I think it happens to all of us in one way or another, and words and glances and hand-motions can be as humiliating and cowing as actual unwanted physical contact. I think it's very hard for any woman to be in a confrontational position with a man and not have those kinds of thoughts in the back of her head.
But we also do have to dismiss it as "well, that happens," some of the time, or we would never get through the day.
