Nothing to do with the Country. Individual States can do as they choose. Nobody will be more than a $30 bus trip from a legal abortion.

Sure, because that's normal. And also not counting the states that are actually going to try and make traveling out of state for an abortion illegal. And also entirely besides the main points.

If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated! Full story and how to help can be found here!

Sex education in schools? Kinda outdated idea when teenagers can find all the information and then some online? :p

Yes, because porn is known to be a reliable form of sex education :)

Who says anything about reliability? Teenagers getting pregnant is old news. :lol:

Yes, but that doesn't mean it's a good idea to get rid of sexual education. That's like saying "children are going to be shot in school anyway, why try to do something against the ease with which any psycho can get a weapon?".

Teenagers getting pregnant is a global theme. School mass shootings is almost endemic to USA and their crazy gun culture (and holding on to laws from 1791 :lol:). If Americans want to live in 18th century reality then it makes sense sexual education gets removed from schools as well :old:

Holding on to laws from 1791 isn't so much the problems. The problem is the crazy interpretations!

What else do you expect from a country where the same two parties are holding power for 160 years? :lol: And they keep telling us it's the best democracy in the world. Talk to the hand :wacko:

    • no idea. I just repeated what I read  but I won't be surprised if they make a mistake like this. the officials here are usually terrible in reading the rules. if I remember correctly they sent an Ice hockey team to the Games back in 2017 but most of the players were ineligible to play per IIHF rules and they played some friendlies instead    btw there is a federation, but not an ISU member. Ice Skating (which has a very very limited activity here) was a part of Skating (roller sports) federation but now moved to Skiing federation which officially changed its name to Skiing and Winter Sports Federation.

    • There is a saying to never trust a Russian in gymnastics. Well, ex-Russian turned Bulgarian Elvira Krasnobaeva is transferring now to Armenia.   The "official" reason is for personal, family matters, but in reality it's most likely because she wasn't selected for Paris, which angered her parents. Even though she is only 16, had her breakthrough just this year and started making mistakes, when they amped up the difficulty.   Our Federation's President Iliana Raeva said today, that she received calls also from France and Azerbaijan about Elvira's mother basically auctioning her. Raeva mentioned, that Krasnobaeva was going to be a vocal point in the next Olympic cycle, but now she can hit the road and missed her chance to ever compete for Bulgaria, even if she wanted to in the future.    We are also going to make a new Group from next season. After the disappointment in Paris, 4 out of the 5 girls announced their retirement.
    • true, but was expecting India to get troubles from Australia, not from New Zealand, and specially not by being bowled out. Makes the group phase interesting though
