So whenever you feel like putting your hands on them, you can say so, and give them an opportunity to back away from you or say no!

Not to get too far into this topic, but you've (when you were in that situation) literally explained step-by-step what you wanted to do before you did it?

Sometimes I say what I want, sometimes I don't.  I don't really remember what it was like the last time I was trying to get something from someone new; I've been faithfully married for ten years.  Obviously the things that are said and done now that the two of us are so familiar with each other, are different.  But as I think back, I do remember taking it slow, making eye contact, doing a dance of backing off and coming together again.  A kiss is not a first move.  A hug, or a handhold, or a pat, is.  Verbal, not always, but if you take a two steps forward then one step back approach, it feels romantic and not rushed, and also respects the fact that she can say no at any time.
And I think that's how most people develop their physical relationships.
And I think that's completely opposite of what Trump so crassly said.
