The moment, already viral on social networks, has received all kinds of reactions. In fact, the lawyer Paula Fraga comments that this situation could be a type of “sexual assault”. “The criminal type would be sexual assault. Harassment or a modality of sexual harassment is how I would define it. The terminology they have made under the type of sexual assault does not seem correct to me. Grabbing and immobilizing the face to kiss it is called sexual harassment This is what Jennifer Hermoso has suffered and that is why she shows her disagreement. There are plenty of reasons to fire Rubiales,” he wrote on Twitter.

I clarify: the criminal type would be sexual assault. Harassment or modality of sexual harassment is how I would define it. The terminological list that they have made under the type of sexual aggression does not seem correct to me.
