Video Of Drunk Elderly Man Demanding Sex From A Young Man On The MRT Goes Viral

In a somewhat bizarre video that has gone viral, an elderly man, believed to be a Singaporean, was seen demanding for sex from another male passenger on the train.

The video was first uploaded by Facebook Joe DeMarini yesterday, 20 April, who shared about his harrowing experience.

"Just a heads up, this guy physically assaulted me on the MRT, so if you ever see him, be on your guard. I was with a friend and he approached me — drunk — and said he was gay, and that he wanted to f##k me. He said, 'I know you're gay, so let's f##k'," DeMarini wrote on the post.

"You're a f##cking gay. I’m a gay also," he exclaimed in public.

In response, DeMarini said that he's not a gay. However, the man continued to harass DeMarini and claimed that DeMarini had made a "signal" to him.

DeMarini, who hails from Pennsylvania, USA, also stressed this in his post on Facebook.

"I'm not gay (not that it should matter). However, I don't exactly fit the "masculine" mould of society, so oftentimes I am mistaken as queer--on several occasions around the world, for example, I've caught flak for carrying a 'man purse'," he explained.

However, it didn't matter as the man kept provoking DeMarini.

"I want you to f##k me tonight," the man told DeMarini repeatedly.

Below is the transcript of what transpired before the man slapped DeMarini on the side of his head:

Elderly man: Can I kiss you? I want to kiss you now.

DeMarini's friend: Are you mentally even stable?

DeMarini: No, if you kiss me, I’ll punch your f##cking face off.

Elderly man: You see, see, he use vulgar word.

DeMarini's friend (to DeMarini): Shhh.

DeMarini: Sorry, I know, I know.

Elderly man: Use one more vulgar, I’m going to slap you.

After saying this, the man got upset and immediately slapped DeMarini before anyone could stop him.

One of the bystanders, believed to be a Caucasian woman, approached the man and tried to calm him down.

Although it appears that her efforts were futile, she did stop the man from making any further attacks on DeMarini.

Another bystander stepped in and came to the young man's aid just moments later. The bystander stood in between them while the elderly man kept going on and on and blamed DeMarini for "signalling' him.

According to DeMarini, he managed to get off the MRT safely with his friend eventually.

"When my friend and I got off at our stop, he got off as well, but we managed to evade him and leave the station without him following us."

"I wish I'd said thank you to the train people who took a stand and put themselves between me and this man, but I was too rattled to muster it (at least I could thank my friend, who had the good sense to make a video)," he wrote.

"I wish I'd sat in a different train car, and the whole situation could've been avoided. Was it the V-neck I was wearing? My ripped skinny jeans? I probably should have held my temper, but that's not my character."

"Could I have found a way to peacefully diffuse the whole situation? It's obviously not my fault but, somehow, a part of me is convinced it was," he said.

There are those who asked DeMarini why he did not fight back or call the police. Responding to this question, DeMarini said, "I say, 'I am a white immigrant in a country where I do not have citizenship and am a minority — law enforcement may not take my side, despite video and photo evidence'."

"A slap on the head is nothing, really, but I feel completely unsettled — Singapore has been a trial by fire since my first day, and this doesn't help. In all honesty, I'm a bit tipsy and have no idea what I'm feeling."
