A video circulating online falsely claims that Brazilian President Lula da Silva stated “women like being touched from a young age.” The claim has been debunked by Fast Check, which labeled the content as false. Da Silva’s original statement concerned healthcare and preventative medical checks. He explained that women are accustomed to physical examinations, like breast exams, from a young age, a reality men are not familiar with. He urged men to overcome potential discomfort with these examinations to prioritize their health. The video was deliberately misconstrued to distort the President's message regarding preventative health measures for all genders in Brazil. The clarification aims to combat the spread of misinformation surrounding his comments.
