Right-wing "intellectual" Ben Shapiro has important thoughts on "sporting" and lesbians.

BEN SHAPIRO (HOST): Absolute sillineess. And bad for the country by way. When even the stuff that we take a break with, you know, sporting, is turned into this. It's pretty obnoxious.

...

We're talking about -- gay marriage is legal across the United States by Supreme Court diktat. We're talking about Megan Rapinoe is getting million dollar contracts specifically because of her sexuality, and because she's a very very good soccer player. But let's not make any mistake, if she was a very good soccer player and she were not a very outspoken lesbian, she would be getting fewer contracts because she's seen as a political figure.

...

All of this is obnoxious but we're supposed to pretend that actually she is quite charming and wonderful, that it's not obnoxious to live in the best time for women, the best time lesbians, and the best time for women's soccer in the history of the world, and in the best country in the history of the world for any of those things


In 15 US States it is legal to fire someone for being gay.

In the US, the FDA says that gay men are only allowed to donate blood if they haven't had sex in a year.

In the US, the conservatives threw a fit over a gay cartoon-mouse.

The best time for lesbians?





Also, what kind of elitist fuck calls it "sporting"?
