Have you ever been in the situation where you have felt a women's fear of you? Let me explain.
Around 1981-82 a rapist was on the loose in Melbourne, Australia. He had raped 3 women in lifts and was called the 'Lift rapist'.
I thought little about it at the time except to wonder why some men do that. One day I entered a lift in a skyscraper. The lift went up and before my floor it stopped and a woman entered the lift. She took the diagonal corner to me and turned to face half way around from me. Within a few moments I felt a sensation I had never felt before, nor since. I could feel or sense fear.
It was somewhat puzzling. The lift stopped at my floor and I got off. I thought no more about it for a few weeks until a fellow was arrested over the rapes. I remembered that incident and thought more about it.
Part of me could understand her fear as she did not know me and I could have been that rapist.
Part of me though was outraged. I was being accused by her for no reason except for my gender.
Has anyone else ever had that sensation?
