For me, it was a sort of challenge... i'd been out with my girlfriend to see a band at the local tech college and she was moaning that she had guys groping her - i said so did i! I've always been quite "petite" and in the 70s i had hair down to my waist, wore tight jeans and floaty shirts so... she said "you should see what it's like in a skirt!" and i muttered "yeah, right..."
Next time i arrived to take her out to see some bands, she had her older sister's clothes laid out waiting for me! After she'd helped me dress, done my makeup she let me look in the mirror and WOW, this is how i'm meant to be!
We went out (i was bricking it...) and i loved the different attitude i got from everyone, it was like i was the girl i'd wanted to be when i was at school, but grown up, i'd known since starting secondary that i wasn't "one of the lads".
We had a brilliant time, and yes, i did get groped more in a short denim skirt than i had in jeans! Anna and i ended up sat on a guy's knees in the bar between bands, and i ended up driving him home (he was trollied!) and we got invited in...
