Save Women's Sports is specifically about TiMs in women's athletics. With the Olympics coming up (and in general, for that matter) we really need a space to talk about sports -whether they specifically involve women or not.
It can be really hard to be a woman on sports message boards and so having a place here where sports fan women can talk about anything in the realm of athletics seems highly necessary.
By this, I mean NBA/NHL/MLS/MLB/NFL etc. should all be fair game and encouraged to discuss. There are passionate women's sports fans of the men's leagues and we often get shut out and shouted down and so and it makes no sense that we don't have a circle for it here.
I suppose there also probably should be an additional circle for women's active recreation specifically -where we can talk about our experiences as women in adult athletics. I think there are a lot of former Roller Derby players that would loooove to sound out off, and I'd love to read their experiences, personally.
Girl Jocks on Ovarit, STAND UP!! Let's go.
Gaslighting doesn't usually go from 0-100 in a week. It's a slow process that escalates, like the frog in a pot of boiling water. It's often really, really hard to see. The good thing is that you've seen it and now you know what it's like and hopefully you can avoid men like this in the future. Take care of yourself.
Thanks. I feel like shit lol. At least I'm mad now and don't have to pine over him because it wasn't real.
Please don't beat yourself up over this. It's so easy to fall for this crap. Abusive, manipulative men are so good at what they do. Chalk it up as a lesson learned so you never have to experience this again.
