In most places I ever worked, male coworkers touches me like my arm, shoulder, back, legs, hands, wrist etc.
Ugh! I'm very sorry to hear this.

Doesn't matter even if the guy is handsome.
I feel violated.
I would too. I certainly wouldn't want random co-workers touching me. (Luckily for me, I work from home.)
What would happen if you were to say to these men, "Please don't touch me" (in a gently assertive way, without being mean about it)?
Have you seen them touch other women co-workers too? If so, how do the other women respond?
Do they touch you only, or primarily, when you are alone with them, or also in the presence of other co-workers? (This might make a difference in terms of the best way to handle the situation.)
