(37,648 posts)That's ridiculous. The man lives in front of cameras, loves his fans, is a friendly guy who used to be an entertainer & is a politcal satirist, and yet there is not one picture among the tens of thousands of photos of him, with him groping anyone. Even YOUR picture doesn't show the hand on waist.
That such a claim lends any credibility to any wrongdoing is nonsensical. You reported this as a "me, too" incident. I saw you on tv talking about it in that way...before everyone laughed at the description of the so-called harassment.
When you ask someone to come in close for a selfie, they are probably going to touch you, and you them. Maybe not, but probably. If you have restrictions (other than the obvious sexual parts of your body), then you need to state that, when you ask them for the pic. I would have no problem with someone's hand on my waist (except for noticing my mid-section chunkiness). It's a natural place to put one's hand for a close pic..either that or the shoulders (which is very impersonal).
When my uncles would have pics of me and them taken, they frequently put their hands on my waist or somewhere thereabouts. It's a natural, normal thing to do.
But on tv you were saying, "I wouldn't even let my husband touch me THERE!" Ridiculous.
A man's career has been seriously damaged, if not ruined. And the Dems have lost a real champion for women's rights, foreign interference in our government, benefits for the disadvantaged, and such...for no good reason. While the same people who railroaded him haven't had the guts to call for the resignation of those who HAVE committed sexual or financial violations.
