“Congratulations to totally 1000% retired, "no really stop doubting me guys it's actually for real this time" gymnast Oksana Chusovitina on qualifying to Worlds this year.”
the AUDACITY of the official Olympics instagram to post this when they're not giving her a punch card to be in Paris
i'm sure they just don't want to make an exception to the qualification rules but Chuso is the embodiment of an exception in this sport. if anyone deserves this it's her and her story is so incredible no one would be mad
Comments on a video showcasing Oksana Chusovitina competing in the Olympics 8 times;
A female gymnast gets a short haircut so she must have transitioned? I’m sick of this. Stupid so-called progressives enforcing stringent gender roles? Must be a day ending in y.
@chusovitina ‘s tags on the chloi tiktok post (didn’t wanna reblog bc the post itself is long and I’ve reblogged it like 3 times already lmao) but YES 100% to all of the above
Alternate Headline: Retired Gymnast Oksana Chusovitina plans to continue competing as long as she damn well pleases (even beyond 2024) thank you very much.
