I'm not painting with any brush, I can just count. LOL.
During the World Cup, I read up a fair amount on the roster to see where the girls played college soccer, how long they've been playing, etc. Going by memory there are at least five out gay players on the team including two teammates dating each other.
I said many/mostly because there may be players on the team that are not out.
ETA: Any of y'all that think Megan Rapinoe didn't have the full support of, and/or was actually speaking for, her teammates when she expressed her strong objections to Trump's performance as President are fooling yourselves.
Could you explain why the gays dislike Trump? Not sure I understand.
Hahaha, you serious, Clark?
Are you obtuse or just willfully ignorant?
Before he'd ever set foot in office, Trump chose as his VP a virulently anti-gay politician that's opposed equal status for gay marriage, advocated for conversion therapy, voted against non-discrimination in the workplace, supported same-sex marriage bans, and opposed gay and trans service members serving and potentially dying for our country in the military.
The Trump administration has denied protections for trans students in public schools, rolled back protections for trans inmates, argued that workplace civil rights legislation doesn't protect gays from discrimination in the workplace, removed employment discrimination protections in trade agreements, and generally has not been tangibly supportive of LGBTQ rights, despite the tremendous power of their platform and the opportunities for support and protection the office of President provides.
Does that clear things up for you?
