00:03O que é a foto de Itali's Foreign Minister António Tajani
00:07em um miniskirt que vai virar?
00:09Não, ele não se tornou um fashão de fashão overnight.
00:13Os filmes são realmente AI-generados,
00:15e os italianos estão compartilhando com a controversial statement que ele fez.
00:19Para entender a joke, nós precisamos voltar a algo que Tajani disse
00:22em um evento de um evento em Roma no 18 de setembro.
00:26Quando arguing that voters should choose a reliable party
00:29rather than one that might seem more appealing,
00:32Tajani compared this with advising his son on what type of woman to marry.
00:37In the metaphor, he said that one woman might be attractive but unreliable,
00:41while another could be less conspicuous but more dependable.
00:45He then suggested a more serious woman might wear a longer skirt.
00:49The comment has gone viral on social media,
00:52where women in Italy have turned Tajani into a meme,
00:55commenting that the length of a woman's skirt does not determine her loyalty.
01:00It's also sparked wrath from Italy's opposition parties.
01:03Former Italian Prime Minister Matteo Renzi shared two of the pictures,
01:07saying that Tajani had become more of a meme than a minister.
01:11And here, senators from several opposition parties
01:14posted a picture of themselves in skirts,
01:16in an act of protest one described as being about women's freedom
01:20to dress without men judging them.
01:22Tajani even earned a rebuke from the Catholic Church.
01:25Giuseppe Batturi, head of the Italian Bishops' Conference,
01:28said that every word directed at a woman
01:31must be filled with respect and admiration.
01:34Italy's Prime Minister Giorgio Malone said that the comment came out badly
01:38and warned people not to blow it out of proportion.
01:41And as for Tajani, he's since apologised,
01:44saying he never intended to offend women.
01:47Anyway, come back.
01:50We'll get to the point another time.
01:51Let's wrap it up until a little time.
01:51Thank you, Ben.
