Rape comes in various degrees. this is one of the degrees. Keep this in mind. You can look, but you cannot touch.

look at him n go what in the hell are you doin you fuckin jerk dont touch me again or i will be forced to kick your ass

Not likely to happen, as I never wear silk tops and I never go to a bar. However, in the unlikely event that those planets aligned, I'd probably reflexively smack the fire out of him before I could even think.

I would not have to respond at all. If a man touched me in front of my husband, my man would have a very serious talk with him about how he should never lay his fingers on another man's wife.

I would walk up to him... run my hand down his shirt to feel it.... and find his nipple and twist it very hard.

how did it make you feel? your husband should have stopped him way before he got close enough to touch you. was alcohol a factor?

i would look to my husband to take care of this in the way he felt best about. +5

uhmm i wud hope my husband wud react?

As soon as the moron tried to stand between me and my lady, he would be on the floor with a face full of shoe for his efforts.

Well, I would walk up to him and say things the sensitive eyes of people on AB shouldn't read:) ( no profanities, I am just a master in sarcasm). Things that would make him leave the bar and think hard before ever doing that again to anyone. And I would ask my hubby to stand back, it's my pleasure to handle it.

I asked my wife this question and she said that she "...would gut him like the pig he is and watch him bleed out."

By the answers so far I think I handled it alright. It happened so fast and I was scared and stunned all a at the same time, Hubby was instantly pissed and went to go after him. I held him back and said wait. He was sitting across the bar, I shouted "WTF did you just do?" Do you know me!? What just gave you the right to do that!??" I again asked if he knew me, he kinda had a deer caught in the head light look on his face and he said "uh no." I said "let me tell you who I am. My name is **** and I put someone in prison for 6 years two years ago for raping me. I was getting over it until you just scared the crap out of me and brought back all the memories and fear in just one flash. You dirty rotten MF. You have no idea who I am and thankfully for you I was able to keep my wits a bit and not cut your throat out a gut reaction! The bartender came over and told me to calm down and said I was "over reacting" I got even more pisssed. I didn't think I was, but then again I wasn't sure. I just knew how I felt what it did to me. The guy apologized, and then tacked on "NOW DROP IT!" I said why?? Did I embarass you? You are the embarrasment!" He just sat there shaking his head. Hubby very calmy said to him if he ever tried to do anything like that ever again he would gut him and some of our friends were by us and one spoke up and said "I'll help him!" with that the guy got up and left. I have been struggling all day with this. It really shook me up, The bartender really upset me. He basicly made me seem like a raging idiot and I felt so belittled, on top of it all. Since there is a history I know I may over react to things. Thank you all for your great answers. It has helped me so very much!

At this point in my life, he would never have gotten his hand on me or my silk top. Three years of American Kempo Karate, and two more of Kick boxing and Street fighting....Plus, having been molested when I was much younger several times... If my partner didn't react first...I would likely have either deflected his hand, or popped him in the neck myself...Already did this to one twit... I just threw a straight punch into his windpipe...he staggered back, moderately aware that I DID pull my punch, even though he was coughing and gaging away most uncomfortably for several moments, while his girlfriend stood there laughing at him. No one has a right to put their hands on anyone, without express invitation clearly stated.
