Yeah, I sensed a ton of internalized misogyny in the quotes and videos in the article.

For me it’s socks. They have so many cute, cheap socks.

I remember that storyline, and what makes it worse is that Bridget and her coach end up together at the end of the series.

And some of the skaters who defended him are making supportive comments on her post with seemingly no self-awareness.

I’m automatically suspicious of any adult who goes by the name Scooter.

I’m pretty sure I’ve looked at cake with that expression.

I couldn’t figure out what that scene reminded me of until I saw this comment.

If you took out the song, the trailer could just as easily be for a horror movie.

She seemed so nice on Survivor. I was a little shocked the first time I saw her on the view.

Eunsoo Lim was staying out of the way by being close to the boards. I don’t think Mariah Bell hit her on purpose, but it wasn’t Lim’s fault either. It was just bad luck for both of them.

I would pass out halfway through (if not sooner).

See: the origins of Monopoly.

He’s clearly just talking about that hard-hitting documentary, Gone Girl.

This line of argument (“girls can hit me, but I can’t hit them back, isn’t that so unfair”) bothers me so much. Partly, because no one should hit anyone outside of self-defense and nazis. But mostly because look at any statistic about violence. Men hit women all the time. Much more often than the other way around.…

The combination of poor bone density from eating disorders and restrictive diets with the pressure of landing jumps is part of why skating injuries seem to keep increasing.

They’ve changed the scoring system a bit this year- harsher penalties for falls and bigger rewards for well done jumps. It’s one of the reasons Chen did four quads this year, compared to last year’s 6. The men at US nationals did not have a great showing, but there’s been a lot fewer falls in the international…

I always wonder about the psychological effect of sports where people peak so young. 

Bell is a much more well-rounded skater. She doesn't have a triple axel, but her spins and skating skills are better. I think a lot of that has to do with age- Liu still needs more time to work on skating skills and transitions, which is often one of the most noticeable differences between watching junior and senior…

If you’re interested, this book helped me a lot when I was dealing with vaginismus (in my case triggered by an infection):

THIS! Think about how many actresses stopped getting jobs for the simple reason that they aged. I have no problem with abusers becoming has beens.
