They seem to have this “long embrace” on video.
For the life of me, I cannot imagine touching anyone in the workplace these days. There is too much liability.
But, a hug is not exactly sexual assault.
I might argue that point with you. My research includes having been “hugged” by a man who was trying to entertain himself without my permission. He was standing behind me, for the record. I am embarrassed just writing this. It was in public, in a line waiting to check in at a car dealership. This man was the husband of a friend and I could never be in his presence without an escort after that.
