You’re on the subway, heading to work, when someone rubs up against you in an inappropriate way. In New York City is happens to women more often than you think.

CBS 2 HD has learned the Metropolitan Transportation Authority has no real plan to deal with the problem.

It’s rush hour and the subway is full of people in a hurry to get somewhere. And that’s when it usually happens.

“Somebody came up behind me and touched my butt,” Judith Doren said.

A study by Manhattan Borough President Scott Stringer found 63 percent of women surveyed reported being sexually harassed while on subways and another 10 percent said they were sexually assaulted.

The study also found that 69 percent of the women surveyed reported they had felt the threat of sexual assault or harassment while on the city subway system.

“Felt the threat”? Sounds to me like a couple of fatties were sticking their big ol’ butts out and waiting for a grouping which went unfulfilled.

I dunno though, I also feel like this number might be slightly inflated. Like I’m sure I’ve gotten penises all over me on the train (some deliberate, some not; who are you to judge?!?!)…it’s kind of what happens when you’re in extremely close quarters with a couple hundred other people in a 40×10 box. There was a midget on the 6 train the other day and fortunately for him, the train wasn’t packed. Otherwise I would have delicately placed my scrotum on his head. It’s not sexual harassment, it’s a fact of life.
