    I’m not CPR certified or anything, but I think if you’re just grabbing titties you’re probably doing it wrong.

        Can you post any example of a mob attacking someone for performing CPR on a woman?

        Seems like a pretty wild assumtion that you will be attacked for helping someone in a life threathening state by some nebulous “them.”

          You’ve NEVER seen someone mis-perceive help as harm?

            Not CPR, no.

              Then you’re either lying or not observant enough. Are you a man? Because if you aren’t, it’s likely you don’t understand how it feels to get accused.

                  https://japantoday.com/category/national/man-revives-woman-with-aed-but-branded-pervert-for-removing-her-clothes-to-apply-electrode-pads

                  Stop trying to deny that it happens. It’s risky af for men to help, why do you think they don’t do it? Anyway why is it up to men to help? Why can’t women help? Since they’re obviously in a better position, and generally aren’t considered perverts by default.

      For sure! But I didn’t say you WERE grabbing titties, just that you’re perceived to be.

      I mean just getting the electrodes on for a defibrillator you have to lift their shirt…

      Can you see that being perceived poorly?

        Unlikely that someone holding a defibrillator next to someone passed out on the ground is going to be perceived poorly.

          Unfortunately in a panic scenario like that, sometimes people don’t see things as clearly as they might normally.

          And people aren’t great on a normal day either.

          Not everyone is going to have access to a defibrillator.

          You would think so, right? But the reality is that men are always assumed to have the worst intentions. Especially in hindsight. i.e. “he didn’t need to do that right? he must be trying to cop a feel”.

          Same reason men aren’t usually kindergarten teachers, because they’re immediately assumed to be pedos.

        You also need to make sure their bra doesn’t have an underwire and remove it if there is.

      Even though you’re joking I wouldn’t be surprised if someone did react like that. “Uhhmmmm, that’s no CPR, you’re just fondling her! I know because I went to CPR training.”
