Hugging a woman does not mean you have permission to touch her outside the bounds of the hug...

56. Of course this actually applies to everyone and not just men hugging women...

I've been felt up many times by women I didn't really know, and it always just made me feel uncomfortable. A few times it's been by a woman who is in a relationship with a male friend, which makes it really bad. One in particular seems to just get "handsy" when she is drunk AND my friend is not around. I haven't had the courage to say anything to him about it, but I digress...

Of course it should be obvious to everyone that when men do it to women it is much more than just creepy or awkward, it can be frightening. As bad as these sudden grab-asses have been (I'm pretty sensitive and don't get it on with many people...) they are not frightening to me, because I am so much more physically powerful than the ones molesting me, and I just push them away and it's over.

So, in that sense I can see it as a feminist issue. It also probably happens more often to women too, because we are probably more likely feel entitled.

Still, one could also argue the headline is a tad sexist, because it makes at least as much sense to write "When one person hugs another that is not an invitation to grope or kiss."
