But it shows how strong the culture of misogyny is in that organization that he feels he can brazen it out.

I’m not saying he’s right, but I don’t have audio of what happened so I just have to pick who I want to believe or admit I don’t know.
minus-squareAbolishBorderControlsNow@mastodonapp.uklinkfedilinkarrow-up3·1 year ago@bobman There seems to have been a bad culture of sexism in Spanish football with many women refusing to play. I see no reason to disbelieve her. Why should she agree to be kissed by her boss. Someone that high profile is paid a lot of money to provide good leadership. He obviously felt that he had the power to behave that way. Which is exactly the problem.
