A record number of out LGBTQ athletes will compete in this year’s Women’s World Cup, which starts later this month in Australia and New Zealand.
At least 87 out athletes will compete this year — more than double the 38 out players who competed in the last Women’s World Cup, in 2019, according to the LGBTQ sports website Outsports.
Outsports noted that the number of teams has grown by a third, from 24 to 32, but that the jump in the number of out competitors “reflects the growth of acceptance.”
The number of out players at the Women’s World Cup also continues to rise while there were no out LGBTQ players who competed in the men’s World Cup last November. Cyd Zeigler, the founder of Outsports and a longtime LGBTQ advocate, said that’s in part because there are simply more queer women playing elite-level soccer than there are queer men doing the same.
“This is true across basketball, ice hockey and most every other sport,” Zeigler said in a statement to NBC News. “The WNBA has over 25% out women. That higher presence of out athletes naturally creates an environment where more women feel comfortable being out. As we say at Outsports, Courage Is Contagious.”

Lesbos have always loved soccer. Now they can marry eachother
I could seriously play on the team even in my 40’s.
Come in the last 15 minutes and throw my size around.
Not too many soccer chicks are weightlifters at 6’2” 215 lbs of muscle.
I play volleyball, so I can jump for headers.
Now I need to think of my girl name…
Have never watched WWC soccer. This news will not entice me to do so in the future.
I can watch women’s tennis and volleyball, that’s it.
Lesbians, not trannies.
But I still wouldn’t cross the room to watch them.
It is a mockery of women. Women haters.
Gymnastics too.
How far modern feminism has fallen...
Whichever team has the most trannies wins.
They’re impressive, but I don’t like watching girls under 18.
Just seems creepy.
Not diverse enough. Need some furries, some trannies, and even a few heterosexuals to balance things out.
As we say in Normalworld, you're sick.
Then I watched Real Madrid vs Bayern München (men's) last night and, wow, what a difference.
And,,,,that is why I dont bother watching.
Wow ...twice the lesbians!
Lots of cases of turf tongue soon to be reported.
The only sport I watch is Golf
No stats... No focus on VIPs, no focus on gains in attendance. The queers once again are in the spotlight... Therefore, I have ZERO interest in the sport...
