I thought Coachella was just about all these phony rich celebrities getting to dress up like hippies.

Glitter-boobs are popular at Coachella this year. That’s probably why. :)

I don’t even know what sexual assault or sexual harassment means anymore.

She was groped 22 times in ten hours, but it took a lot of effort on her part to find those best places to be groped, and to repeatedly go out of her way to surf back through those hotspots, while dressed like a streetwalker, and ringing a “come and get it” dinner bell...

She certainly was not hiding away in a nunnery.

In a piece published Wednesday, journalist Vera Papisova said she was groped 22 times over a 10-hour period while attending Coachella, saying that she was “repeatedly violated by strangers.” Papisova described being followed, grabbed, insulted, spoken to inappropriately and groped on multiple occasions.

...

Why didn’t she leave?

She was most likely loaded out of her mind with her t!ts hanging out for the crowd to see.
Seen it MANY times at outdoor festivals and have actually been permitted to grab a few way back when....good thing i was never caught on vid after they sobered up...

Based on a quick Internet search for Coachella, I’m not surprised by this article. In fact I feel pretty positive this article exposes just the tip of an ugly iceberg.

She should explore what went on at Woodstock.

When articles like DEBAUCHERY IN THE DESERT: A BEGINNER’S GUIDE TO COACHELLA are widely published, a wise attendee would have some expectations that things may get just a wee bit crude, carefree, and out-of-control. The authoress protests too much.

The definition of sexual harassment is so elastic it includes saying, “Good morning,” in the wrong tone of voice. It’s amazing one hundred percent of the women aren’t claiming harassment.

And young single women goes to these things because they are sure any young single men going to them are perfect gentlemen?

No, I am not saying any inappropriate behavior is “deserved”. Then again, if I were a young woman I wouldn’t go places where I am relatively sure such inappropriate behavior has a high chance of occurring, and if I did just happen to go I would go only with a number of friends - more than two - and I would ALWAYS be together with those friends; never alone.

“Teen Vogue said all 54 women who spoke to the magazine during Coachella had a story about being sexually assaulted or harassed over that weekend.”

Right. But isn’t that kinda the point of going there, especially for teenage girls looking to grab the undivided attention of those of the straight male teenage persuasion?

Well not real sexual assault. But then look at the writer’s own list of being “repeatedly violated by strangers”- it includes being ‘insulted’, being ‘spoken to inappropriately’, and ‘being followed’. I’ll grant her the being groped part is sexual assault, but the inclusion of the other stuff ought to make you wonder what even the groping involved. I’m betting it’s a whole lot tamer than what the term sexual assault conjures up.
