It was treated as a joke, nbd, the work of a few bad apples--as all terrorism against women is--& that failure leads here. 243571931

Reposted by Evelyn 💗Claire Willett @clairewillett.bsky.social · 13hI also like this explanation, i.e. they simply forget women’s sports exist when they don’t need them as a cudgel against trans people, because actually “it never occurred to a single one of us that a man would go to a women’s basketball game” is an even more stunning self-own 141068
Reposted by Evelyn 💗Katelyn Burns @katelynburns.com · 14hI actually don't think the Republican Senator mixed up "Hawks" and "Hawkeyes."
