Interesting you should ask because after I got over the anger and began to think about it, I realized that I had put my hand through many a woman's hair on a first date or even encounter. But that's the point here. This wasn't a date or encounter. I was in this Professor's office to discuss my graduate paper on Aristotle. He was a reader of my paper. He was a chubby guy who was supposedly married and a reverend to boot.

To be honest, I did have a gorgeous female professor run her hand through my hair while we were discussing my paper in the student cafeteria two years earlier when I was in college and I was shocked too and didn't flinch. But she asked me immediately "if she did something wrong". I said, "I don't think so". She then said, "good, will you come over for dinner tonight?" And I said "yes".

I did resolve this within myself by admitting that the male professor had a right to make a play and what he did was not so terrible. After all, he only put his hand through my hair. I just didn't like it because as you say, "I wasn't attracted to him".
