It wasn't always that way. There was a time when men only got slapped around the face for this kind of thing, and there was never any question of legal action, but that all changed back when I was only a teenager. Doubtless some of you are too young to remember, but in those days nobody had ever heard of such a concept as sexual harassment. Women would speak of WHT (wandering hand trouble) and perhaps even refer to such a man as a wolf in the US, but they would never call the cops, who may not have done anything anyway.
However, if you were to slap a woman across the face for lifting your kilt, you'd probably be up on assault charges, so that's not an option either. Actually, lifting your kilt is an assault, but I agree that I wouldn't press charges for that.
