I hate having to do this.  Let me say again, i hate the idea of sexual assault.  It's not a joking matter, i don't condone it in any way.  My beef here is that i don't believe this contrived stuff for a second.  

 

1.) The girl on the plane talks about a miraculous move to first class, and then being groped IN PUBLIC.  No witnesses just a story.  

 

2.) The people writer...  In his house while His preggers wife was upstairs and the Butler was outside?  Really?

 

3.) Sexual assault is serious.  In my view, sexual assault consists of any lewd act committed against someone's will.  Male or female.  IF some ramdom woman just comes up and palms my nether regions then that's assault.  That's different from a romantic advance.  A romantic advance would be touching of the knee kissing on the cheek or on the lips that doesn't threaten lewd activity in and of itself.  If someone makes a pass at someone gets turned down and then moves on i don't see that as sexual assault, i see that's as getting shot down.  If you respect the fact that a person was just that into you despite misreading rapport or friendliness than i don't think that's a crime.  Now, if someone just walks into a room and you are petting little bill then that's another story...  

 

And this goes beyond this case or this election.  A friend that tries a kiss in the middle of a sentence isn't a rapist.
