Force or pressure, yes; though every interaction bears the risk of violence (force + bad outcome for the person on the receiving end + no consent given by that person to the violator). Since we cannot know what our actions will lead to, and do know that we have often been damaged by others and damaged others ourselves, knowingly and unknowingly, and do know that many people are brittle, the whole sphere of human interaction becomes unclear from the perspective of complete non-violence (as I defined it in my earlier posts). If I want to avoid all kinds of violence, and am not willing to take the 50/50 chance of inflicting violence by accident during human interaction (50/50 is not too far fetched of an estimation, I think), then some kind of alternative has to be considered.

The solution I proposed in my first post is, of course, very un-human-like. It negates most of what people think about when they think about being human, that is: being together with others. Though I think that there is a certain evolutionary charm to extreme deviation from the norm; as if humanity reaches a new level, or atleast branches out into different paths.
