Hey, here's a question - why couldn't Bruce Jenner play for the women's team?

How about the olympics? I bet he could take the gold in some of the field events like shot put, discus and javelin.

And I was thinking Hoffman’s Tootsie ...

I think she looks like a young Brian Wilson...which is too bad, since she’s female...

I don’t get the, “I am going to be a lesbian and find a woman who looks just like a man” thing.

It could be that there's still a strong attraction to the masculine underneath a strong fear and revulsion to men. They know what they want, but can't deal with the usual packaging.

And on the other side it may be a confusion between being and having or wanting to be or wanting to be with a woman. It's the same confusion or blurring of the lines that Jenner feels in regards to women and femininity. He feels in some way so attracted to the womanly that he doesn't know in what way he wants to possess it, by being a woman or by being with a woman.

Manly lesbian / womanly lesbian pairings may not account for a majority of lesbian couples, though. A lot of lesbian couples (like gay male couples now) basically look alike.

FWIW, every time a picture like this gets posted the shock and disapproval are a little weaker, so the effect of posting pictures like this may not be what's intended.

From that photo; it’s easy to see who would get the worst of the fight if they ever get into it. So many of these lesbians take male hormones to try to BE men - but, they’re fake men - and they know it. Like Bruce Jenner is not a woman; no matter how many female hormones he takes. - What an exercise in futility either way they go! Jenner does have the advantage of not ever having been pregnant, so he’s in shape - I guess.

If lesbians love woman...Why do lesbians want a woman that looks like a man?

Jenner is perplexing because he clearly likes a lot of, what I would consider, manly things, says he is not attracted to men, etc. I just saw a recent picture of him tearing it up on a dirt bike. Not that women can’t ride dirt bikes or do manly things—but you get my point.

And the pendulum will swing with a vengeance fueled in part by the gag reflex. This is a closeted life style at best imho.

Next time you hear someone carping about the disparity in revenue and viewership of women’s sports compared to men’s.....this is the reason why.

I always called the WWC the Feminist Cup.

And why are these gals called "heroes" when in fact they are "heroines"???

(who didn't watch one second of the WWC except for stumbling across a few seconds of highlights of one of the U.S. games during the group round)

Another reason (for some) to dislike Tricky Dick, though it's never mentioned: You can't spell "Nixon" without "[Title] IX". IYKWIM.

Dammit, and I was getting sweet on Ali Krieger for some unknown reason. Figures... She likes sushi instead of beef.

She kissed her ... wife? Wait a second ... are these two .... lezbeeons?
I like ladies softball and will keep watching, until they start making out.

“But who really gives a damn about women’s soccer? “

The 2015 FIFA Women’s World Cup Final drew a record 26.7 million viewers, greater than final games of the 2014 World Series or the 2015 NBA Finals

“And half the team is lesbian.”

There are 23 players on the National Team. 3 are lesbian.
That’s not quite “half”
