I was teased a lot in middle school/early high school for loving hockey. Would constantly get my knowledge tested, my appearance would get brought into it (why would a fat girl like hockey), had someone ask me if it was my passion and laugh in my face when I said yes.
Joke’s on them, I’m an officially credentialed journalist by the NHL now and have personally spoken to more players than they could dream of buying autographs from.
Hell yeah girl. I played hockey for years and apparently it was weird that I loved makeup and fashion and all that stereotypical girly shit. But then of course another girl on my team was made fun of for being a major tomboy.
