Calling the USWNT "Arrogant" Is Infuriating to Any Girl Who Played Sports, and Here's Why
We're two games away from the FIFA Women's World Cup Final and every eye, ear, iPhone camera, and Twitter account are turned towards the US Women's National Team. They're are playing England on Tuesday in hopes of securing a spot in the championship game. They're breaking records on the field and going viral off of it. And a lot of it - surprise! - isn't so popular. "Are These American Stars Too Arrogant?" was the splashy, star-spangled headline of a feature in the Daily Mail on Monday morning, under large photos of Alex Morgan and Megan Rapinoe. The subtitle: "They are so unpopular that even the French are backing England."
The Daily Mail isn't exactly known for its subtlety or its neutral positions. But they're also not the only ones saying this. In the Twitter thread that brought the article to the Internet's attention were replies about how "unlikable" the women's team was. Then there was President Trump's three-tweet response to Megan Rapinoe's "I'm not going to the f*cking White House" video, where he slid in a subtle dig at her appearing to count her chickens a little early: "Megan should WIN first before she TALKS! Finish the job!" And, well, two days later she scored the winning goals in a game against France that some predicted her team would lose.
And of course, you may remember that little celebration controversy after the US's record-setting 13-0 win over Thailand. The huge score itself wasn't the issue. In the World Cup group stage, goal differential is the tiebreaker that could determine whether a team moves on to the next round, clear motivation to rack up as many goals as possible. Still, said many casual viewers and professional commentators alike, the US should have toned down their celebrations. It wasn't very sportsmanlike. It wasn't very nice. It made them pretty unlikable. After defeating Chile 3-0 in the following game, with a team of mostly substitutes, US defender Ali Krieger underscored the US's depth by saying, "We have the best team and the second-best team in the world."
Cheeky? Yes. Confident? Yes, and why shouldn't they be? They're the defending champions. Thus far, no team in the World Cup has been able to convincingly stand up to them for the full 90 minutes. But arrogance? That one struck home.
It's stupid-hard to be confident, just in the world, just in general; as an adolescent, even more so; as an adolescent girl, good luck. Sports are one of the few things that can help. Trust me, when you're growing up it feels like showing you care about anything, let alone being confident about it, is like giving your peers a stick of your own personal kryptonite. Like, here's the thing that'll hurt me the most! Catch! Personally, before entering high school, I'd already learned to be ashamed of my looks, my taste in music, my obsessions with reading and running. In seventh grade, I was so embarrassed by passing comment made about the band on the front of my binder ("Who is that? They look weird,") that I set it on my desk face-down for the rest of the year.
And it's not only that. You also have to be vigilant of not appearing over-confident about anything you happen to do right. I got good grades, and when I earned the highest score on a test or an essay, my classmates were bored, dismissive: "Of course it was you." When I didn't, it was: "You didn't get 100 percent?!" or "Someone beat you?!" There was no way to win: you were either the annoying, cocky b*tch, or the loser who thought you were the best, but weren't.
Sports were my pressure valve. They were the outlet through which I could be unabashedly angry and aggressive, feel confident and powerful, and show that I actually wanted something without having to apologize for it or dim my talent. I yelled at teammates, referees, and, in one memorable instance, my field hockey coach. I cried. I got slammed around in rough games and shoved people right back. I got carded. In a rivalry softball game, I ran into a catcher at top speed, hard enough to knock the ball out of her glove and leave a bruise on my arm that lasted a week. (But I scored.) And when we won championships and tournaments, we dog-piled. We screamed. We threw gloves and field hockey sticks. This was one of the few places we could.
That's why the arrogance thing gets me. The USWNT are the biggest superstars in women's soccer, which makes them some of the most recognizable female athletes in the world, which makes them heroes and role models for millions of people and especially for young girls who might be just as afraid as I was of being authentic, emotional, and powerful. Telling those girls that these elite athletes are arrogant for being confident is both laughable and a slap in the face. If the best soccer team in the world isn't allowed to be confident, then who the heck is? They're unlikable for showing joy? They're unpopular for supporting each other, for believing in themselves? When the unofficial anthem of US Soccer is a chant that goes, "I believe that we will win"?
We wouldn't watch sports if they weren't emotional. We wouldn't play them if they didn't matter. You can watch hours of touchdown celebrations on YouTube, elaborate to the point of the NFL handing down fines to the players that go too far. Telling women to temper ourselves, to tamp down our confidence and joy lest we become "arrogant," in one of the only arenas we're able to go full-throttle, is nothing short of infuriating.
The US team is talks big and plays bigger, which is what champions do. They have the crown, the target on their back, and the chip on their shoulder, all at once. They're good, and they know it, but that doesn't make them arrogant. It makes them inspiring. It makes them engrossing. Unlikable? Unpopular? Arrogant? Tell it to every girl who's ever walked onto a field, stepped onto a court, jumped into a pool, jogged onto a track, walked into an arena, and felt herself stand a little taller. We get it. We'll help you. Allow us to explain.
This Move Takes Deadlifts to a Whole New Level, and You Don't Even Need Weights to Do It
I now know that squats alone won't equal booty gains - they are quad-focused for the most part, so you'll need to do other exercises to really target those glutes. One of my favorites is a single-leg deadlift. Since you're working one leg at a time, this exercise can help build balance and stability, and it gets into the glutes more directly. I'd consider myself good at doing them (though increasing the weight I use definitely ups the intensity). That's why, during a 30-minute full-body strength workout I streamed with my Peloton Digital subscription, I thought I'd have no problem with the isometric single-leg deadlift that trainer Rebecca Kennedy instructed us to do. I was wrong.
This is a bodyweight move, and all you're doing is holding the hinge position of a single-leg deadlift for 3o seconds. You're balancing on one leg with your knee bent and your other leg straight out behind you. Doesn't sound all that hard, right? What makes it extra difficult is that hold - you have to focus on balance while keeping your lower body tight. It works the hamstring and glute of your supporting leg as well as the glute of your back leg (especially when you flex that back foot). This move also forces you to engage your core.
Rebecca told POPSUGAR that, if you do it correctly, you should feel it in the hamstring and glute of your supporting leg more than your quad. "If you primarily feel it in your quad that means you may not have driven your hips back enough when bending your knee, and loaded your thigh instead," she explained. In other words, your weight is too far forward into the thigh of your supporting leg. "Imagine a wall behind you. As you lower into the exercise, try to reach your glutes to the wall behind you, rather than driving your bodyweight forward," she advised.
Rebecca uses the isometric single-leg deadlift for muscle activation before heavier lower-body work and as a burnout move. Ever since I learned this exercise, I've incorporated it into my routine whenever I feel like I need something extra because it really does fire up my glutes and challenge my core (and as a former gymnast, I'm always looking for new ways to improve my balance). In her class, we held the isometric single-leg deadlift for 30 seconds on each leg twice, but Rebecca says you can hold it for 15 seconds and increase time from there. Ahead, check out exactly how to do this exercise and add it to your next workout session for a booty burn you've most likely never felt before!

20 Figure-Flattering Swimsuits Perfect For Women With Small Chests
Swimsuit shopping is a unique battle for anyone, especially if you're self-conscious about being smaller up top. So this season, arm yourself with tricks, and you'll be able to stroll seaside with confidence.
- Flaunt what you have and fake what you don't. If you're looking to create more cleavage, opt for an underwire bra top (or padding). A structured top will shape what you have, while padded cups can actively fake more if that's the look you're after.
- Distract, distract, distract. Ruffles, bold prints, and splashes of color are all far busier than a simple, solid suit and can claim an onlooker's attention.
- Embrace what you can wear. Tiny tops and unique shapes are cute but often spell disaster for women with larger chests. Trendy styles are easy to conquer when support isn't mandatory, so go ahead and play around with fun cuts.
Now that you're up to speed, just read on to shop the cutest suits for small-busted beach babes.

You Don't Need to Sweat Buckets to Lose Weight, a Doctor Says - Here's Why
Finishing a workout drenched in sweat feels like a badge of honor, but it can make you wonder if one that doesn't make you sweat can still help you lose weight, get in shape, and reach your fitness goals. No workout is a waste of time - even a quick walk or HIIT session is great for your body and mind. But when you have specific objectives in mind (losing weight, gaining muscle, improving endurance), you might wonder if a workout that doesn't leave you drenched will still help you achieve them.
We have good news: according to Sander Rubin, MD, sports medicine specialist at Northwestern Medicine, sweating doesn't actually have much to do with the amount of calories you might use up. "Sweating is a much better indicator of a body temperature's regulation as opposed to calories burned," he told POPSUGAR. You shouldn't use the amount you sweat, he explained, as an indicator of how hard you've worked. It's more to do with your environment (whether it's hot or humid where you're working out) and how much your body needs to sweat to regulate your temperature, which is different for everyone.
What Is Water Weight?
In other words: "It's absolutely possible to lose weight in the absence of any sweating in your workout," Dr. Rubin said. What about weight loss that's a direct result of sweating? This is known as water weight, although Dr. Rubin pointed out that there's more to sweat than just water (salt, protein, urea, and ammonia, to name a few). When you sweat a lot, Dr. Rubin said, it is true that you'll end up losing weight just from that. However, you'll naturally put that "water weight" back on when you rehydrate after your workout. "What you'll lose from sweating is not a permanent result of working out," Dr. Rubin said. "It will be replaced by water, as opposed to the actual calories that you're burning working out."
We'll take that as a reminder to rehydrate well after a particularly sweaty workout. "Water weight" is not the kind of weight you really want to lose. Sweating a lot and failing to rehydrate properly can lead to some awful side effects, even if you're only "mildly" dehydrated: you might feel fatigued, dizzy, constipated, and achy from your joints and muscles up to your head. Make sure to drink plenty of water before, after, and during difficult workouts, especially when you're doing them in hot, humid environments, Dr. Rubin added. (And yes, it's worth pausing a run or workout to get a sip of water when you need it.)
Sweating is good (and natural), but don't take it as a sign that a sweaty workout is better than another one that doesn't leave you dripping. As long as you're making the most of your time working out, getting in a balance of strength training and cardio work (here's an effective workout schedule to follow), and eating healthy (try this two-week healthy eating plan), you'll be heading toward weight loss results.

5 Things You Can Do to Help Migrant Children at the Border - and 1 Thing to Avoid

The truth is, there are many things regular American citizens can do to help push for an end to the Trump administration's immigration policies - which include family separation and reports of deplorable conditions in detention centers where children are held - by holding our lawmakers accountable, donating money and other resources, and raising our voices against this human-rights abuse.
Read on for five tangible ways you can make your voice heard (and one thing not to do) to advocate for migrant rights and support those being held at the border.

Exactly How Much an LGBTQ+ Person Spends on Beauty For Pride
Not to sound like a Mastercard commercial, but celebrating the big events you're passionate about is priceless. (Just ask Macy's - the retailer reportedly spends a cool $11.6 million on the Thanksgiving Day parade each year.) For LGBTQ+ people, the biggest one often comes during Pride month, and this year's New York City parade marks the 50th anniversary of the Stonewall Riots, which means you can expect members of the community to go big.
Exactly how big, you wonder? Because it's hard to describe how detailed - and, sometimes, rainbow-fueled - the getting-ready process can be, we asked YouTube personality, activist, and author Gigi Gorgeous to walk us through what she does beauty-wise for Pride . . . and just how much it costs.
Taylor Swift Calls Out Scooter Braun For "Bullying" in Blog Post, and Fellow Musicians Weigh In
Taylor Swift is speaking out after her former label, Big Machine Records, was sold to talent manager Scooter Braun for $300 million. Swift split from the label in November 2018, but Big Machine Records still owns the music catalog for her first six albums. In a Tumblr blog post published June 30, Swift called the sale to Braun her "worst case scenario" and said she had received "incessant, manipulative bullying" from him "for years."
"For years I asked, pleaded for a chance to own my work," Swift started her blog post, after allegedly finding out about the label's transition of ownership when the news went public. "Instead I was given an opportunity to sign back up to Big Machine Records and 'earn' one album back at a time, one for every new one I turned in. I walked away because I knew once I signed that contract, [Big Machine Records founder] Scott Borchetta would sell the label, thereby selling me and my future. I had to make the excruciating choice to leave behind my past. Music I wrote on my bedroom floor and videos I dreamed up and paid for from the money I earned playing in bars, then clubs, then arenas, then stadiums."
"I learned about Scooter Braun's purchase of my masters as it was announced to the world," she continued. "All I could think about was the incessant, manipulative bullying I've received at his hands for years."
Braun is the former manager for Kanye West and the current manager for Justin Bieber, Ariana Grande, and Demi Lovato. In her blog, Swift included a screenshot of an Instagram photo Bieber posted in 2016 of himself FaceTiming with West and Braun. The caption reads: "Taylor Swift what up?" Swift cited this photo as evidence of bullying after "Kim Kardashian orchestrated an illegally recorded snippet of a phone call." She also criticized Braun's involvement when West "organized a revenge porn music video," which showed a re-creation of her naked body.
"Now Scooter has stripped me of my life's work, that I wasn't given an opportunity to buy. Essentially, my musical legacy is about to lie in the hands of someone who tried to dismantle it," she said. "This is my worst case scenario."
Shortly after Swift's story went live, other musicians in the industry began to chime in with their opinions. Halsey and Iggy Azalea jumped to Swift's defense, while Bieber (who has a long-established relationship with Braun) took the opportunity to both apologize to and criticize Swift. Keep reading to see their responses.

Trader Joe's New Hard Lemonade Is the Drink You'll Want to Bring to Every Summer BBQ
My Trader Joe's shopping list doesn't normally include alcohol, but I might have to update it next time, because the retailer is now selling Lemon Peal Hard Lemonade, and I have a feeling it's going to be my new Summer go-to. The sweet and sour fizzy drink has a malt base mixed with fresh lemon juice, cane sugar, and a hint of citric acid to bring out all of its citrusy flavors.
The drink is named Lemon Peal, rather than Lemon Peel, as a reference to the store's use of bells in place of a PA system - because "peal" refers to "a loud ringing of a bell," as the store points out on its website. The hard lemonade is sold in 12-ounce cans for $8 per six-pack, and each can has a 5.7 percent ABV. But they're only available while supplies last this Summer, so swing by your local Trader Joe's ASAP, and check out the citrusy drink ahead.

How to Soothe a Sunburn So You Can Better Rest at Night, According to a Dermatologist
Everything is uncomfortable when you have a sunburn, from showering to changing clothes to trying to fall asleep. In fact, you may notice that your symptoms are more intense at night.
"Many of my patients report that their skin symptoms are worse at night, whether it's from a sunburn or from skin conditions such as eczema," Rajani Katta, MD, a board-certified dermatologist and author of Glow: The Dermatologist's Guide to a Whole Foods Younger Skin Diet, told POPSUGAR. It's a common phenomenon and one that experts are still trying to understand. "We do know that some symptoms are worse when you go to bed because you're no longer distracted by your everyday tasks, but researchers are also studying the role of circadian rhythms," Dr. Katta said. "Just like so many of the body's hormones follow a circadian rhythm, it's thought that some of the body's chemical messengers that relay the sensation of itch may also have their own rhythm."
When you're sunburned, there's a lot more going on than even meets the eye. "A sunburn is a visible sign of damage - it signals that UV radiation has triggered free radical production," she explained. "These free radicals can be very damaging to the skin, causing harm to proteins (including collagen), lipids, and even the DNA in our skin. On a visible level, this chain of events results in redness. On a microscopic level, you'll see cellular damage and cells of the immune system."
To ease the discomfort both during the day and at night, "I recommend starting with cool tap water compresses, and then following with a moisturizer," Dr. Katta said. "Soak a washcloth in cool tapwater, then apply it to your skin for 10 to 15 minutes at a time. Remove the washcloth, then apply a fragrance-free moisturizing cream while your skin is still damp. This adds moisture to the skin, and helps with barrier repair."
You may also want to turn down the temperature in your bedroom and slip into your softest PJs and sheets. "The key is to avoid irritating your skin any further with sweat or irritating fabrics," she said. Of course, applying sunscreen throughout the day - especially if you're in the sun - is essential to avoiding a sunburn in the first place, but when it happens, these steps can help provide relief.

Kygo Releases Dance Remix of "Higher Love" With Brand New Vocals From Whitney Houston
Picture this: It's 1990 and Whitney Houston is at the peak of her career. She records a cover of Steve Winwood's hit "Higher Love" from a few years prior, but as Rolling Stone reports, she was about to break into the R&B sphere and her team preferred that she didn't release covers. Now, it's 2019 and her posthumous version of the uplifting hit is about to be the song of the Summer. Houston's estate recently teamed up with Norwegian DJ Kygo for a remix of the song, and our playlists are officially complete.
Seven years after her death, Houston's stunning vocals shine throughout Kygo's beat, and Pat Houston, her sister-in-law and executor of her estate, feels it's the perfect time for the song. "The current cultural environment has been thirsty for something uplifting and inspiring," she tells Rolling Stone. "Who better to inspire than Whitney, the most exhilarating vocalist of all time?" She said that "Kygo was the first person that was mentioned. He put his spin on it and did a fantastic job."
And he absolutely did the song justice. "I was trying to make it sound like something that she would've done, but also something that's my style," he told the site. Check out the song above and add it to the top of your Summer playlist.

This Is 1 Symptom You Should Never Ignore After Sex, According to an Ob-Gyn
Sex should leave you feeling euphoric, but if your stomach has ever felt unsettled afterward, it's important that you get to the bottom of it. "It's never normal to feel nauseous after sex," Lauren Streicher, MD, an ob-gyn and medical director of Northwestern Medicine's Center for Sexual Medicine and Menopause, told POPSUGAR. That said, it does happen, usually for one of a few reasons.
The first has to do with the cervix, the gatekeeper between your vaginal canal and your uterus. "Contact with your cervix during sex - or cervical stimulation - can create a vasalvagol response in which your blood pressure and pulse drop," Dr. Streicher explained. This can cause you to feel nauseous or even to pass out. Your cervix changes throughout your cycle, dropping lower during your period, which may make it more susceptible during penetration.
You might also feel nauseous if sex is painful, which may be the result of an underlying condition. "Women with endometriosis and pelvic inflammatory disease may experience painful intercourse," Dr. Streicher said. Other causes range from vaginal or cervical infections to fibroids. "If you experience any type of intercourse that is painful, you should see a gynecologist," she added.
Perhaps more rarely, nausea is a symptom of a psychological condition known as sexual aversion disorder. "We don't know how often it occurs in women, but we know that it can stem from past sexual trauma, or being brought up in a very religious atmosphere where sex was 'bad,'" Dr. Streicher explained. Treatments like cognitive behavioral therapy or anxiety medication can help, so always discuss any concerns with your doctor.
