It’s white male privilege and men’s sports privilege. Female staff in women’s leagues are pervasively undervalued, underpaid and treated like garbage. This highlights what we, who love the women’s game more than anything, have seen and experienced in every facet of staffing

None of this is meant to question how good a coach Nate Tibbetts is or will be. He may do a great job in Phoenix. It's about the opportunities that Black women in particular don't get, especially in a business where they represent the majority of the work force. ...

12 months ago. We were both unemployed. Out of the game. Clueless what’s next. Questioning ourselves. In doubt. But we dusted ourselves down and refused to be kept down. Now my mate Becks is showing the world how very special she is. NWSL Coach of the Year all day! Vote now! 👑

How can you ask women to program their exercise training synced with their cycle, when they don't even know what phase of the MC they're in? journals.physiology.org/doi/abs/10.115… Menstrual cycle phase-based training is a fallacious practice with no evidence to support it #period #menstrual

Power stays w/white cis het men,because other men only value their voices & use their power to further their own power Notice how many cis white het men in physios R now expert in the 'soft skills' they ridiculed 5 years earlier? Who is excluded? Stop inviting the same 11 men.

Can someone help me understand two things: 1) why are we petitioning to the CEO and not our governing body to step in here? And 2) why isn’t DPT a protected acronym?

Seeing some posts about manual muscle testing… While I agree that MMT is far from perfect, I also really like it for a lot of reasons. Should we stop using MMT altogether? As with so many things in PT… it depends. For many patients- it’s sufficient.
