I understand feeling put off that you have to extricate from the situation, but panic or gagging are not the normal responses of an adult.
Look, I’m not saying these men didn’t highjack a business hookup and try and turn it into a date.

Hey Be Normal

Is being “normal” a goal worth striving for?

Can “That’s not normal” conceivably be used to shame people?

Is normalcy a new virtue?

If someone felt like gagging or felt panicky, I would consider that as a valid response instead of comparing it to a yardstick of “normality”.

I want to know what people are feeling without judging.
