Figure skating world championships were considered to be for men only until 1902, when Madge Syers showed up and took home silver and the ISU went "whooooops guess we need to segregate them." It happened again in 1992 Olympic skeet shooting: Zhang Shan took gold and then they segregated the event.

Had such a nice Taylor Swift community on Threads. Cats and TS were the only things to soothe my election-broken soul. Now Zuck has to f*uck it up again and I need to start all over.
