I've been trying to put a tweet together explaining my love of the male dominated sports world from the perspective of a female and it's tough. This incident with the @Redskins isn't isolated. This will start coming out from so many women associated to so many teams.
I've seen so many tweets that say "this isn't breaking news, we already knew about this" ... excuse me? Shouldn't it be alarming that we knew and it STILL is not being addressed appropriately? This article isn't about the NFL season that may start soon. Grow up.
I'm pissed I can't read the whole article from @washingtonpost but all I need is the headline. Women
should
be
equals
in
all
workplaces. Period. Especially ones passionate for a male dominated environment like the Washington (enter future name here).






I've wanted to and have even tried to break into the sports world. I would be lying if I said I haven't emailed small businesses just for a shoe in. But it's days like today that scare the hell out of me knowing the women who went for it lived through these events.
News flash: I SHOULDN'T BE SCARED TO PURSUE A PASSION BECAUSE I AM A FEMALE. (Sports related, fitness related, etc etc etc etc). & I shouldn't be SORRY that I'm interested in male dominated environments. (Is it bad I think it's actually a little badass? Sorry. I'm on one today)
There's days I feel like because I'm a female I shouldn't be supporting certain teams, players, sports, etc. because so many of them are disgusting. I remember feeling sick watching Aroldis Chapman pitch in Game 7 of the WS. But yeah, I still cried tears of joy when they won.
Yeah. Aroldis & Addison. Both of you can just fuck off actually. Anyway...
I don't really know where this thread is going. All I know is I'm disappointed that this is a norm being brushed under the rug and I'm sure has been and will be. Dan Snyder is a coward along with any other owner hiding behind their status.
All I ask is that the @Redskins & any other teams that KNOW about these incidents make up for their mistakes & quit making me feel disgusting for being a female sports fan.
OH AND QUIT NORMALIZING THAT WOMEN ARE IN THE SPORTS WORLD TO BE OBJECTS. @heykayadams @minakimes @ErinAndrews @jemelehill @Kelly_Crull hey guys, we just like to go to work, wear jerseys, drink beer & cheer on our teams without being sexualized too. Let
us
