Spanish FA President Luis Rubiales | Resigns (p 34)

[I'm With Stupid]

The way he slapped her on the arse afterwards suggests it was a way of him asserting his power.

"Men do need to recognise that [...] a pat on the butt isn't the innocuous gesture some might have thought." - The Daily Mail during Me Too.

You're the President of a National FA. Your team has just won the World Cup. A few minutes after the game ended you are so pumped up and in a state of euphoria that your emotions get the better of you, and after a player hugs you round the waist, you put your arms around her and give her a smacker. And people want to take his livelihood off him? Call me old fashioned but, Fucking Bollocks.

I disagree.

You’re president of stuff, you behave presidentially.
Would he have given Sergio Busquets a kiss on the lips if Spain had won in Qatar? I don’t think so. Do you?

The first thing the President of the Spanish FA does when Spain wins the Women’s World Cup is publicly emphasise that Jenni Hermoso is a woman - not a World Cup-winning captain.

He humiliated her, and by extension the whole team.

Wonder if there’d be such a furore if this was an attractive female kissing a male player?

i entirely agree with that but the same applies to women who need to realise they dont need to hug everyone they fucking meet.

You are comparing hugging to what this man did ? Really

You're old fashioned.

When we were at school you could play kiss chase, ping bras and what not but you can't now.

You certainly as a president can't just kiss a player full on the mouth and pretend it was consensual and what was the crotch grabbing stuff all about as well?

Two things one game.

Resign with some dignity or get sacked in shame.

She would probably get called a tart or slapper, as history proves a women who isn't flirty is fridgid and ones who are are whores BTW this isn't my opinion but is still common place thinkimg amongst many males (and some females)

She should have just kicked him in the balls. Would have been great television.

He finished his career at Hamilton Academical. I'm not sure how many women he would have had throwing themselves at him.

Do they not have slags in that part of Scotland?

Nothing but, but even those ones have standards.
