It’s not a “stunning” rise. It’s a widely predicted rise that leaders in too many places are refusing to acknowledge. We have to stop acting shocked at things that are in no way shocking.

Anti-racist work has never been about black vs white, anti-sexist work has never been about men vs women, anti-transphobic work has never been about cis vs not.

What would have happened had the space been smaller than expected on the men’s side? It wouldn’t have taken a Twitter trend to find it.
The NCAA isn't arguing with the accuracy of photos showing disparities between the weight facilities for men and women at March Madness.
A rep told me the women's convention center is smaller and initially thought not to have space. Officials have now apparently found the space.
