Does this dude have a history of being a perv or something? I'm going against the grain here, but this seems a little bit excessive, no?
He only kissed someone on their mouth on International television during a forced interaction without their content while having the power to deny said person to play in the team again before pointing out that any critique of that action is nothing more than social assassination and he was the real victim in this. Gtfo. If he was confident enough to do this in public on TV you dont wanna know how he acts behind closed doors.
Read his statements on the article. He doubled and tripled down. Played the victim. He's a man in a position of authority who believes his own perspective is more important than sexually harassing his employees. It's unacceptable.
Sexual assault is a pretty big deal. Maybe if he immediately apologized, it would be different. I, for one, am glad people are finally drawing a line in the sand.
Can you imagine your boss kissing you on the lips? Would you ever feel comfortable at work again? Dozens of women have refused to play with him involved, we can intuit theres more going on behind the scenes as well.
Do you understand how consent works? When you violate it and do something of a sexual nature to someone that is sexual assault. It doesn't matter what he's done in the past. He sexually assaulted someone live on international television.
I certainly do. I actually watched the video after posting this. It's even less of an event than I expected it was. Calling this sexual assault is a pretty scary dilution of an otherwise serious issue.
He literally grabs her fucking head and forces her to kiss him. I guarantee if a gay man did this to you you'd flip your shit. Fucking creep.
