In 2nd grade there was some kind of puppet show (I think it was for D.A.R.E.? Was supposed to be teaching us something anyhow) and one of the ladies made her puppet flirt with me. I don't remember what she said and it couldn't have been too inappropriate because nobody did anything but I remember feeling deeply uncomfortable, but didn't really know what to do so I never said anything.
Told my mom and sister on a whim a year or two ago and they didn't take it seriously. Smiled and laughed a little and only stopped when it was clear I didn't think it was funny.
I was AMAB and still identifying as a boy then. I know the whole "but what if the genders were reversed" argument gets abused frequently but I still have to wonder if things would be different, both at the time and later when I said something, if I'd been a little girl and the puppeteer was some random man flirting with me.
I felt this same uncomfortable feeling so many times from adults as a child even up to being a teenager and i never understood why and could never tell my parents about it cause i couldn't explain it myself
