28 days ago“those who played with me know that I do not condone being gay for women in rugby.”
I’ve never been to Fiji…
But I can’t imagine making it to a national women’s team and still being bigoted against lesbians. Its not exactly a rare thing to run across.
Like, at least in America, it’s incredibly common for LGBT to play rugby. Hell, we had a gay pornstar on my men’s college team for a while, we gave him as much shit as anyone else on the team, but rugby culture has always been incredibly accepting.
Doesn’t matter who you are, if you’re dumb enough to join the team, you’re a part of the team.
I occasionally show up to a college alumni game and shit has changed so much.
Like, the drinking culture was out of control, but socials aren’t even really a thing anymore.
Literally the only reason I joined a team back in the day was for the parties. Good on the zoomers for not drinking as much, but it’s not like the old days.
We used to run thru 5-6 kegs on weekday nights, I was 18 years old picking up kegs from a closed liquor store at like 4am because we ran out. And carrying it blocks back the party for it to be floated in 30 minutes.
