This is AMAZING news! Nobody deserves this more than her!

I look forward to the TIM seething and their pathetic attempts to trigger her with pictures of blahaj

CharliXXApril 2, 2025

once men worked in mines. fought wars. knew advanced crafts.

now they post pictures of a mass produced stuffie in an attempt to trigger a woman who literally survived a shark attack. it's honestly so tragic and embarrassing

That’s so disgusting of them, I can’t believe it.

It is so disgusting of them. Regrettably I can believe it.

snailsApril 2, 2025

it’s literally so pathetic that they joke that the shark that bit her was a blahaj that cared about “trans rights.”

i know she’s a christian but i hope she sees the issue from more of a “women’s rights” perspective than a “TIPs are against god’s will” perspective

She's a world class athlete. She sees this issue as a one of fairness in sport... for women.

This is ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC

Also FINALLY a woman in power who can protect women, rather than one who will do her level best to destroy us, or us having to hope against hope the man in power has enough spine to face a twitter storm

So true. It's embarrassing how often women in power make it their mission to advance males.

Unfortunately, often the only way a woman can succeed is by becoming "one of the boys" and selling the rest of us out

Im starting to agree with this point of view. I finally think I understand why ppl say that the first female President of the USA will be republican.

pennygadgetApril 2, 2025

IMO, its likely to be a Republican woman because, right now, Democrat women are weak. They have to parrot obvious lies and openly simp for TIMs. Whereas Republican women have a bit more freedom to challenge people in both parties (which makes them look stronger).

And just look at what they did to Kamala Harris. They set her up to fail every step of the way. It almost feels intentional

At this point I wouldn’t be surprised if the first ‘woman’ president were a TIM.

rkinApril 2, 2025

I've responded positively to male acceptance before. It took decades before I could even challenge it because I was completely blind to the fact that I'd get high on that approval because I subconsciously acknowledged they were they authority, you know? I was trained so hard to appeal to authority, period, which fucked with me hard in a patriarchal system and made me one of the NLOG. Honestly, I think most women probably go through a phase of it in some component in their lives. It's so hard not to because it's so dominant in so many aspects of our social structures. It sucks that it's often the only way to succeed.

Yay!! What a queen. I know next to nothing about surfing but I watched her biopic several years ago. Such an inspiration then and even more of an inspiration now that she’s such a champion for women’s rights in sports.

JoediApril 2, 2025

An actual “stunning and brave” woman.

Wonderful news. Congratulations to Bethany.

And congratulations to all the women surfers who won't be mistreated now Bethany is CEO.

FemmeEtalApril 2, 2025(Edited April 2, 2025)

YES!!! This is SUCH a win for her and the sports debate!!

shakeitoffApril 2, 2025

Congratulations to Bethany for yet another achievement! Can't believe she survived that shark attack and went straight back to learning to surf with one arm. She is so incredibly strong and resilient. May she use her new position to protect women.

GrayApril 2, 2025

Wow, that’s awesome! 🥰 i always found her story inspiring!

SuddenlyRamenApril 2, 2025
