Rodnina about the same -sex pairs of skaters: these are not same -sex marriages – do not confuse

The three -time Olympic champion and State Duma deputy Irina Rodnina appreciated the same -sex female couples in figure skating. Her words are given by Sport24.

Rodnina said that such duets have existed for a long time. “Why should I be against same -sex couples? These are same -sex couples, not marriages – do not confuse, ”she emphasized.

The deputy also shared the opinion of male pairs. “If you like it, let them ride. These competitions, like synchronous lines, began to arise, because not everyone can jump triple and quadruple, and even double not everyone can jump. But people love figure skating, ”Rodnina said.

Earlier, two -time Biathlon Olympic champion Dmitry Vasiliev, evaluating this issue, predicted that Western skaters will begin to perform with cats and dogs in the future. Olympic champion in ice dancing Natalya Bestemyanova supported the competition of same -sex duets.

Olympic champion Frenchwoman Gabriela Papadakis and American Madison Hubbell acted like a female duet at the Art on Ice Gala show in Zurich. In competitions under the auspices of the International Union of Skate, such duets do not take part.
