Don’t push the horses!

What shocks me besides the misogyny people have been throwing at Iga since Maja’s run is also how eager they seem to discard her. Imagine the best player of the decade representing your country and doing it with so much pride and care and all you have for her is contempt and disrespect. Like we’re talking about someone who went around behind the scenes at this year’s Australian Open and told everybody who would listen how joyful and proud she was that Poland finally won the United Cup. And instead of being happy that there’s now two amazing and wonderful players being so successful it’s like half the country is out to downgrade Iga and crown Maja as their new favourite thing. Idk it’s just so sad to see them being pitted against each other like this and have people use Maja’s success as a reason to shit on Iga, especially considering their shared history.

I wish I was a female tiger because then if I was talking to someone and I was getting off topic I could say “but I tigress,” and then kill and eat them because I am a tiger

I’m gonna be so fr rn, yall gotta stop acting like women’s sports only contributions/offerings are 1) that most of the athletes are queer 2) some sort of “morally pure” version of the sport. you don’t realize that you’re doing it but you’re de-valuing them to a point of queerness + morality meter. which the latter is just insane when there are POS’ amongst women’s sports

“Don’t watch the NHL, watch the PWHL! They’re actually gay!” why is that the only selling point to you
