The following text accompanies this work:
'I was walking down a street in Manhattan when I saw a man walking towards me. His daughter was holding his hand and his young son was behind him on a scooter. As the distance between us got shorter I could tell that he was intensely staring at me, studying my legs, my sundress, my cleavage. Just as our paths crossed he lunged towards me and whispered, "Mmmm, I'd like to taste your chocolate." I was most horrifed that his daughter was right there, watching her father verbally assault me, while his son was behind learning from his actions.'
