“This player could never” “I trust so and so” read this book. READ. THIS. BOOK.

i’m not deleting my past quinn posts (except for the “I’m a lesbian and I like him” poll) but I’m not posting any new stuff. Just… genuinely really fucking disappointed.

genuinely just confused as to how one sees your mom win a gold medal. talks about that every time they talk about the olympics, even before they got to italy. talks about her with so much respect and admiration. mentions that the first person he thought of when he scored was megan keller because she did the exact same thing. and then goes to the locker room and laughs at a misogynistic joke made about them by tr*mp? does something like pucks and pages and then also goes and has a blast with p*tel in the locker room? it’s so fucking disappointing bc i feel like they’ve done stuff that shows that they know better. they’ve surprised people (positively) with stuff they’ve done, said and supported. and now we’re here somehow. like what you wear the usa jersey, drink two beers and suddenly your moral compass is nowhere to be found all of a sudden. the pendulum can not fucking swing that violently from one end to the other.

#yeah this is the thing for me #like you guys have been so vocally supportive of women…#what happened

i’m just gonna get all my thoughts out into a post because I’m gonna need some time to sit on this one.

I’m disappointed. I’m a lesbian, I’m disabled, I’m Canadian. I was just kinda getting into hockey, really found myself attached to quinn. To see someone who I was really starting to like behave the way he did is just like a blow to the chest.

Logically, I knew that getting into hockey was dangerous. It’s a notoriously conservative sport, the NHL commissioner is a slimy piece of shit, it’s NOT a safe space for people to be politically inclined (liberal). I do think that every man in that room knew that if they chose to say anything, the NHL does not have their back. Personally, I would like to see the NHL disintegrate.

I will say - I guarantee you there’s at least one closeted hockey player in that room who has never felt more unsafe in his entire life. There’s people of colour on that team - the republican social media was picking old videos of the us juniors team to suit their “sparkling white boy” narrative. I do think that down the road at least one of those men will come out and say that locker room felt so unsafe for them that they just had no choice but to exist. But do I think that will be a Hughes brother? Likely not.

I’m just sad. I live in a bubble where almost all the people I know and surround myself with are bleeding heart liberals, and the people who aren’t are unfortunately people from my incredibly conservative upbringing who I’m stuck with. I sometimes forget that men who laugh at women’s sports are real.

This just… this one blows, friends.
