Female Russian Athletes Kiss After Winning Gold

Female Russian Athletes Kiss After Winning Gold In Possible Defiance Of Russia’s Anti-Gay Law (Video)

After winning the 4×400-meter relay at World Athletics Championships Saturday, Russian athletes Kseniya Ryzhova and Tatyana Firova shared a kiss. The gold medalists kissed again during the award ceremony, and from the video below, it appears another teammate joined in sharing a second mouth to mouth kiss.
It is still “unclear” whether the kiss was merely a sign of affection or whether the athletes were defying Russia’s ‘gay propaganda’ laws since neither of the athletes have released a statement since the kiss exchange.

On Thursday, Russian Pole vaulter Yelena Isinbayeva spoke out against allowing the promotion of gay rights, referring to a Swedish athlete who posted a picture on Instagram of her rainbow painted fingernails.
“If we allow to promote and do all this stuff on the street, we are very afraid about our nation because we consider ourselves like normal, standard people,” Isinbayeva said. “We consider ourselves, like normal, standard people, we just live boys with women, girls with boys.”
