Is this a ridiculous practice or what?

I think the judge needs to lighten up. What’s wrong with a little friendly ass-slapping between grown men? Maybe the judge is in need of a little bottom play.

Yeah, that judge had a stick up her ass. It’s very common among male athletes and it has no sexual meaning.. Either a high five from the front or the butt slap from behind. It’s just passing on the message good job.

LMFAO! I’ve never minded a playful ass smack, from either gender. That being said, when a guy grabbed my boobs at a group party, I told my husband to deck him.

@WillWorkForChocolate I’m surprised you didn’t drop him first.

I don’t know how to throw a punch, unfortunately. I could have racked him, but that seemed a little excessive.

You’re also a size four (congrats), so your best shot probably isn’t really noticeable. :)

I always found this behavior hilarious since jocks are often the most homophobic people there are.

Ohhhh but your old male couch or other buddies slappin you on the ass….nahhh that’s totally normal.

Looks like the Germans haven’t softened their approach then :D
Lots of sports stars hug & even kiss in their celebrations, no reason to quell exuberant, instinctive passion, sport is big business & high stakes.

On the football field it is acceptable, but not in a respected Court Room.

The butt is a private part, so football field or not football filed, it should be no go area. Comeradery? They can go for the shoulder.

Maybe he wanted to get his name in the news.
