything. At least I don't think so. I don't know, you know? When to do something, and what.
