It sounds like you are dealing with small groups of women who are trying to intimidate, that is the picture I am getting here. Well, give them a surprise instead of how you are probably acting, which is "avoiding". Instead when they do this "moan" like you "enjoy" it. Can even say, "ah human contact" mmmm. And that will "gross them out" and put "them" on the defensive. It works well, called "reverse psychology". It is "not" the desired affect they will expect either. Though it may seem gross, well, they are asking for it, time to take the control unhappyguy.
