It was meant as a joke, not the greatest. She did not have bad intentions and her apology seems well intended. Long but well intended.

As a female and minority I'm a little more sensitive to how people say things about gender and race. Oak had a good point about insert women/female with fat or Black and people might respond differently. I frequently come across this when people make flip remarks about my race especially because I do not have the stereotypical looks of my race. When I jokingly repeat the comment replacing it with a characteristic of theirs, they pause. Inside it really bugs me but I do my best not to get angry (and it's not always worth it.) I try to be nice with no edge in my voice or mannerisms and use it as an opportunity to show what it really means.

That said, I will not boycott Trek or anything like that. But I will not go out of my to buy their products. Obviously her actions support women's sports. I applaud her for that. But for all the things she listed, something about it tells me she doesn't get the point of why some of us found it offensive.

Ok, I too am ready to move on.
