Equal rights

Thrasher Magazine, April, 2004 by Alex Sampson

I'd like to thank your mag for helping me to see skateboarding for what it really is. I would also like to give all of you sexist male skaters in Georgia a big head's up. I am a 14-year-old female skater and it kind of seems to me that whenever a gift may happen to walk into one of your dingy little skateparks, you laugh every time she falls or lands wrong. But when one of your own busts his butt, you're all ready to help him out and teach him new tricks. You'd think a pair of boobs would have an advantage.
