Olympic Coverage for Girls Day 3: Lesbian Olympian Relationships - the Speed Skating Edition
 

Ahhhh, snap! Have I got news for you, girlfriends. From that little ditty, it’s pretty obvious I’m boobs deep into the second season of RuPaul’s Drag Race, but I promised you sports and sports you will get. But first I have juicy Olympic gossip to share, and you must lipsync for your life. Just kidding - you get the gossip for free just by reading my column.

Remember when I was telling you that Dutch speed skater, Ireen Wüst was gay?

Well, it turns out she’s been dating a fellow Olympian since May - short track skater Sanne van Kerkhoft.

It also turns out that Wüst is tired of talking about it:

“I want to talk about ice skating”, Wüst said in a recent interview. “You are not asking Sven Kramer (Dutch, European and World All-round Champion, Ed.) about how his relationship is going. So why would you ask me? If I would’ve had a relationship with a guy, you wouldn’t have asked me either.”

That’s a tough call. I think the two are mutually exclusive and can coexist together, but can understand the frustration in wanting to focus on her sport.

Ireen wuust
Ireen being gay is not such a big deal here.
This is the Netherlands, come on. We can all
get married to one another, so I understand
why she just wants to talk about her skating!
