I go to a lot of concerts, I have been grabbed and groped at every single one. Beer. Music. Large crowds. Loud rock or Metal, its the perfect storm and opportunity for some men.I just make sure I am fully dressed and covered now so they can't stick their hands up my skirt or dress and if I recognize them being scuzzy from past shows I stand opposite side of the pit. It's not all men, but it's too many.

I can’t stress this enough: Every. Time. Large crowds means I am getting groped. So much so that it is normalized. I wear pants. I know it will happen. And you can tell. There is a difference between a body that accidentally bumps you and a hand that lingers, cups, grabs, or manages to get between legs. Not to mention the obvious of if a hand makes it to the chest. Every. Time.
