Yeah maybe. That being the case it’s a good thing you realised it’s gone without going around slapping strangers arses and expecting them to think you make a great joke.

Maybe arse slapping was a good joke back in your day. Maybe it was high brow humour and a sure sign of a sophisticated bloke.... but it ain’t the 70s anymore. So you probably need to get used to that.

Ah, that island. I thought Clinton never visited, but David Copperfield has.
I always though magicians were a bit of an odd sort.

Talk about making a mountain out of a molehill. Yes make an issue of it and embarrass him but pressing charges and ruining the guys life is completely over the top.

In this uber sensitive world that being created I can guarantee you she had transgressed a line or two in her time and I hope it comes to light to show the hypocrisy and ridiculousness that this movement has led to. If I was to press charges for every time my arse was slapped or pinched by a girl in a night club I'd have put more people in jail than Columbo. It's not the end of the world. Obviously more distressing for females than males but the shoe is on the other foot more often than not. If this was a male reporter and female runner it wouldn't see the light of day.

Read about this on George Takei's page. All his followers want the guy punished. Stranegly they've forgiven George for grabbing people by the junk.

Personal opinion is he should maybe have gotten a fine, but he's already been dragged over the coals publicly. Maybe that's enough.

Humiliating him worldwide is justice enough.

She seems like a header though so she's going all the way with this. He took her power apparently and she wants it back. Whatever that means. It's like bad plot for an episode of power rangers

It's a boot up the hole she needs.

Yeah, women shouldn't be touching your arse either. Maybe you don't mind being slapped on the arse, maybe you do mind. But if you don't see it as a big deal then that's ok, but you can't tell other people whats reasonable for them to feel.

The main thing about this case is the fact that it's on camera so there's no "woman alleges and man denys, #metoo. More #metoo nonsense".

The guy did it. Most people agree it's wrong to slap strangers arses. It's not a new development and I think there's very little room to get upset that he's being charged with doing the thing he admits he did.

Don't slap strangers arses. If you don't like having your arse slapped, feel encouraged by this case to be assertive.

God, that's interesting. What would be the benefits of a boot up the hole?

Galwayguy35 · 15-12-2019 11:44AM

The guy was an idiot and deserves a bollocking for what he did but I wonder if the sexes were reversed would the same changes be brought against the injured party?

Depends most people agree that slapping strangers arses is wrong. The women have made a big deal out of it in the last few decades and it has momentum. I think if the sexes were reversed I thing it would surprise a lot of people because a lot of people haven't heard men complain about it like women have done.

I think it would be completely reasonable to charge a woman in the same circumstance.

Alecto · 15-12-2019 11:47AM

That guy is a tool for slapping her arse and she has a right to be annoyed. But pressing charges and he's now up for sexual battery? Jesus, that's madness. I've had my arse slapped and grabbed countless times, annoying and disrespectful sure but sexual battery it isn't.

It would be the guy that would need to bring the charges.

I think this story will remind everyone, both men and women, that it is not okay to grab some one's ass.

And that can only be a good thing.

I don't recommend booting strangers up the hole BTW.

Alecto it can be incredibly upsetting for some people.

I remmber a woman that I worked with, spoke to me about her ass being groped years ago. At a work do. She was very upset about it because he went in and under as far as he could until he eas touching her vagina. That IS sexual assault. If she was upset about it years later - does that show you that it is wrong?

Totally different situation.

Sexual battery - "This crime often is defined as unwanted sexual touching of intimate body parts without consent ... Some state laws refer to this crime as criminal sexual contact (as opposed to criminal sexual penetration).

Examples of this type of sexual battery include:

- patting a person’s buttocks"

I think that there used to be a prevailing attitude in MEN of
:

"We are allowed to grab women wherever we want. "

I would like you to imagine being the smaller gender in the world, and going out and being groped and mauled by someone twice the size of you? It is very scary.

Women are not taking that **** anymore. I saw a thread on boards.ie - where a woman said that her elderly neighbour groped her bum, and she sucessfully filed sexual assault charges against him.

I am so proud thet women are getting stronger , and are standing up for themselves.

tastyt · 15-12-2019 11:56AM

It was a sleazy thing to do but jail is over the top for this.

I think for something like this most people would think it fair for him to be tied up, legs apart and the woman in question be allowed give him a full force kick in the balls.

Hed definitely know better from then on and she would feel serious satisfaction.

Job done

No it is not.

Bum and vagina are both intimate parts of a person's body

Yeah that the only good thing to come from it. I find it hard to imagine people don't know it's not ok to slap strangers. I see a lot of people saying it's not ok but its not bad - he should get a bollocking or a fine but not sexual battery. Now we all know that slapping strangers is serious. In the US it can be considered sexual battery. Probably just don't do it.

And if you have influence over anyone who thinks it's fine to slap strangers on the arse or anywhere else, tell them it's not ok anymore. You'd be doing them a favour

That is different than a slap on the arse in fairness.

I'd agree that groping a woman's vagina would constitute some sort of sexual assault.

Slapping a woman on the arse is incredibly bad behaviour and not to be condoned.

Calling it sexual battery does make it sound like a crime as serious as rape or domestic abuse and makes it sound much more aggressive than it warrants.

She thinks women have the right to go about their jobs without being harassed.

Of course they do, but it's also the case that many reporters have been shot, maimed by landmines, captured and beaten by gangs, kidnapped and tortured by terrorists, or jailed by repressive governments. James Foley, Daniel Pearl, and others have been decapitated. Ireland's own Veronica Guerin was murdered. Bulgarian journalist Viktoria Marinova was raped and murdered last year after investigating alleged fraud involving EU funds. All in the course of doing their jobs.

For this woman to be bleating that a mere slap on the ass from a marathon runner "stole her power" is an embarrassment to the many brave journalists who risk their lives daily in the course of their jobs.
