See... with Heated Riverly there was nothing new to see there! And that this story is real makes it all the better!!! And the lesbians have the balls to go public with it!!!!!!!! Or should that have read the pucks to go with it?
On a side note, I am hoping countries cream us in most categories. A terrible thing to say, but you know it would piss off trump. And that would make me feel better. LOL!
Speaking of hockey, I love that "Heated Rivalry" has put a new spotlight on the relative lack of lesbian love stories in media. Second-class citizenship in their own community, to be sure. A great article about it in Salon: Lesbians see something in "Heated Rivalry" that TV still won’t give them - Salon.com https://share.google/iPVbgfxkD4rAw5dSy
@ Cleora Borealis -- That's very true. Women's experience and stories are generally devalued compared to men's. Especially if there are no men involved in the story at all.
The absolute best news I'll read all day. And let me reveal the thorn that's been in my side for decades. The passage that said, "They remain deeply involved in mentoring the next generation of players." Teaching that generation to become accomplished hockey players, NOT teaching them to become lesbians, as so many despicable humans imagine when they see gay couples with adopted children or children that they have carried.
You can't teach a child to be a boy or a girl. They will be one or the other, but not necessarily as they appear. Any sane person knows that fact of nature, but therein lies the rub. Sanity is a rare commodity in too much of the US now.
I love their love story so much! Definitely a Heated Rivalry precursor. In other skating lesbians Olympic news, Hillary Knight, captain of the US Women's Hockey team and Brittany Bowe, medal winning Olympic speed skater, got engaged at the Milan Cortina Olympics. Love wins!
I'm glad young women today are free to be openly LGBTQ and able to openly start families. I was 60 years old before I could say lesbian. I was 40 before I could say gay.
just shows that news is also good!❤️
ReplyDelete...may the best team win!

The secrecy, though. That must have been brutal.

Clitzpah? OMG woman, that's a terrible pun:)
ReplyDeleteI didn't know about this couple and I'm happy they found each other. I'm glad the world is changing.
Real life and love.
ReplyDeleteThat's a great hockey story. What great women.

ReplyDeleteI agree: GO CANADA!
I LOVE this! What a beautiful couple and what a beautiful family they've made.
