Only Spears' most devoted fans (or "stans") rang the alarm that perhaps she was being exploited, discussing the possibility in online forums between debates about the hidden gems in Spears' consequential discography (my two cents: 2011's "How I Roll" is fizzy perfection).In 2020, though, something shifted.

The post Winter Olympics: Here’s every medal-winning LGBTQ+ athlete from the Beijing 2022 Games appeared first on GAY TIMES.

Beijing 2022 was the best Winter Olympics and the worst all at once. It was the queerest Winter games ever, with a lot of out lesbians, some out gay men, the first nonbinary competitor and queer medalists galore. But it was still in Beijing, and China has been brutal on LGBTQ people and elided news of competitors from any state coverage. In addition, controversy over Chinese tennis phenom Peng Shuai continues. While she was seen publicly at the Olympics, she has been forced to withdraw both her rape accusation against a senior official and declare she is retiring from the sport, with no chance of outside intervention if she is never allowed to leave the country. Nevertheless, the early international outrage over China's human rights abuses was all but forgotten after the Olympics began. And there was much excitement —and drama— to be had. It really was glorious to watch.In some respects, queerness felt accepted and uncomplicated. Out Olympic veterans like skiier Gus Kenworthy and speedskater Brittany Bowe were at ease with their sexual identity and it was great modeling for queer kids and closeted adults.

Gus Kenworthy urged the International Olympic Committee (IOC) to reconsider awarding the Games to countries with anti-LGBTQ+ stances.

The four-man bobsledding event at the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics will take place this weekend, but the men of team USA have already won an unofficial gold medal in marketing with “The Bob-Spread.”To reach their Olympic ambitions, the team needed to quickly raise $70,000, and what better way than by stripping down for a sexy calendar?  A post shared by Jimmy Reed (@reedjamesk)“We’d been talking about this for a long time,” U.S. bobsledder Carlo Valdes told NBC Sports.

Former U.S. figure skater Adam Rippon has labeled the women’s figure skating competition at the 2022 Winter Olympics “a complete joke” after the Court of Arbitration for Sport decided to allow Russia’s Kamila Valieva, 15, to remain in competition despite a failed drug test.In a series of tweets culminating with a succinct “f**k this,” Rippon argued that Valieva should be disqualified and banned from the Games. He also expressed empathy for the star skater, laying blame on Russia.“Every other athlete in this competition is having their whole Olympic experience altered to accommodate an athlete with a FAILED test,” tweeted Rippon, who won bronze in Pyeongchang in 2018 and is coaching U.S.
