olympics edition!!! holy cow olympics.

okay. so. there's this documentary that aired about female weightlifter zoe smith and her teammates hannah powell and helen jewel. and some people on twitter were ass-hats about it and were all about how they weren't very feminine or they were probably lesbians or that they should go back to the kitchen.

and zoe smith wrote this super great thing on her blog about it and i smiled lots.


yay i love it!!! haha! that's part of why i love the olympics so much. physical achievement, guys! what can these bodies of ours do if we work hard enough? AMAZING THINGS!!! and it isn't about looking seeexxxxyyyy (although, damn all that muscle definition sure doesn't hurt on the eyes). it is about strength and skill and overcoming mental hurdles and physical hurdles and yay yay yay!!! i love it. i love it i love it. so excited i might explode.

This is the best. Not to mention how she could beat up all those guys pretty easy, if she wanted.
