We've seen men walk up and kiss congresswomen who were giving press conferences, kiss or grope TV reporters, all kinds of stupid behavior. We saw Luis Rubiales having the audacity to say that was a consensual kiss. A lot of men simply feel entitled to touch or kiss us when we're getting attention. In yet another example, a reporter in Spain, Isa Balado, was reporting on a store robbery when some dude walked by and grabbed her butt. What's even more awkward about this incident, though, is that the in-studio host, a guy old enough to be her dad, insists that she put the guy back on the screen and interview him about it. And she looks super uncomfortable with that. Also it's a little awkward that he uses the word "culo," "ass," instead of a milder word like "pompi," "butt." But people are outraged by the whole situation. And a politician gets involved in demanding the guy be tracked down and arrested, which does happen. But again, this is all too common, this basic, random sort of bullying.
