I've had to deal with physical aggression twice recently. I took both incidents as opportunities to put my Stoic skills to use. I'll discuss one of the incidents here in case it's useful to you.
A close associate was overly familiar with me physically. I explained that I didn't like it, and that for our friendship to work he would have to stop. The person protested. I said something like "Look, I really like you and I know you don't mean anything by it. I'm just not that way."
There were others there who backed me up and said they didn't like it either. He does the same thing to them, apparently.
I may as well say it: many young men (one generation younger than my own) seem to bond with each other by pretending to be homosexual. "Pretending" is used pretty loosely here. I know actual homosexuals and none has ever groped me. They've been very respectful. Anyway, it's like that. I'm not into it. I don't find it funny.
"If it was me I would have taken that guy down."
I couldn't. It would have been no contest. I'll fight if it crosses the line but it would be more of a "go down swinging" kind of thing. Also I like the guy and I don't think he means any harm. And suppose I could easily take him down? I would hope that I would try this strategy first in either case. It's more rationale.
I did tell him that if he is gay and not out we could talk about it. This distressed him. He said "if I was gay I could do so much better than you." I laughed at that. I enjoyed his distress, but I meant what I said. Maybe the guy is gay and just can't handle it. We shall see.
First say to yourself what you would be; and then do what you have to do.
The casino is waiting for you.
