Sorry about the link, but I have a new computer, and I can't figure out why my attempts to embed a video are not working. Anyway, this video seems appropriate for the thread...Man Gropes Reporter Instantly Regrets It. Seriously guys, keep your hands to yourself!

I'm becoming very worried about these trumped-up shamings and charges against people for very minor things. Was she injured? Did it interfere with her work? Did she have endless anxiety attacks?
Forcible touching? How vague can you get? That's like when some stranger kindly grabbed me to keep me from falling.
Slapping a stranger on the ass without permission is NOT a very minor thing. At least trump consented to Stormy's spank.

It is a minor thing, the man need to be reprimanded by the woman or management, not charged with a crime, sheesh, let's grow up. We're tuning into a creepy police state and women are so fragile they can't handle the smallest issues. Men are not far behind, they want to call police if some guy gets in their face instead of being a man and handling it.

Considering telling men no for the last hundred years hasn't worked to keep it from happening, this is the only logical step for men to learn to keep their hands to their self.
Sometimes a man slaps another man or a woman on the butt quite often, or vice versa. The person who gets slapped might not mind getting slapped whereas another who does get slapped will mind. However, especially in this era of #MeToo, the problem is determining when it becomes assault. If that waitress repeatedly expressed "no" (body language can be tricky with that), then I agree it is assault.
Clarallel, does bring upt a relevant point of defining "forcible touching". A partial problem is that a law might define a specific offense as happening under specific circumstances. Going with Clarell's example, a random stranger grabbing Clarallel from behind to prevent Clarallel from falling would be "assault" or "unwanted touching". Just as a law can be too vague to define what circumstances constitute when an offense happens, it could also be too specific. Finding a middle ground is difficult.
That's the problem when laws apply to intentions rather than specific acts.
No, not at all, and my comment was not meant to imply as much, so let me be clear for those of you who did not learn this in kindergarten...
PEOPLE, KEEP YOUR HANDS TO YOURSELF!
Just checking.
There are a lot of double standards with regards to sexual harassment/domestic violence against men by women, especially with regards to media coverage.
