Daughter: What does gays mean?
Me: Well you know mum and dad love each other - two men can love each other the same way
Her: So what's 'penetrating gays'?
Me: Er... read me the whole sentence
Her: "She stared at him with a penetrating gaze"
Me: Oh
INSPIRED ✨💫✨ well done Fiona, so well deserved 🙌

I will admit I have said worse and not gotten penalized. And I’ve also been given a “soft warning” by the ump where they tell you knock it off or I will have to give you a violation. He should have at least given her that courtesy. Sad to mar a well played final that way.

When a man argues with an umpire, it’s passion.
When a woman does it, it’s a meltdown.
When a black woman does it, it’s a penalty.

(2/2) When a woman is emotional, she’s “hysterical” and she’s penalized for it. When a man does the same, he’s “outspoken” & and there are no repercussions. Thank you, @serenawilliams, for calling out this double standard. More voices are needed to do the same.

So, here's a little thread for anybody who’s feeling uncomfortable with the @Tess_Holliday Cosmo Cover. Its about health, weight, fat phobia, and weight bias. So go grab yourself a cuppa @piersmorgan and have a read - you never know, you might learn something 1/

The paradox of sport is that it’s both trivial and deeply significant.
It can be play, entertainment, and a luxury. But it’s also a celebration of what it means to be alive and to be human.

I have had more than one male colleague sincerely ask whether a certain behavior is mansplaining. Since apparently this is hard to figure out, I made one of them a chart.

It’s interesting but when I was in Kenya writing my book, I visited and stayed in many of the top training camps. The only one I couldn’t get anywhere near was the Rosa camp.
