I do not know if Jesus said that, but Christianity has been taken over by rapist men.

Victim blaming much, asshole?

Actually the separate points have been recognized by just about everyone everywhere.

Are you a man or a woman? Most woman recognize it for what it is, but men continue to give the benefit of doubt. I do not know if most men are MALICIOUS but they certainly are OBLIVIOUS.

I have made my teen daughter and son watch this and talked about it.

Woman. Also I should say this, I don’t think it was an intentional groping but inappropriate, yes. A few weeks ago I went to hug my brother in law and accidentally patted his bottom in the process. I was mortified. It was inappropriate but not intentional.

From the photo alone, I could see how one could come to the conclusion. He’s tall, she’s short, maybe his fingers landed wrong. On the video you can see his fingers moving and exploring, and him pulling her back when she pulls away.

No way he didn't know he was grabbing on her underwire of her bra. He mentions having a daughter, he must have been married, the guy knows his way around a woman's body. That's not a mistake.

Women have front boobs and side boobs?

Has any woman not had this happen? Sorry if that sounds like I’m excusing it. I’m actually saying we’ve all had it happen and it is just so blatant.

Poor girl. He also controlled her. He did not let her move away and instead he dug his fingers in. I hope he gets punished and shamed.

What can a girl do in this situation? I am thinking hard about this. Maybe she could have "fake sneezed" and pushed him away while stepping back. Would that have worked? She could have said "So sorry, but I have to sneeze" ...and moved away. I think celebrity women (and other women) need to practice some of these scenarios to protect themselves from pervs. If she would have removed his hand on TV without saying anything, there would have been a backlash from the internet trolls.

+1.

What can you do, about the harassment AND the joke?

That’s not the beginning of the video. At the conclusion of her performance, She hugged and embraced him first and he never let go. He should have released her.

And I agree, that dress was very inappropriate for a church service.

This is so disgusting. At that moment what can she do? It’s s funeral. I think many would say “just tell him’uhh you’re making me
Feel uncomfortable ‘“ but at the time it’s live television and it’s almost even a thought of “is this happening?!” It’s disgusting. If he wasn’t being an asshole he could have just had his arm around her shoulder. You can clearly see her trying to scoot away from him. I’m so sick of these assholes.

And yet he did. Which should show you how prevalent this is.

As I said earlier her dress was inappropriate and trashy - that remains my opinion.

But, I just viewed the video for the first time and he was groping the hell out of her. No question about it!

[Anonymous]

Omg so awkward. I feel so awful for her!!

News outlets are also trying to smooth things over by saying he touched her “side”. If we’re going with “side” then it’s “side boos”.
And sure, you’ll often see “actress larks was wearing a gown exposing major side boob”. Then again, that could be just E!
