My father taught me to be pleasant and welcoming, he also encouraged me to learn ways of non-verbally communicating. When I sit in a pub posting this comment there is a good chance that I will be interrupted, if I stick my nose in a book the likelihood of interruption is reduced to almost zero.

Just have sex with them without asking so they can get on with what they were doing, for example, queefing out a Guardian article.<br /><br />Just not with Lindy West though, unless you're an undergrad Rugby player on a hog slamming night.

It's that an unattractive, not rich, not famous, too old man does so (wrong colour, class, not enough or too many tatts, ….). (and that's ignoring the whole 'dress shorter than a belt, cleavage on display, get really annoyed if men don't notice' times – maybe if you had a hat with a light on, red maybe' to let us know who we are 'allowed' to speak to, and when).<br /><br />Me? As a not entirely unattractive male (well I am if the light is dim, you squint a bit and being short-sighted helps I’m told) I'm getting really tired of being approached by ladies 'of a certain age'. That and, I think, I've been sexually assaulted (unwanted suggestive remarks, touching and the like) at least a hundred times this week alone. At work it's almost unbearable. I daren't bend over most days in case I get pinched (admittedly at work in a female dominated profession and I tend to deal with almost exclusively with confused, aggressive and occasionally violent, inebriated and occasionally incontinent, older women … and some of the patients aren't too nice either).Ablehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18109723804885979128noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-627081175329856970.post-26483936394797708972014-11-01T11:07:40.392+00:002014-11-01T11:07:40.392+00:00A Guardianista in Starbucks?

That coffee must taste bitter, what with all the tax avoidance by feeelthy capitalists, so against all the rag's principles.<br />Oh, but wait, of course, the guardian's a tax avoider too, so all's well.Ed Pnoreply@blogger.com
