Ugh. Really off this morning and for a few minutes this was posted to news. Anyway this is a topic that has come up every so often not only with her kids but back when she was just drawing about herself. I wonder if the swinging arms is intentional given the quote about freedom ending when you make contact with another.

      I really don’t see it being a big deal if someone is 1.99m near me. Im going to go out on a limb but I think the number may be different for each individual.

        Do me a favor and round up to 2.5, cause you seem like the kind of person who wouldn’t respect the 2 anyway.

          Its hard having what should be a concise conversation when its with various peanut gallery remarks. If you have been reading the whole chain, the point I have been trying to make is its an individual thing and thus it is complicated. From the person who seems to have no personal space concepts and hugs and leans on everyone to the person who wants 2.5 meters its a wide range. Then of course it changes based on environment. Anyone taking public transit at rush hour knows they will have to deal with minimal personal space. Getting back to my first reply on it if folks just use what they think is personal space then they will basically be mean to other folks.

            It’s not complicated at all. Stretch your arms out as far as you can. That’s your personal space. No need for exact measurements, and everyone can make consessions on crowded condition. We already do so anyway.

              yeah but that definition is fine for you but not for everyone. Basically your just taking your definition and saying everyone should feel comfortable with what you feel is comfortable.

                No, I’m setting a perfectly reasonable standard that everyone should follow.
