As he tells it, in a document filed in response to Burnes’ restraining order request, Forest on his first day at work “greeted Siphannay Burnes with a quick, friendly hug and thanked her” for making travel and housing arrangements when he interviewed for the job.
“I didn’t think that much of the hug because she hugged me back,” Forest writes. “The culture at CSU-Monterey Bay is very friendly and congenial… hugs are common among colleagues at the university and in the community.”
But Burnes, the administrative and research analyst for the College of Health Sciences and Human Services, told her supervisor, Dean Britt Rios-Ellis, the hug made her uncomfortable. Beyond making her uncomfortable, it also triggered memories of past sexual trauma.

In the United States, the common law requires the contact for battery be "harmful or offensive." The offensiveness is measured against a reasonable person standard. Looking at a contact objectively, as a reasonable person would see it, would this contact be offensive? Thus, a hypersensitive person would fail on a battery action if jostled by fellow passengers on a subway, as this contact is expected in normal society and a reasonable person would not find it offensive. Harmful is defined by any physical damage to the body.
Because propagandists have to push propaganda.I have no idea why a story like this would make you vote for Donald Trump except that he grabs ******s and it's cool or something?
From your source:
Not battery.
...says the defendant. Battery says the plaintiff.

She isn't being reasonable. Even in a tort I don't think she could get to 7 jurors that would side with her.
I have no idea why a story like this would make you vote for Donald Trump except that he grabs ******s and it's cool or something?
Anyways, what would you tell your daughter/wife/mother/any female in your life if she came home from work and said some guy she didn't really know hugged her and it made her feel uncomfortable?

...says the defendant. Battery says the plaintiff. Is being grabbed and squeezed by a man at work something you would reasonably tolerate? I wouldn't. And I don't imagine most women would have the ability to handle the situation the way I would, so: lawsuit.
I guess we'll have to follow the case if we want to find if it's battery.

She is being reasonable if she truly suffered harm. If it was accidental contact then the defendant is protected even if the plaintiff was hypersensitive to such contact, but an unsolicited hug is intentional and could rise to the level of battery if harm can be shown. Not sure how much she could collect in damages, but it's not automatically a frivolous lawsuit.
I would comfort her and tell her if there's anything else we'll seek legal remedy.
I don't believe that absent intent this kind of thing should destroy lives.
Male/female relationships are in flux right now. Slamming the pendulum the other way will not help.
I was raised that paying compliments to women was a nice thing to do. Not "You've got a nice ass!" but "Thats a nice dress". Now it could destroy my life.
We need to watch the unintended consequences going forward.
At this rate we're going to need contracts to dance with someone at a club lest it potentially destroy one party's life.
We need to address toxic masculinity without sweeping non-toxic masculinity along with it.
Do you really want me to not rescue you from a fire or drowning because it involves touching that wasn't clearly authorized? That's an extreme example, but I think you get the point.
We need to be careful here, is what I'm trying to say.
When will men ever learn?
One cannot do or say anything at school, at work, or in public that some female will not complain about.
So do NOT even say "Good morning" unless she says it first. And when you say it, keep your eyes straight ahead.
Of course, never say anything as provocative as "I really like your new sweater." Oh, my! She might find that offensive and dissolve into tears.
Someday, somehow, the MeToo generation is going to get its comeuppance for what it has started, but I do not know how and when.
(P.S. Of course, if you do NOT say "Good morning" first, she might find that in itself harassment. Men cannot win.)

It cannot rise to the level of battery in the US. It can be sued as a tort and my guess is a jury would not agree with her.
Hypersensitive goes directly to the reasonable person clause of all laws.
So what in the world does Trump's "electability" have to do with this? Somehow you read this and said "Trump's going to get re-elected". Connect the dots for us here.
In regards to the article, who the hell hugs a co-worker they just met? I've worked with people for years and never hugged them. Why the need to hug a co-worker?
