Patting bottoms, eyeing breasts and throwing out leery comments is now deemed deeply anachronistic and vile manners. Dave Lee Travis, a 69 year old father of two, is roundly punished and humiliated for his actions. Travis is in a long line of men who in the early 21st century are called to account for their behaviour towards women. They are puzzled and at a certain level incensed by this. They had come of age in a period when Victorian manners towards women were on the retreat, seen as outdated and hypocritical. These men had believed in messages about casualness and sexual liberation, but it seems they had fatally misinterpreted what a world with a few less sexual manners would actually be like. Slowly, society is learning to reheat some of the basic lessons that Victorian etiquette books always stressed – that men must be careful around women, that they must never touch or look at them inappropriately and that the overwhelming priority is never to cause anyone else discomfort through one's advances. Men like Dave Lee Travis are judged to be pathological and sexual predators. Looked at through a longer lens, they could also simply be accused of having forgotten their manners.
