Wow, so much projection. It's sort of weird that you would look down on a discussion about an icon in the sport. The amount of activity here is high for LR, but almost nothing compared to message boards on other sports. The truth is that she's involved in some weird interpersonal stuff and a lot of it seems contrived. Compared to Rupp or many other male athletes, I'd say she's getting off easy.
Good golly Ms. Molly, you sure like to ball.
I'm so confused by this thread. Do like 50% of the people here have autism? Has Gen Z spent so much time alone staring at screens that they don't understand "small talk" or "banter"?
Like, the dude literally put a winking emoji to make it even more obvious that it was a lighthearted, keep-the-conversation-flowing bit of banter.
Does the autistic inability to recognize facial emotions extend to emojis too? Maybe someone close to her can explain that the emoji there means she should have interpreted the intent as friendly, happy and silly, since she seems to have misunderstood and thought she was being challenged or insulted.

I didn't read this thread but that sums it up. The responses from the other pro females are telling too.... I do think her response is funny butI don't really see it as an instant unmatch. Some girls just don't like that fun flirty vibe I guess. Wouldn't think molly was so serious given her personality but who knows.
Realistically, most guys would beat her in a sprint....hell, mo farah got dusted by a bunch of random dudes
This place is a dumpster fire full of whiny little boys who are anti vaxers and trumpers. It is so disgusting to witness and Molly always makes me LOL.
This thread still chugging along at 18 pages. I think it's gonna go the distance

That's wild, he's a 1:48 guy so maybe no Usain Bolt but I'd think he'd be faster than dudes on the street. Who are the guys who beat him?

Yup did not expect such a kerfuffle when I made the original post, I thought her post was weird and unfunny but not worth like 20 pages.

Weak.
yes no class. molly will stay an incel if she keeps this up.
1.) His name isn't on it, so its not humiliating him -- provided he doesn't go around telling people its him.
2.) Its a joke rooted in sexism, and the smugness of dude's thinking female athletics is like a cute little side show. She's an Olympic medalist, one of the best in America, and his joke (that he's making to a woman he JUST met btw) is basically "but I got nuts, so those are pretty much the same right?". If you think that's cute banter then you're gross.

Do you have autism? You might based how you interpreted Molly’s response.

These little boys just do not get it.
Anyone who’s had any success in hooking up vi Tinder and Bumble can see his message was a way to initiate meeting personally so he could get a chance for the nookie. Doubt he really cared about beating her in a race. Furthermore, a small percent of guys win the majority of women on these apps. She says she might have ghosted him but who really knows the full story…
She needs to meet up with this person and race.
It’s nothing but an arrogant instagram post unless she could actually beat the person in a race.

This should be a pay per view event. Add the guy from the airplane to the field.
Have you ever heard the same joke about something you do over and over and over? It gets extremely old and frankly enraging. "Wanna race?" could not be more uncreative as a joke to tell to a pro-marathon runner
Regardless of emoji usage, it's bad small talk/banter. Dude does not get a pass for his basic-ass joke because he's "trying".

Maybe I do! I'm genuinely so confused. I can't tell who's joking and trolling and serious here. People are saying he challenged her- he obviously didn't. People are saying it was a sexist comment- it obviously wasn't. People are saying her response was funny, but what's the joke "haha I pretended to take it as a serious challenge, be offended and unmatch, but I actually didn't" or something? Or is it like a standup comic making jokes about their own weirdness and neuroses, where we're supposed to be kind of laughing at her but also with her since she knows the reaction was weird? I would honestly be curious to hear you explain how you've interpreted this whole exchange.

You get it.
A lot of the women on here are angry. There are a few guys who act like jerks, so their points are understandable.
I'm surprised Molly, with all of her success, isn't happily married yet. Her hard work and fame should have made it easier for her to find a man by now.
It reminds me of a very tall friend of mine. Everywhere he goes people ask him the same dumb questions about his height, shoe size, he must be really good at basketball (he hates basketball) etc... This is that same sort of thing. Women athletes being treated like their accomplishments are sub par, or comparable to a youth athlete. I mean even in this thread thats what lots of people are doing. Maybe you dont consider that sexist, but when tons of women are telling you it is, yeah you may have autism dude.
Women: ‘Treat me like one of the guys!’
Also Women: ‘Preface everything with Yassss Queen’
