Yes, it is… Like most people, you are confusing assault with battery. Sexual assault is any nonconsensual sexual contact(meeting/encounter). Sexual battery or aggravated sexual assault is sexual assault with the use or threat of force.
An alternate perspective: he had a peeper let herself into his house, then accuse him of being naked in his own home.
From her perspective, she obviously believes it was an intentional assault. On the other side of the same coin, it’s entirely possible that she just strolled into some dude’s house when he wasn’t expecting it. And if that’s the case, he was the one who was assaulted. He was out of public view, and being naked in the privacy of your own home isn’t a crime by itself. By her own admission, she entered his house.
My point is simply that we can’t know what happened, because none of us were there. So to simply open by stating that she was assaulted is inherently biased. If he intentionally set it up for his own gratification, he assaulted her. I’m not arguing against that. But if he genuinely wasn’t expecting someone to let themselves into his house, (because honestly, why would anyone think that’s okay to do?) then he’s actually the victim here.
And the actual “what happened” part is something for lawyers to argue over in court. If he had a note saying to let herself in, and the front door was standing wide open, it’s a pretty open and shut case against him. Still a monumentally stupid move on the driver’s part, (because seriously, why would you ever enter someone’s home while making a delivery?) but it would obviously be something that he orchestrated. But again, that’s for the lawyers to argue about, because there could be confounding factors. After all, there are plenty of perfectly valid (and perfectly legal) reasons for someone to be naked in the privacy of their own home.
What if there was no note to let yourself in, and he just had the door open because he was airing out the house on a nice day? Maybe he expected the driver to leave his food on the porch. Maybe he didn’t have his phone on him (because he was naked and had no pockets) and therefore didn’t feel the notification that the driver was on their way. Those are just a few quick what-ifs off the top of my head, and any of them could be possible. And what if, after any of those scenarios, the dude reported the driver for walking in on him? We don’t know why she was banned, but from DoorDash’s perspective it could be acting on a report that the driver essentially broke into someone’s home. We don’t have enough info to say either way.
DoorDash should at least allow her to access her earnings. That part is shitty, and saying “but she signed a contract saying they can withhold her earnings” is (at best) an extremely shitty excuse.

That’s an idiotic take considering he ordered a service where someone has to meet with you… Especially considering that all of these services tell you exactly when and where the person is. Meaning he initiated a contact.

We’re not in adjudicating a court case, we’re just interpreting someone’s accounts. If we are assuming that they are being honest, then what they described was a sexual assault.
Besides that, I wasn’t commenting we there the story was accurate . I was commenting on the misconception the person had that sexual assault was to be physical in nature.
Again… Why are we falling over ourselves to defend this guy?
But if he genuinely wasn’t expecting someone to let themselves into his house, (because honestly, why would anyone think that’s okay to do?) then he’s actually the victim here.
Again, pretty difficult to argue that case considering that he ordered a service where a person has to come to your house and have a face to face interaction. Do you often get undressed with your front door open?
Still a monumentally stupid move on the driver’s part, (because seriously, why would you ever enter someone’s home while making a delivery?)

Again we are blaming the victim here.
