It IS sexual abuse if the victim feels abused.

You post is quite funny. Half of it is you basically telling me I am too stupid to understand your answer. The other half is you whining that you have answered me. You know what is still missing? The answer. Since I am so stupid, how about you direct me to the post where you provided this answer. Quote it, underline it, tell me which page and which post. If you want to call me stupid, that is fine. Personal attacks on the web are kind of lost on me. It would just carry much more weight if you could just once show me where this magical answer is you claim to have provided yet does not exist anywhere.
I am going to take a wild guess and say that you resort to personal attacks and whining because that is about all you have. Seems just giving an answer would have been easier. Please do not waste another post claiming you answered me without showing me where exactly to find this answer.

No it isn't, it really isn't....
Definition of Sexual Abuse
According to Iowa law, sexual abuse is defined as a sex act committed by one person by force on another person, or against that other person's will.
A sex act occurs when one person’s genitals touch another persons mouth or genitals, or when a substitute for a person’s genitals, such as fingers or an object, touches another person’s genitals.
A sex act is against a person’s will if consent is obtained by threats of violence, if they are asleep, unconscious, or incapacitated due to drugs or alcohol or any other reason, or if the person has a disability that limits their ability to flee.
Sexual Assault: Sexual contact and touching in a nonconsensual manner that is offensive to that person. Sexual contact is any touching of the sexual or intimate parts of the body.
Child Sexual Abuse: The sexual exploitation or victimization of a child by an adult, adolescent, or older child. The difference in age and sexual knowledge between a child and an older person makes consent impossible. This includes a range of behaviors including vaginal, anal, or oral penetration, fondling, exhibitionism, prostitution, and photographing a child for pornography. The sexual activity does not have to involve force. Children are often bribed or threatened into sexual acts.
Sexual Harassment: Any unwanted sexual advances, requests for favors and other verbal or physical contact of a sexual nature that makes an individual uncomfortable or intimidated. This can include sexual assault and rape.

If I was you I would not hire anyone. With the way you got your brain thinking you would be walking around your own buisness with your eyes pointed towards the ground or up in the air. You must be scared to look anyone you employe in the eye. After all they could say that you are undressing them with your eyes.

But what you say is true. It is why, as the boss, i don't look at anyone too long and have strict rules about dress code. I don't need someone making the work place uncomfortable.

I run a business. If someone claims sexual harassment, there is a lawsuit potential. Even if it was a meaningless act on my part...if they interpret it to be sexual harassment (a form of sexual assault) there is recourse.

If that was indeed your technique you are a easy target for suckering. People who have brains try draw as least attention as possible. I know a guy that when he makes his drug runs, he dress in his three piece suit and glasses and rent as plain a car as possible. Reason being some officers, as you describe, are too busy stereotyping to see the real threat.

I'd suggest that you read your own quoted sources and please tell me how they fit into the equation of a pat down search, sorry but fail.com
Edit to make it clearer, from your source:

None of that happens in a pat down ergo no sexual assault....edit on 23/11/10 by Death_Kron because: (no reason given)
Sexual Assault: Sexual contact and touching in a nonconsensual manner that is offensive to that person. Sexual contact is any touching of the sexual or intimate parts of the body.

Great! So now normal social interaction is now a form of sexual abuse?
I like to look at people in the eye when I'm talking to them but now I can't because I could possibly be at risk of being charged with "sexually abusing" them? Get real!!!!

A little bit like if someone throws a peanut at your head? It's assault right?

And now you are going to stalk me in this thread and quote everything i say, using pedantic feats to twist meaning in to words that is just not there.
Sure, throw a peanut at me. A police officer may or may not address it, if i chose to pursue it. It is assault, yes. Just like blowing bubbles at a cop is assault.
