I am explaining how the victim feels. The issue is not the groper, the issue is everyone else, who may or may not react the way you think they should.
Look back at the story of the woman who stood up for her feelings at the tech conference by calling out behavior she thought was inappropriate. Some people agreed with her, but others derided and attacked her.
Whether one side or the other was more morally correct in your eyes is not the point. The point is that it sucks to be the object of social tension.
And it's not really fair for you to define how tolerant other people should be of that pressure.
