Paris Olympics: May says barriers broken with male inclusion in artistic swimming • FRANCE 24

American artistic swimmer Bill May wants to see the next generation inspired to break gender barriers, as his sport allows male competitors at the Paris Olympics for the first time. May was the first male world champion in the inaugural mixed duet technical event at the 2015 World Aquatics Championships and the 45-year-old never lost his passion for the sport even when an Olympic bid felt nearly impossible.

This was a Saturday Night Live skit and now it’s real. The Olympics are now a meme and a joke.

Women just cannot have any personal space can they? Locker rooms, toilets, sports. 😅
