i was going to say « not to be a hater » but actually i love to be a hater. nolan patrick (?) misogyny burner account twitter discourse is really making me go huh. some of yall don’t know jack about hockey culture. sometimes i forget that there’s so many hockey lovers who didn’t grow up around Hockey Guys tm and sometimes i forget just how different of a perspective i (lesbian who grew up with hockey guys) have from some people

#never meet your heroes or something idk. said 2 my friend the other day that at least 30% of nhl players prob bullied kids like me in school #i believe in ppls abilities to grow and change. for example the hockey guy i knew growing up who loved to belittle girls in gym class and i #was so mean to him back and his mom came and visited our class one day and he told her i was a bitch or something and i said he thinks i ca #t play sports. and between his mom and i we set him right. in that aspect at least. he was still a dick in high school (and made rhat awful #(possibly niche to my high school) hockeyboy fashion choice of nike socks OVER his joggers (???) with birks) but at least he was an equal o #portunity dick to everyone. anyway. no one needed to know all that. luckily no one i went to scjool with ended up in the nhl but there are #lot of them who i wouldnt be surprised to see them saying the shit from that burner acc #something something. grew up in a hockey city in canada. anyway whatever.#personal
