Watch: Finland’s Trans Skater Slips Upon Introduction

Finland has broken the glass ceiling with the first transgender national figure skater to ever fall down immediately upon introduction.

The trans skater, Minna-Maaria Antikainen said that skating for Finland was “childhood dream” before getting hit with a bit of reality.

The skater received both praise for the groundbreaking show of representation, as well as mockery over the fall.
