I was working in a shop. When I went out onto the shop floor to tidy up, a group of drunk men came in and started making sexual comments to me and about me. As I turned to go back behind the counter one of them grabbed my vagina from behind, putting his hand right between my legs. The rest of the group cheered and other men in the shop laughed – there were around 40 men and I was the only woman. When I looked at my manager to ask him to throw them out he was laughing too – he told me it was a compliment and I should be pleased. I never felt safe working there or with that manager again.
