Feminism goes out the door when world War 3 hits then all the pretend feminists will ironically gladly revert to the kitchen.
But the reality is, when you become a woman, you have the easy card to life. Now be a hot woman, and your easy pass just escalated substantially. But if a man has an advantage over women, say in sports (the complaining pertains to the financial difference because there's a sick obsession with money), then there's suddenly a problem. Go figure. Now go put 20k people in attendance nightly at the wnba games then get back to me if you want change.
You've clearly never been pregnant if you think women have the easy card to life.
Nor suffered spousal abuse, nor been denied promotions or opportunities due to gender, nor been raped, nor...... and on and on.
What an unbelievably ignorant take, but considering the source not a surprise.
In reality, Caitlin Clark, Olivia Dunne, and the Cavinder sisters are simply doing what the NIL was designed to do. They are entrepreneurs capitalizing off of their work as student athletes. The problem is that Universities are now begging supporters to give money to create a pot to use for recruiting and controlling the transfer portal. High school athletes are demanding NIL money before they (if ever) prove themselves as college athletes. The NIL is supposed to allow an individual to be industrious without NCAA regulations limiting income. The scary part for our sport is will it cause schools to cut back in order to raise NIL funds for football & basketball. An example is Marquette. They are phasing out scholarships for track & swimming because "fund raising efforts need to be directed elsewhere". In other words, they need donors to give money to basketball players. As a Big East school without football, they have to win in basketball in order to be relevant.
I think the challenge here is that there are multiple things going on. The purpose of NIL is confusing. We all have different ideas about how to use NIL to benefit student-athletes. For those who are 1% beautiful and willing to give up their privacy for fame, it can work. For those who are the most brilliant football, basketball player on the top teams, it can work. But for many, they need another avenue to be compensated for their hard work as athlete-student. It would be hard for a male distance runner to make any significant income... very, very few. It would be nice if they could but I do not think many would argue on their behalf. But I think of the offensive line men at U$C or Alabama. They help their teams make >100 million a year but likely seeing little of the NIL money. Certainly not like the hot QBs or WRs. And perhaps I am wrong about U$C and Alabama - perhaps they know how to get these vital members of their team compensated. But most power 5 schools are taking advantage of 90% of their football athletes and NIL is not the answer for them. So what other steps need to be taken? Does the NCAA have it right with their $30K compensation plan? Should student-athletes be granted 45% revenue sharing of television revenue?
In principle........you are correct. That's where the whole thing is even more confusing. Schools have staff working to 'encourage' donors to give to collectives. Each major football program has added 1 or 2 staff members for this purpose. They serve as 'advisors' and thus help athletes 'market their brand'.
Hot white girls are the gold standard of desirability that’s just a fact. Men of all races fawn over blonde women it is not an exclusively a white people thing.
Could the motivation for putting up the thread, be to connect 'pretty' and 'white'? Suggesting that there is a hierarchy of 'looks' which is topped by 'white', and that looks are not subjective. R@cist agenda. Also, what sort of immature dweeb/troll would do this? I'm just asking questions.

My mistake, 'blond'. Excludes nearly everyone from Africa, Asia, South America.
