Your/her narrative of equal pay has already been debunked.

I love soccer. And I'm a fan of both the women and men's teams (hell, I'd root on chess if it's a USA team). I appreciate how good a player rapinoe is. One of the best ever for women's soccer, for sure.

But I cant stand the pay narrative, as it's been debunked over and over again.

When women's soccer is as popular globally as mens, equal pay will come.

People who have different sexual orientation than you deserve every right to be accepted for who they are. Same way people of different colors, physical ability, etc. do.

Chosing her as athlete of the year for her athletic achievements (scored most points on her team to win a world championship) is legit as much as the message she brings to the world that equal representation is the path to a more balanced world. Same way Tiger and The Williams sisters brought representation of people of color to golf and tennis, or Billie Jean King as a gay woman to tennis. Or black athletes in baseball 100 years ago.

You can disagree with it. But what does it have to do with you, personally? What offense or smear does it have to you, for you to rail against this or hate it? Think about that.

When I was a kid the guys in school beat up and spit on a student for dying his hair blonde and wearing a trench coat to school because he was a David Bowie fan. WTF did the kid's fashion choices have to do with those boys in any way at all? Nothing. But just because the kid behaved outside of some normal frame of reference these guys were used to was for some reason a threat to them somehow. They beat him up.

Just accept things that have nothing to do with you and live your life.

It was a great one. They had so many world-class hotties back in the day.
Now they decided it was a good idea to put fat chicks in the swimsuit edition. They should change the title of the magazine to "We Really Don't Want You To Buy This".
