(110,325 posts)because of his inappropriate behavior. And you know it.
What you clearly DON'T understand is that there is a major difference between a man touching a woman on her shoulder and "resting" his hand on her THIGH. Particularly a woman who is a survivor of sexual assault.
She was uncomfortable with his action and disappointed that an author of the Violence Against Women Act didn't understand the importance of physical boundaries.

Ms. Caruso, now 22, said she chalked up the encounter at the time to how men act, and did not say anything publicly. But she said it was particularly uncomfortable because she had just shared her own story of sexual assault and had expected Mr. Biden an architect of the 1994 Violence Against Women Act to understand the importance of physical boundaries.
It doesnt even really cross your mind that such a person would dare perpetuate harm like that, she said. These are supposed to be people you can trust.
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
