Health – ‘Let’s say you’re on a bus in NYC and it’s not that crowded and s/o who is coughing all over the place decides to sit next to you. Let’s say this person doesn’t have TB, just a virus, so you’re life isn’t in danger. But they are coughing and not doing a good job in covering it up. Do you think it’s wrong to ask this person to sit in the back -not near anyone? Do you think it’s wrong if this person was asked and they refused? The same thing here -maybe this women has no clue what an Aveira is, but they know touching a woman is against this person’s religion. So why wouldn’t they want to accomodate him? It’s only because of their hatred towards Frum people and there lack of respect towards the Jewish religion. If anybody would be honest -they would see this is no different than s/o who is coughing away!’
That’s a poor comparison. The woman who’s coughing believes that she is doing you harm so she will move. The one who is touching you does not believe she is doing you harm so why would she move?
