Has THAT kiss become a tipping point for women in Spain?
The #SeAcabo movement shows talk about sexism has moved beyond the World Cup final.
Spainβs victory in the Womenβs World Cup was overshadowed by Luis Rubiales, the head of the Spanish national football federation, kissing player Jenni Hermoso on the lips without her consent.
But now the uproar has gone beyond football. Women across the country are sharing experiences of harassment in their workplace and other spaces under one hashtag: #SeAcabo, which means βitβs overβ.
In this episode we hear from some of those women. The ΒιΆΉΤΌΕΔβs Maria Clara Montoya helps us understand why so many have had enough and discusses whether this could prompt a change in Spanish society.
This episode contains discussion about sexual assault and harassment. Details of organisations offering information and support with these issues are available at bbc.co.uk/actionline.
