Hey there. In my experience topics definately do get avoided, and if I push I am given an 'it's for your own good' type explanation.
Best I can figure thats because T is uncomfortable and needs some time to think.
I figure that touch is something that can be interpreted in a variety of ways and your T may be worried about there being some confusion, or there being some confusion AFTER it happened - especially if you have been abused in the past. Sometimes it can feel ok until after and then things get all confusing because of transference etc. He is probably just trying to be cautious.
If you think he is brushing you off then you could try telling him that you think he is brushing it off and that you think it is important to discuss it.
