first LGBTQ+ woman
First bi woman.
That took me 15 seconds on Wikipedia.
This kind of journalism makes it out to be that LGBTQ+ persons are a monolith, and as if there aren't literally many different types of people in that group.
Just say Bi. Or don't consider it at all because sexuality has nothing to do with sports performance.
Though, I do understand that she is rightfully proud of her LGBTQ+ inclusion and can help inspire others.
Well, you should have taken 16 seconds. Because two words later it says that she also identifies as pansexual. And in the article quoted, she refers to herself as queer. So BQ+
Are you really arguing that "Amber Glenn becomes first Bisexual, Pansexual, and Queer woman to win U.S. Women's Figure Skating Championship" would have been a better headline?
was scared it would affect my scores or something
Is women’s figure skating a traditionally conservative sport?
It's one of the typical "force your kids to focus their entire lives on X and ruin their bodies for it"-"competitions", just evolved into the teenage-youngadult tail end of that. So it's at least very traditional, I would assume that also means it's massively conservative in the US.
Lol he's clearly a man. I hope he is happy about winning using cheats
