My Embarrassing Encounter with a “Willy Grabber”
I’ll never forget the day I was walking down the street and a man suddenly grabbed my buttcheeks and pulled out his “willy.” It was one of the most horrifying and humiliating experiences of my life.
I was so shocked and scared that I froze in place. The man just stood there, grinning at me, and I could feel his breath on my neck. I was so embarrassed and ashamed that I wanted to disappear. Finally, he walked away, and I was left standing there, shaking and trying to catch my breath.
