I think people are getting, maybe, too sensitive?

No? Consent is an important thing no matter the context. I, for one, hate physical contact that I don't explicitly request or seek. Being patted on the back out of nowhere, as insignificant as it may be to you, is a massive breach of my personal space and my consent.

It's not about being sensitive, it's about respect. Don't force people into things they don't want. Don't assume they want something, either.

Feeling entitled to touching other people makes you look so tough and mature.
