If that’s a woman, then he must be into dudes.

I honestly don’t know if it’s considered appropriate or not in Spain.

Does the lady care? I can’t really tell.

She didn’t appreciate this guy grabbing her head and planting one on her lips.

I, personally, would have slapped his face after delivering a knee to the groin.

Only my husband is allowed to kiss my lips. Disrepect my husband and I will make you pay for it.

Trust me, you don’t want him to settle the tab.

“guy grabbing her head and planting one”

Very poorly executed if you ask me ...
that hand should have been much lower ...
a good squeeze of the glutius maximus would have been the better form.

Izzat Chelsea Clinton to the left in the pic?

And I notice the kissee's hand is in a hug position as opposed to pushing away.
Hard ta tell about such things from foreign countries.
But if this is the biggest of their problems.... d;^)

Lesbians don’t like to be kissed by males, even if the male transitions to female.

That’s a very estatic guy. Very emotional. Calm down people. It is called affection. If she didn’t appreciate it, tough crap, it wasn’t sexual.

JUST EXTENDS MY POINT TO MORE MEDIA. SOMEONE KISSES A PLAYER WHEN THEY WIN A BIG SOCCER MATCH. OK.

If he was kissing a male player it would be celebrated.
