For my male peers, there is the convenient label of “guy,” a term that is delightfully versatile enough to span the gap between boy and man and yet narrow enough to distinguish final club members from say, a tenured professor. There doesn’t seem to be a truly equivalent term for females—people are going to throw...

To land cleanly and to maintain the speed that you need...
...move, a singular activity," Kelly says. "But if you look at what Lindsey is putting on the line, doing 80 m.p.h., to keep that going for that long a time, under conditions you don't know, that's pretty tough. I would give her the edge. I think the guy sitting in the bar would give Shaun White the edge...
