Replying to @krassenstein There are a lot of inappropriate and unwanted moments that are sexual assault. Most sexual harassment isn't sexual assault. Women have a right to bodily autonomy and shouldn't be forced to be touched regardless of how slight you think it is. You're thread is violently ignorant. 12:17 PM -31 Mar 2019

If Biden kissed this woman's head and she felt uncomfortable, Biden is in the wrong, but to compare this action to anything close to sex 305 t219 2.2K Brian Krassenstein @krassenstein Mar 31 assault is to minimize actual sex assault and the entire #metoo movement. Once again, I'm not defending Biden's actions, but I am defending his right to not be grouped into a category of disgusting individuals who think their power, strength and masculinity affords them. 147 t225 24K Brian Krassenstein @krassenstein Mar 31 the right to force themselves on a woman in a sexual way Does this mean that every man who takes a woman on a first date and ends the evening with a kiss on the cheek, should be grouped into a category of "creepy men," simply because he misread the woman's level of interest?

Brian Krassenstein @krassenstein Mar 31 Should a man who greets a woman a friendly hug and a kiss on her cheek be attacked and shamed, even if this is his standard way of greeting all women colleagues, friends, and acquaintances he meets? Brian Krassenstein @krassenstein Mar 31 If we go down this path, it will be hard to turn back? Women of course need to speak out when they feel a man acted inappropriately, but if a 73-year-old grandpa greets a woman with a kiss on her head, we also can't relegate him to a pile of garbage human beings who don't... 142 t 157 1.5K Brian Krassenstein @krassenstein Mar 31 respect women In some cultures it's completely normal to greet each other with a kiss on the cheek, and in fact they will be offended if you don't.

Joe Biden can be a wonderfully compassionate friend, and a stranger who makes some women uncomfortable with his unsolicited physical affection. All at the same time. There aren’t sides here, just a conversation he seems willing to have, so let’s have it.

Are we really pretending that Joe Biden being creepy/inappropriate with women is news? I for one am looking forward to the Creepy Uncle Joe memes throughout the campaign.

This was an incredibly difficult thing to do, but something that felt necessary. It took awhile before I found the words and the support that made me feel like this was finally a story I could tell.

Joe Biden Statement

"In my many years on the campaign trail and in public life, I have offered countless handshakes, hugs, expressions of affection, support and comfort. And not once never - did I believe I acted inappropriately. If it is suggested I did so, I will listen respectfully. But it was never my intention. I may not recall these moments the same way, and I may be surprised at what I hear. But we have arrived at an important time when women feel they can and should relate their experiences, and men should pay attention. And I will. I will also remain the strongest advocate I can be for the rights of women. I will fight to build on the work l've done in my career to end violence against women and ensure women are treated with the equality they deserve. I will continue to surround myself with trusted women advisers who challenge me to see different perspectives than my own. And I will continue to speak out on these vitally-important issues where there is much more progress to be made and crucial fights that must be waged and won."
