Lecce authorities are investigating a second video of a Lecce lecturer that in videos posted on video sharing sites is seen being fondled by a number of students.
In the first video students can be seen “touching” and “fondling” their teacher. The young teacher doesn’t bat an eyelid despite the obvious sexual abuse. The Italian students can be seen laughing and “enjoying” as one of the students fondles the teacher and her underwear.
When the first video hit YouTube and other websites, Lecce authorities immediately suspended the lecturer and investigated the matter.
However a second video has been posted on the internet, where the same teacher can be seen talking on her mobile phone. From the back a student mimes sexual acts and touches repeatedly his teacher.
Someday our society will be advanced as Europe’s.
One thing I remember from some attractive Swiss teaching assistants that we had in our German class is that they didn’t like going to certain parts of Italy because the men were so overt in their sexual advances, -so part of this I believe is cultural.
Also I don’t think it’s quite accurate to say the teacher did nothing. If you watch towards the end of the first video, there is definitely an arm reaching back to swat the offending hand away. Nevertheless, she did let a lot get by without doing a thing.
If I had to guess, I’d say this teacher was new or a substitute. She was in over her head and didn’t know how to deal with the situation.
Incidentaly, I remember a student in this same German class attempting to fondle one of the assistants boobs from behind. He did walk up behind her and made a half hearted attempt but lost his nerve/stupidity. This was years before camera phones so none of it was captured and it wasn’t nearly so blatant and continuous as this. I imagine if he’d gone through with it, he’d have gotten whacked or at least a dissaproving glare and that would have been the end of it. As I recall, the regular teacher was out of the classroom, and I don’t think that the assistant would have reported anything.
Italy is awesome!
Slutty teacher + teenage males= above no matter what country you are in.
How can we be sure that this not just a prank? A bunch of young actors messing with our need for sensationalism. Just wondering.

I’d rather have the kids filling her with semen then filling her with 35mm bullets.

That is the most most twisted comment I have read in some time. Both situations are dispicable.
Angel (#5)….
35mm?
Thirty-Five Millimeters?
That’s more than an inch….
It’s a real bear to conceal a gun that big. You usually see them in antiaircraft service on military vessels.
If you’re going to make silly suggestions, please get ’em right….

#5 – Angel, its a good slogan, but drop the “35mm” and it flows better…
Since I’m not a gun nut, I don’t know, but what is a 35mm bullet?

#7 – No… One of those situations is brilliant… Guess which one… and why…
It looks quite fake to me…
Hmmm. I’m not sure – but for some inexplicable reason the word ‘bogus’ keeps flashing through my mind… the entire scenario seems rather, shall we say – unlikely? – to put it mildly.
I’m not sure this is bogus. I mean, if in fact that regional society deems it socially acceptable for men to be overt in blatant sexual abuse, I don’t see how this is not legit. For a woman to be in a situation where this is permitted, I have many doubts that she would do much, if anything, to stop it.
Think of the situation in rape where the victim freezes until the act has passed. Is it bogus that the act of rape occurred if there was no attempt to stop it on account of the victim? If your answer to that is yes, then I guess this is 100% fake. Otherwise, I don’t see how this is dissimilar.
Something to consider:
And this is not to condone sexual abuse !!!!
Europe in general is much more tolerant of people touching each other than the touch-a-phobic USA. I found this true while in Australia; the Irish and Euro co-workers within my employer frequently patted each other on the shoulder (women would often slap each other’s rear end!). No one freaked out or threw lawsuits at each other.
However, When one of our young Aussie bucks deliberately taunted a woman with sexual slurs, he was promptly dismissed, and rightly so.
Still: Will the USA eventually become such that a man and a womans’ shaking hands will be considered sexual abuse?
“Touch-a-phobic”? In North America, despite what a few misguided cavemen might think, groping, fondling, and sexual touching without consent is still sexual assault. And it damn well better stay that way too.
Here’s the thing, she is the teacher, she’s supposed to be the authority figure; however, she is one woman amidst a group of horny boys. They clearly don’t respect her. Does anyone really believe that these boys would actually listen if she stood up and told them to stop? Not likely. What is she going to do? Suppose she stood up and slapped her student on video, she’d lose her job for sure. Instead she did nothing but push a roving hand away when he tried to go down her pants. That doesn’t look like consent to me. It’s no secret that men in Italy are notorious for being “very forward.” Anyway, she gets suspended, and what was the guys’ punishment? Nothing. They get to be famous on the Internet.
I hate the stupid comments here and on youtube that condone this. I don’t care about whatever scenarios that happen in porn films, as long as all the actors are consenting. What bugs me is that it sounds like some guys want to normalize this behaviour in real-world environments everywhere. That’s messed up. What if their wife, or girlfriend, sister, or mother found herself in that same situation?
Actually, this reminds me of that article a while back about groping in Canadian bars. It’s not acceptable behaviour unless there is consent. Men are now thinking that it may be acceptable because most women don’t know how to react and it’s just not right. I know not all men are pigs but I hate seeing this stuff promoted and encouraged.
#15 – Jill… This video is a fake.
It may very well be fake. I can’t find any information about it in the Italian newspapers.

You size queen.
Having watched it again – this time not half-asleep – I’ve gotta second OFTLO; it’s a crock, fo’ sho’.
