That is a real possibility.

My husband had to fire an incompetent employee. The guy knew that my husband is a hunter and has rifles.

So to get back at him, the guy called the police and said that he was driving around with our small children in the back and shooting out of his window.

I got a knock on the door...my husband was at work...and it was the police.

They wanted to see his guns. I took them down to the basement and showed them: three rifles, all locked.

It was unnerving. The guy had sent a fax or called from a Kinko’s so it was untraceable. But he knew who it was.

There sure is not much groping out here in Omaha, NE. The gropable women are all married, so that makes groping technically adultery and most of us men are at least somewhat Christian and in my case Catholic which means ANOTHER TRIP to the Confessional.

I can hear the priest now: “Oh FCOL Sap, whad’ja do this time?”

If I grope I grab and squeeze my beautiful borzoi. She gets all my affection these days until a cute foxy widow pirates me away.

Groping? Come on ladies just slap the man next time he does this. Just because Biden is a groper does not mean it is ok.

Some people are touchy-feely; they simply like the contact with people and believe it's mutual.

Some people hate to be touched to the extreme. A woman once accused me of breathing on her while I was standing in line behind her. Krazy Karen Syndrome is real.

A very small number of men touch women for sexual thrills.

If a woman has a boss who is touching her for his own thrills and she has a record of reporting his unwanted touching maybe this could be useful.

But as someone said, she can touch herself or ask a co-conspirator to touch her to build a false case of inappropriate touching.

Thus, this dress can be used for good or for evil depending on the psyche and motivations of the woman.

Oh yes. I’m a woman and I know that if you touch a man’s arm, briefly, the man takes notice.

All the data shows is the dress indicated the woman was touched. It does not show by whom or for what reason.

In a crowded night club, it could simply be accident.

It could be the woman touching herself.

It does not mean what the author is saying it does.

If touching arms and lower back are sexual harassment now - I’m glad I got to experience young adult life in the 80’s and 90’s.
Some of the things I did (with great success) and some of the things done to me (also with great success) on the dance floor and near the bar would probably land me in jail today.

There are sensors in the dresses that are connected to computers via a wifi connection.

Calling B.S.

I watched the video. It showed someone sewing a dress and then placing a grid of what looked like contact “buttons” on the dress, which I presume were supposed to be the touch detectors. There was nothing connecting these buttons, which looked like physical buttons.

To connect it with WiFi you’d need a set of contacts, wires between the contacts, a small CPU to take in the signals, a battery large enough to drive the system, and a WiFi antenna. I saw none of that.

This dress is just meant to prove a point and will not be made available commercially.

Further proof this is a fake.

That is so not groping. Groping is touching a woman’s breasts, butt, or crotch, or continuing to touch AFTER being told not to. Men would put their hands on a woman’s waist to guide her to a table or dance floor. Touching a woman’s arm - hardly groping. It’s all a little dance. A man touches a woman’s arm indicating he’s interested. The woman doesn’t move away indicating she’s potentially interested. Later he might touch her waist. Still later he might put his hand on her thigh. If she allows it to stay, fine. If she removes his hand, she’s told him that’s too far.

Is there some sort of a Reach Under Detector?

Joementia got away with that years ago.

As if it couldn’t be faked by self-groping. Jeez.

Sometimes the woman doesn’t even need to touch anybody to get what she wants.

A relative was told at a certain gun shop that they were out of a specific kind of ammo. So a short time later, he sent his wife in to the same shop and they miraculously found some of the desired ammo to sell to her.

All Female Staffers of ‘President Suspect’ Biden should be issued these dresses, STAT! ;)

So should their children!

The most-touched areas of the body were the backside, arms, and lower back.


‘Arms’ is ‘groping’? Lower back/waist is debateable and contextual - but arms?

When I am on the subway, during certain parts of the loading/shifting process, my backside gets bumped, but I’ve never noticed it in the form that I’d call it ‘groping’. It even occasionally happens when going through crowded doorways - though I’ll note that it only even registers if I’m thinking about it.

Maybe part of the issue with the men ‘disbelieving’, is the women there speaking a different language.

Good Heavens, not that!

A man touched my arm and I was chagrined.   What is the world coming to?

The video shows what most people would know to be true. A very attractive woman going to a crowded dance club in Brazil is likely to get touched on the dance floor. Some of the men in the video look like boors, but that's kind of what everyone expects to find in that environment.

That is probably why both the men and the women go there.

Does anybody remember the disco craze of the 70s? Why did many men and women go to discos?
