"Sharing a video without permission is A Crime ,". "Once Again women are being blamed. Let's not focus on The Woman who made the video, but on The Man who shared it and on those who didn't denounce it. "
"We [women] have to be coy and careful how we behave, because A Man can't see a video 'like this' and not share it. That's not naive idiocy, it's the kind of logic that blames women in order to hide sexism. "

Reacting to the criticisms, the bullfighter later, with The Message : "Seeing reality is better than seeing manipulation".
The furore adds fuel to an intense political debate in Spain about harassment and violence targeting women.
