You'd be suprised what you can press charges for. Laying your hands on someone that doesn't wish to have your hands on them is assault. If that hand goes towards the "no no zone" ie: my ASS then it can be considered sexual assault. There is even 4th degree assault, which is threatening someone or getting in their face but not touching them.
I however settled for scaring the shit out of him and calling him a childish name and making him look like an asshole in front of his friends (one of which was a girl who didn't know he'd done it, and was smacking him on the way out). I doubt he'll be back, and I'm not worried about it. See, it's funny NOW. It wasn't then, but now it's just another one of the completely wack and absurd things that seem to happen to me now and then. I'm over it. If I SEE him again I'll probably punch him (if I'm not working) but the chances of that are slim.

Well I'm no US law expert but if I remember (and translate) correctly there is sexual harrasment and sexual assault. Sexual harrasment happens when somebody tries to use hir superior position to force you to have sexual contact of any kind whereas sexual assault is when somebodt uses violence (understood in the broadest of terms) to have sexual contact with you. Both things can happen at the same time
Sexual harrasment has to do with power: the person harrassing you must have some kind of power above you (i.e. your boss) to force you, although this power doesn't have to be real, just percieved by the harrassed (this comes to avoid aninteresting and useful line of defense at the beginning of these crimes according to which, as legally your boss can't fire you because you're not having sex with him, he has no real power over you). Sexual assault, on the other hand, has only to do with some fuckwit with a dick sprouting out of his forehead and vision problens because his genitalia fall over his eyes. This is a case of sexual assault. Go get a lawyer and a shrink, have the shrink certificate that ass slapping caused you psychologycal damage for a thousand bucks and sue him for the thousand bucks and the lawyer's and shrink's fee.
Boy I really wish I was American. No I didn't say that. I mean I wished I could take care of all your cases, just for the sake of it and the pleasure of helping my friends.
