I admit that football doesn't interest me much. However, the victory of the Spanish team in the FIFA Women's World Cup has been an exciting experience, because of the importance it has had in the vindication of the importance of women in professional sport and, in general, in the defence of women's rights in Spain. No matter how much progress has been made, all rights are always under threat.
On this event, I really liked these comments (in Spanish) from Amnesty International Spain: "Lessons we have learned (or not) from the Women's World Cup".
First thing we haven't learned: to use language in a correct and inclusive way.
Second thing we haven't learned: that only yes is yes.
Third thing we haven't learned: to give the protagonists the limelight.
The things we have learnt: equality, diversity, respect.
@atomicpoet I would love this. The other day I was watching the Norway / Philippines game and I searched Norway and found nothing concerning the game, but I know people were probably writing about it. They just weren’t writing “amazing that #norway has three #goals already against #philippines in the #worldcup#womensworldcup#wwc”
