Mexico President Claudia Sheinbaum has said she will press charges against a man who groped her during a public appearance.
Mobile phone footage of the incident on Tuesday shows Sheinbaum speaking to a group of supporters on a street near the National Palace in Mexico City. A man approaches her from behind and attempts to kiss her on the neck and place his hands on her body.
"My view is, if I don't file a complaint, what will happen to other Mexican women? If they do this to the president, what will happen to all women in our country?" Sheinbaum said at a news conference on Wednesday.
Wait, okay, so women should be aware that they could be groped or assaulted anytime they go out in public. I can totally agree; that's a sickening and sad reality we live in - and it does happen. I think more men should be aware of just how common it is, too.
But what's the point of your comments? You're saying she should have been aware, and should understand how the world works, and that is reality and whatever but it seems like your implication is that she is wrong to be pressing charges?
