On the contrary, the golden rule states "Do unto others as you would
have them do unto you."  I think this changes the situation a little!

This hypothetical situation is ridiculous anyway (as are most such
situations).  The "correct" way to handle this varies with the
person you ask.  To try to persuade another to see your point of
view on such things as these is as ridiculous as trying to persuade
a blue-eyed person to become green-eyed.  Different upbringing, different
social mores, etc. determine the reaction to this.
