The controversy over Luis Rubiales’ kiss to soccer player Jenni Hermoso after the victory of the Spanish women’s soccer team in the final of the World Cup in Australia continues to give a lot of talk to this day.
The official complaint of the elite soccer player has put an end to the vague discourse of many of those who criticized her and has put the issue of consent on the table, something fundamental and basic in the social relationships we have.
Since the controversy broke out and Rubiales held the press conference in which he assured that he did not regret anything because he had expressly asked Hermoso for permission and she had accepted with a ”voucher” (information that she denied a few minutes later ), thousands of Internet users are debating and reflecting on different social dynamics, abuses of power, the world of football, etc.
Due to this atmosphere of social tension and education and awareness on the subject, the gesture that Susanna Griso had with Alberto Nuñez Feijóo yesterday in Espejo Público enraged thousands of people in our country, who did not hesitate to criticize the attitude of the presenter of Antena 3 on platforms such as Instagram or X, formerly known as Twitter.
The controversy arose after the host of the Atresmedia magazine greeted Feijóo. The politician, who was already seated, responded that she was very well while she stood up and received two kisses from Griso.
After this greeting, the communicator remained thoughtful and expressed with some sarcasm that she did not know if she had been correct in greeting her that way, a clear reference to what happened between Rubiales and the soccer player. “It was you,” Feijóo responded, playing along, to which the presenter replied with a laugh that “that’s true.”
The fact of making a joke in reference to such a serious topic that has turned the country upside down has not been liked at all by thousands of viewers of the program, who have criticized the attitude of the protagonists of the video through social networks.
”Susanna Griso flaunting her stupidity, in case it wasn’t clear”, ”They haven’t understood anything”, ”This thing about Griso and Feijóo is a frivolization of abuse. Something that many will see, reproduce and normalize. Pretty ugly and serious” or ”Never let any of them experience that someone has touched or kissed them without permission, much less a superior. Let’s see if they laugh so much” are some of the comments that can be read on the Internet.
