"Rub against me and I'll expose you"

Does that slogan say, anything that will discourage a would-be groper?

Violence Jack Off. A clothing store.

Though in the plaza by my house there was a sign for the pet store for ages that said puppy sale. The problem being that it was on the corner of the plaza pointing directly at the chinese restaurant.

How about touch me and I'll break your arm.  I actually did that once.

That would be an excellent campaign for violence jack off. Though unfortunately they closed the store :(

Status: offline 		I cant remember the city, but some years ago, a woman was groped on a bus, an uncrowded bus at that, and she proceeded to break the guys arm, jaw and two ribs. 
Due to the fact she was a black belt, she was convicted of assualt, and he was covicted of public lewdness...

Status: offline 		The random average groper or flasher is not going to expect a woman to fight back, so she does have the element of surprise in her favor.
 
I would go with either all female subway trains or having a large dog with me.
