@frida1998 honestly she is one of the only skaters telling it like it obviously is and I'm so grateful for her and the way she's using her platform and her competitive retirement to push the sport

it is literally impossible at this point to separate ice dance from sexual abuse. the whole thing is rotten.

maybe you just don't care. maybe there are too few men in your sport to start caring about what those men do. bc if you're left with only the good men there'll be very few at all. maybe there are too many women, so another one retiring due to trauma only balances things out

@ayphyd yeah it's so interesting that they're one of the only teams who does... wonder who their coach is 😅

it's such a shame ice dancers barely skate in hold anymore
