    Katy Perry kissed a contestant on American Idol on the lips without his consent.
    If this was a male judge would they be sacked?

    Well if it was a male then yes they should be sacked for an unrequested sexual approach.

    Katy Perry should also be sacked but I do not think men are allowed to #metoo

      Glaze added that he did not think his views had been "appropriately communicated through the media".
      This is the root of the problem really....

      Which is kinda funny as it's the very last line of the article further exacerbating the issue. Second to last comment says.

      "I do not think I was sexually harassed by Katy Perry and I am thankful for the judges' comments and critiques. I was uncomfortable in a sense of how I have never been kissed before and was not expecting it."
      Put that at the top of page and it becomes the non story it is.

        The Corey Feldman story has been dramatized
        - although the baddies in this are (most probably white) male.

        To be fair I saw the tweets about this Katy Perry thing and a lot of comments were form women pointing out the hypocrisy. I do hope something comes of this though.

          If it was a women that said that though, the argument would be that she feels she has to say that or her career in singing would be ruined.

            I like what this chap says about virtue signalling.
            Finally, saying virtue signalling is hypocritical. It’s often used to try to show that the accuser is above virtue signalling and that their own arguments really are sincere. Of course, this is really just another example of virtue signalling!
            Down with racism. Long live miscegenation!

              At the end he also says:

              At best, virtue signalling is a pretentious way of saying 'showing off'.
              My interpretation of virtue signalling is exactly this - and goes a bit further in that it is done by people who expect some kind of approval and recognition for it in return (covert contract). It wouldn't bother me if they didn't have to do it at someone else's expense.

                  I'd have no problem if she kissed me....at least it stops her from singing!
                  Rule Number 1 - Assuming that you have a valid contract in place always try to get your poo onto your timesheet, provided that the timesheet is valid for your current contract and covers the period of time that you are billing for.

                  I preferred version 1!

                    I suppose Oral Gonorrhea would temporarily stop her singing.
