I find masterbating usually stops that anti social and frankly weird behaviour

Take a pet with you, preferably a dog the bigger the better. It will dose off in the gangway beside you and other passengers just love the routine of stepping over it en route to the toilet or buffet car, and then repeating the exercise on the return journey to their seat

I always find the answer to the question of whether to strike up conversation with your fellow passengers is directly related to the amount of "train beers" consumed.

A friends brother once bought the entire bar out much to the amusement of the queue behind.
They must have really appreciated it as they all glared at us while walking past out table..
Having your 4 year old vomit on the Eurostar while everyone's eating their meal is also another way to make friends I've found!.

This used to work great with Sabor (my GSD) especially funny was when the ticket collector/train manager came along and all those who'd had to squeeze past him (and then sat 'chuntering' about scruffy hippies with big dogs) were expecting me to be told off saw the official fussing the dog and praising him.Take a pet with you, preferably a dog the bigger the better.

I once asked a guy why train staff liked big dogs on trains to be told "We get less 'lairy' behaviour from 'youths' on trains when there's a dog in the carriage"
[QUOTE 4861360, member: 259"]So one incident translates to 'men openly masturbating' on the streets and on the trains? Yeah, right.[/QUOTE]
I wouldn't say openly, but men harassing women by masturbating on public transport is extremely common, in the UK as much as anywhere else. My experience accords with Liz's - I'd guess that most women who go out frequently in public have experienced these incidents in double figures by the time they are 20. It doesn't often happen to men, so they wouldn't notice it.

You're probably right. I was annoyed by the 'in Europe' bit.[/QUOTE]
Fairy nuff. I've not done enough pan-European travelling to make meaningful comparisons, but I suppose I would expect the prevalence of public harassment to correlate broadly with the state of women's rights and their cultural status. It seems to me that the UK is in no position to criticize other nations for the phenomenon of seedy train w*nkers...

On busy commuter trains make sure it has been fed something that has it farting every few minutes - just enough to keep up a rancid smell level. Fellow passengers will wrinkle their noses, but also secretly be thanking you as they can time their own emissions to the dog and let it take the blame.Take a pet with you, preferably a dog the bigger the better.

If you board a train without etiquette, you will have to apologise politely to the Tiquette Inspector.
