Was out in town yesterday and got chatting to this lady at the bar. She seemed very nice and told me she fancied this guy who was in the bar. Fast forward 30 mins there she is getting fingered by this guy on the dance floor😟. Do people have no self-awareness or respect now? Or is it just the lust of alcohol.

I worked in hospitality and I’ve seen some sights including but not limited to: fingerbanging in a booth, the toilet threesome of 2017, flashing on a teachers staff night out… and that was just the punters, some of our staff were horn dogs. There was a specific booth in the spoons I worked at that was “secluded” (or at least drunk people thought it was) and we had to make sure to walk past it often because people would get very frisky there. Alcohol disinhibits people and for some people it really really disinhibits them.

Is it acceptable then?

You go to a nightclub, expect to see life. Go to a big city, expect to see life.

Doesn't matter if you personally find it acceptable or not. You're going to have to learn that life isn't as clean you'd like and people will do things you don't like.

Yes but a grown 50 year old woman with kids should know that getting fingered in public viewing is a bit strange.

Yhe but at least go in the disabled toilet or something I had much less contempt for toilet shaggers vs the people in the booth 😭

WallyHilloughby · 22/02/2026 11:36

Ahhh those were the days lol
OP it may surprise you to hear some people have sex in club toilets too…. (Obviously not me I’ve always been far too proper)

RealEagle · 22/02/2026 11:38

I remember the venue in new cross in the early 90s,you see a lot more than that.

MsPug · 22/02/2026 11:39

Why are you banging on about the alcohol? Are you the bloke and was worried it wasn't your natural charm after all?

Olderandwiserpossibly · 22/02/2026 11:40

chelseyw23 · 22/02/2026 11:18

It was the alcohol that probably made her horny is what I’m saying!

But you are saying because the alcohol lowered her inhibitions she participated in a public sexual act which she probably wouldn't have consented to if she hadn't been drinking.
Isn't that what arguments about informed consent are about?

Because it’s the alcohol that makes you sexually excited!

If you go to a bar or a nightclub you're going to see some sights.

Have you thought about writing a letter of complaint to the establishment?

I can only assume you are being deliberately obtuse.

Id say back in the 90s/00s, the dance floors were more packed and you just didnt notice as much!

Curious to know how old OP is and whether this was her first time in a nightclub….

I remember a gig in the early 90s where some couple were having sex on a table

Endofyear · 22/02/2026 12:51

So? They're strangers to you, who cares what they do?

She just felt horny and decides to do that. Unacceptable

At least she wasn’t noshing him off on the dance floor.
