Has everyone lost their collective minds??

10. Nice post.

You've stated truth.

It is appropriate to apologize with no excuses, and moving forward even more appropriate to refrain from touching unless invited. I hate to say that because touch is part of what makes us human - to reach out for one another. But, until we get this rape culture thing under control, we have to forego the physical contact unless invited.

That's just the way it is.

The world has moved on, as Stephen King would say, and that isn't an entirely bad thing.
