I hear ya. I guess it's a matter of attributing infallibility to authority figures who are skilled at manipulation. Victims who have it in their character not to displease anyone whatever the peril or dissonance in the experience. I'd like to think if I was a college freshman or even in high school and he tried to pull this on me (pun intended), I'd say (and not to sound too flip), "What the **ks the matter with you old man? You think you're gonna j*rk me off. Think again you stunted freak. Hey everybody...this guy wants to wank me so I can run faster and he won't even buy me dinner."

I just don't see how it gets that far in the absence of violent threats - how it can become serialized. In my understanding of the universe (which may be limited), the compliance/enabling in this dyad is unfathomable. For someone who is relatively self-aware to be co-opted like this is sad and confounding. But it is what it is and it does happen with obscene regularity. Not victim blaming, just completely bewildered that (in the absence of violence) people of relative sanity will allow this to happen. "No, get the hell away from me Mr. Pedophile." Of course many times the advances of degenerates are quashed by assertive people who can issue a definitive NO to abusers. It's the people who acquiesce to such nonesense I wish could assert themselves and say, "Screw you *ssh*le." Then again what do I know writing this from the comfort of my home and far from a manipulative bast*rd.
