"The Kiss" ... woman's world cup accusations heating up

Yea, been following, and find it outrageous, even though I feel I have a limited understanding of cultural differences, which play a limited role.

 

Not surprising coming from Spain.

 

I must say that this comment, if translated correctly, shows a legal tone deafness that will help the boorish coach. I understand the point - what he did was public, and procedures must be followed, but still

Following Rubiales’ comments on Friday, the president of Spain’s High Council of Sport (CSD), Víctor Francos, said the council would look to suspend Rubiales as quickly as it could while following due process.

 

Scumbag behavior, he should step down. Despite what a certain contingent may think, it’s not okay to kiss, grab a woman’s privates etc just because you feel like it.

 

If fifa ever did the right thing on anything it would have to be a mistake. Fifa may be the only global organization more corrupt than the Olympics.

 

"It EEZ NOt possible". Hang up and Listen joke

 

That was over the top even for Spain. It is considered acceptable to hug and kiss on the cheek when you greet family and friends. It is the routine when I see family throughout Spain...

 

Agreed. Same

 

I can't wait to see that trial...

 

Not according to President #45. It's on tape.

 

Man sexually assaults woman, woman reports it, man says she was asking for it, 90% of men in society who have never heard of either person rage on social media against her.

Lather, rinse, repeat.

 

I think most guys are taking HER side.

 

My grandparents were both from Spain and they would kiss their sons on the lips - as my Dad did with me. It wasn't until I was in high school and an Anglo friend of mine asked me about it. And, my Dad kissed my sisters the same way. Never thought it was weird; but, this is a different dynamic.

She's a player. He is management.
Woman. Male.
Upset. What's the big deal?

Whether a power move or simply overexuberance the dude screwed up. I didn't read his apology; but, apparently the woman is having none of it. The sad part is it now overshadows Spain's triumph in the World Cup. It's no longer "Spain wins!" Now, it's "Machismo reigns!"

 

Guy goes too far…

 

What a shameful distraction from a huge win.

 

Rubiales resignation demanded by Spanish football leaders

 

Well, that escalated quickly
