Just when you think you’ve heard it all, loony leftist feminists start this. Apparently, a statue of the famous World War II Sailor/Woman victory kiss is now sexual assault or something. That’s right. Left wing Democrat liberal feminists claim a statue placed near Pegasus Bridge in Northern France to mark the 70th anniversary of D-Day is sexual assault. The sailor kissing the woman was to celebrate V-J Day in New York City on August 14, 1945. Along with so called American feminists, Frenchy frog feminists are joining the ‘sexual assault’ whining.

But the French feminist group Osez Le Féminisme has claimed that what the statue actually portrays is the sexual assault of a woman who did not give verbal consent before being kissed, and the group is petitioning to have it removed immediately.
Alfred Eisenstaedt, who took the original photograph, has said that George Mendonsa, the sailor depicted in the image, had been haphazardly kissing any woman who came close to him, without taking the time to explicitly ask for verbal consent.
Osez Le Féminisme maintains that the statue is clearly nothing more than the disgusting depiction of a sexual assault in progress.
