and the bouncer was like: “living on the edge, I see”

Sunday “belongs” to the NFL. And yet yesterday, we had:
- The largest women’s basketball crowd ever
- The highest gate receipt in WNBA history
- The first-ever NWSL decision day

Women’s sports doesn’t need men’s sports to fail in order to succeed. It’s not a zero-sum game.

@ArsenalWFC how can USA folks watch tomorrow’s game?

[Colin Millar @Millar_Colin]

The behaviour of Spanish FA president Luis Rubiales here is not ok. This the highlight of a footballer's career and they are highly emotionally charged. Jenni Hermoso said on Spanish TV of his grab and lip kiss: "Eh...yeah, I did not enjoy that."

[Charlotte Clymer 🇺🇦 @cmclymer]

In a few hours, England’s women’s national football team—known affectionately as “The Lionesses”—will compete against Spain in the first World Cup Final that England has seen in six decades. No British Royals will be there.

This would never happen to the men's team.

@KellerAudPDX did the air conditioning break in the theater? 🥵

Did you guys know that 3000 minors got breast implants last year?
Compared with 200 surgeries on minors for gender transition?
Why’s there so much eagerness to stop the latter but the former is fine?
Do you see what I mean about being really selective

I made this to explain the Aaron Taylor-Johnson & Joey King cheating rumor scandal to my friends. Hope it helps!💕

Shifts in music production aesthetics can be so gradual that we don't always know how to define the sound of the moment but we can instinctively tell when something familiar suddenly feels stale, overdone, or out of fashion - def seems to be what's happening to Antonoff right now

The fact that CHESS is divided into gendered leagues should tell you something about the real history and reasons behind the gender division of sports.

Men are scared of being made to look inferior to women.
