Eh, out of line yes, but I think it's hard to call it sexual assault when she way laughing about it, and even did such a statement later on:

It was a totally spontaneous mutual gesture due to the immense joy of winning a World Cup, Hermoso said in the federations statement. The president and I have a great relationship, his behavior with all of us has been excellent and it was a natural gesture of affection and gratitude.

Have you been paying attention to the RFEF and womens soccer at all? Heck have you been paying attention to the RFEF and soccer? Their have been massive tensions between the woman's team and the RFEF for a couple months and it's a real possibility that Hermoso doesn't want to put herself in the crossfire.

That's the scandal I'm talking about.

Like, nearly half of the team quit because of that. How is this situation supposed to give Rubiales even more influence over Hermoso?

It's the RFEF that was under pressure, not the player. Especially not since they just won the world cup.

It's her business if she was okay with it, but it's creepy for guys to just take liberties like this. Reminds me of Adrian Brody just planting one on Halle Berry without her permission.

And she talks about what a WTF moment that was for her and bitches be laughin' at her and sayin' that's awesome.

Nope. This is sexual assault and it really doesn't matter what she says after the fact.

Being (allegedly) cool with sexual assault later on doesn't make it not sexual assault

Did she? That was from a later statement released by the Spanish soccer federation on her behalf.

On video, however, she said she didn't like it.

In an Instagram video in the dressing room after the incident, the players screamed and laughed while watching the kiss being replayed on a phone.

Hermoso can be seen laughing and shouting, But I didnt like it! Asked by other players what she was doing, she shouted, Look at me, look at me, intimating she couldnt do much about it.

The Spanish soccer federation released a statement late Sunday, attributed to Hermoso, to try to settle the controversy.

It was a totally spontaneous mutual gesture due to the immense joy of winning a World Cup, Hermoso said in the federations statement. The president and I have a great relationship, his behavior with all of us has been excellent and it was a natural gesture of affection and gratitude.

Sexual assault is different in that consent is a factor.

Food isnt consenting to anything.

I dont have an opinion on the event, but just wanted to point out your analogy doesnt work well.

Ok, it sounds like it's not really from her, then. Sounds like they just wanna put words in her mouth to try to sweep all of this under the rug.

Congratulate your female co-worker with a non-consensual kiss on the lips and report back with your results

"b-b-but HR is too sensitive and will come after me"

"The world sucks these days because you can't assault women" is definitely a take. And it belongs in the past.

Its a little more nuanced than youre implying.

Again, Im not taking a stance on this. I dunno the relationship between the two nor do I know what they usually do from a norm perspective.

But as an example, a dude usually doesnt get consent to smack his girls ass. That doesnt mean sexual assault was committed.

The lady saying it was fine afterwards is also not sufficient given the dynamic between the two.

Well they are objectively wrong if they wouldn't get you booted to the unemployment line.

I also sense some sexism the way you imply I cry more than women you know.
