to think this street performer should not have grabbed this woman?

Street Entertainer today - the man with big balls.

He needed some people from the audience. So he picked the "beautiful lady" and "the ugly bloke". Lots of sexual innuendos.

He "made" the bloke profess his love to his girlfriend and then arranged for them to hug.

But what really made me feel uncomfortable was when he grabbed a young woman who was sat near him to take part. He needed a woman "to hold his balls" .(he was standing on a large ball). She did not want to do it and tried to sit down but he had a tight hold of her wrist and did not let go despite her saying no and wanting to sit down. He kept trying to persuade her and eventually let go.

It made me feel really uncomfortable. He would not have done that to a bloke and she clearly did not want to take part.

But he's a street performer so he thinks he can get away with anything.

He grabbed her and that's assault. She would have been within her rights to kick him in those balls.

Totally out of order

I hate this kind of thing. DD is going to be taught that people like this get one warning, then feel free to lamp him.

Think I would have kicked his balls. (So he fell off it)

Hate people "trying to entertain". If you have to try..... Give it up.....

YANBU he was not skilled. It's a fine line.....I used to work in theatre and now and then did theatre in education where we had to get audience members (sullen teens) up to participate...there's a small window...where you can hassle them and then if they aren't getting up you stop...before it gets uncomfortable.
