World Cup Semi-Final 2015, i#Montreal pic ⁦@rerutled⁩
World Cup 2019 kicks off in 30 minutes!
#FWWC
#FRAKOR about kicksoff for FIFA 8th Women’s World. I’ll be tweeting matches & sharing reax. #France, the host, considered a strong contender. In this group also are #Nigeria and #Norway. Big shout out to my sisters from Naija, the Super Falcons, one of 3 African teams in #FWWC
Saw #FRA play in the quarter final in 2015 World Cup - they look stronger this time around, buoyed I’m sure by home crowd. #FRAKOR

Oh South Africa! This is turning upside down. A full match, hey?! Spain has worked to get back into this game but I really do want #BanyanaBanyana to score again. #ESPRSA #FIFAWWC
So much that has worked to South African team’s advantage is also what has led to them conceding two penalties and a player sent off. #FIFAWWC #ESPRSA
And another goal for Spain. #ESPRSA #FIFAWWC

Fucking hell every time I see commercials with little girls watching women play football and getting all inspired, I am fighting those fucking tears. Stop doing that to me! Stop it!
Remember - this is just the 8th FIFA women’s World Cup. First one was 1991. I just saw one of the South Korean players say in an interview that when she was growing up, there was no World Cup for women. Definitely not when I was growing. So, yeah. Those fucking tears #FWWC
I rarely share ads but if you want to send me any particularly heart-mushing ones of girls and football, I’ll go to my quiet corner and watch and happily cry. #FWWC

So many white male editors in US media go out of their way to remind us they are gatekeepers of patriarchy - whether it’s in who they hire/don’t hire, who they publish/don’t publish, and the predators they often protect and enable.
And then we spend days raging on social media, jumping through misogynist hoops trying to prove them wrong e.g. when I read that Goldberg comment I was like fuck you I’ve written 2 books, total word count 140k words. The simpler version is just fuck you.

Trump’s WORLDWIDE Effect on the Global Reproductive Rights of Women

Trump and his conservative Christian-centric administration are using positions of authority to impose religious policies on long-established reproductive rights that put women around the world at risk.
Background

Ronald Reagan signed the Mexico City Policy in 1984. This sweeping mandate against reproductive freedom around the globe denied,

“US federal funds to any organisation involved in providing abortion services overseas or counselling women about them.”
Though revoked by every Democrat and reinstated by every Republican
since, Trump has taken up the cause with renewed vigor.

Every time the global gag has been reimposed by a Republican president, rates of back street and self-administered abortions have increased.

#FRABEL thoughts: This #WorldCup is a gift that keeps on giving. This semi-final matchup lived up to its potential, with 22 stars producing excellence all over the pitch. Watching Mbappe play this well on the biggest stage is inspiring and he's younger than me...
Just about every player showed up today for both teams. Do not fault Lukaku, he has been great all tournament, and arguably the best striker during this world cup. Deschamps drew up a game plan to cancel out Lukaku's presence with two world class centerbacks, Varane and Umtiti.
Not to mention, Kante & Pogba were phenomenal in the midfield, blocking & intercepting key entry passes from De Bruyne/others through the middle for Lukaku. Very tough task for Romelu, give full credit to the french partnership of Varane & Umtiti rather than quickly bashing him.
