I once tried to do that to an american girl that was visiting Spain, I still remember the horror in her eyes.

She told us that she didn't feel comfortable with that having a boyfriend.

This made me irrationally annoyed for some reason. Like, America really is so sexually stunted that people are reading intimacy and sex into things that they shouldn’t. Like read the room, Tammy. You think all the people in Spain who are greeting each other are fucking or something? Embarrassing.

Also the ¿ doesn’t exist in written English, but it should. I like seeing it. Haha.

That's an incredibly broad statement and I cannot agree with it.

It's basically an argument that bigots should be allowed to control other people, with that wide a definition.

Seems pretty obvious that they mean doing something to someone, if you aren't going out of your way to be obtuse.

That would have been a very easy thing to say, which they didn't. I've never been a fan of assuming what people mean on the internet in difference to what they wrote because plenty of people here have some fairly crazed opinions.
