To add on that, it wasn’t just her, but another trans athlete then took that other top spot while competing. While the article does mock a lot the fact that the girl who made the complaint came in sixth in the race, it does ignore the girls who came in 3rd and 4th. It is true that those girls did not complain, at…

I’m so torn on this article. At the same time, I’m deeply sympathetic towards Andraya about her struggles and the abuse she had to face. She is a person who should be allowed to live her life without being the focus of such mean spirited persecution. However, at the same time, I already knew from past experience on…

This is the first article about Andraya Yearwood to mention that she actually did start transition therapy in high school. It actually makes a big difference. In states that require transgender athletes to prove they have transitioned or are transitioning, that would meet the requirement, and Yearwood would’ve been…

In a more sane world, everyone would just use the NCAA’s testosterone policy, and then be open to monitoring outcomes over the course of years or even decades as we continue to accrue more observations of trans athletes. This is a topic where I don’t really care about people’s opinions right now. I think the…

Not to mention, the man that saw to her industry-wide near-total ban was Les Moonves, who was ousted by CBS following sexual misconduct allegations.

The thing about apologies from past abusers is that they are usually for the abuser. The abuser went to therapy and realized they did something wrong, the abuser feels bad and reaches out to the person they victimized. What in that scenario is about the victim? What if the victim doesn’t desire an apology and contact…

I don’t think comparing a short basketball player to a tall one is the same as comparing sprinters.

I 100% believe these girls who were born as boys identify as female and are trans.

I hear you have an opening...

He’s fine and he’s smart as hell. His gorgeous face and his legal resume speak for themselves. There is no question he’s capable of both!

Could Avenatti get it? My friend and I were having a whole debate about whether he’s cute because he’s cute or because he’s giving 45 a hard time.

Avenatti appears to be the perfect foil for trump.

Same. With all the aged bullshitters that are stinking up Congress right now, it does my wizened heart good to see a little glimpse of the future. You go, Mighty Duckling!

I was already hyped enough to know that she made history. Then I got to the bit about the wee baby blazer and saw the little one sleeping all snug against her mama and... Now I’m a ball of emotion.

I think she’s just going back for votes. Voting margins are so thin that every vote counts.

Senator Duckworth looks so happy and that baby is so tiny and now I’m crying

Diaper issues were resolved with Senator Vitter several years ago.

This is the absolute best. The only thing that made me chuckle a bit is the outfit she picked out for the baby. I remember doing that a few times when my kids were newborns only to have the special outfit I was excited about get pooped on and quickly replaced with whatever else was handy.

“...it did not go entirely smoothly for the two months she privately took questions about the idea and its potential consequences — diaper changes, fussing and notably, nursing.”
