Wow, that's a really good idea. It's good that they are accepting that it is wrong.

Well yeah obviously you'd need to know his name - or give a description to the Police.

I used to be a Probation Officer and used to work with sex offenders.

For all you know, he does it all the time - and it'll just eventually lead to worse offences.

You can trivialise it or you can treat it seriously.

Totally up to the individual who's been offended against.

But it IS a criminal offence...

I didn't realise you could just give a description. May be worth considering December ...

Well a description might not be enough, but they might have had previous complaints about him ....

You could talk to the police and maybe they could talk to the bus company - most buses have CCTV and you'd know which bus you were on and at what time, it's worth a go.

I've never had anything quite like that happen to me but there are definitely some... interesting people on my bus of an evening xx

I want to but I'm worried they won't believe me. I don't know why they wouldn't, but I still feel like that.

I got attacked last year outside a club. The club called the police but nothing came of it. I guess I think that might happen again.

Apparently that feeling stops a lot of women from reporting things that they should do. I think that even if nothing comes of it, just by reporting it you've done your part.

Be brave and report it. For each person that does not report an invasion of their own privacy more of these sick people will think its acceptable to continue carrying out such acts.

Please... be brave.

Oh you poor thing. I hate that some people seem to think it's ok to do stuff like this. Hope you're beginning to feel a bit more secure.
Next time if you can tell the driver that something was happening, and even if you've pressed the bell just move seats and let the w****r be left having to get off. If the driver say's anything then tell him what happened.
Most people know this is not acceptable behaviour.

You poor thing - I hope Rich and chocolate are making you feel better.

If you can, you should try and tell the police and possibly, the bus company. I know it takes time and that you're worried they wont believe you, but you might not be the first. Your word will therefore back up others and might stop it or worse happening. The possibility of seeming a little foolish isn't half as bad as not saying something that might protect yourself and others.

Big hug x
