The NSA Whistleblower’s Girlfriend is a Pole Dancer
Edward Snowden, the man who blew the whistle on the NSA's surveillance tactics, left a girlfriend behind when he had to flee to Hong Kong, and she's one of us! She's a lovely dancer, too. I'm sure this has to be incredibly hard for her. If anyone knows her, maybe we could find a way to send love and support from the pole community her way. She's getting a lot of publicity that she probably doesn't really want right now. Her name is Lindsay Mills. Here's a link to an article and to her youtube.

Ugh… I can only imagine what the media will do with this…

They called her an acrobat on the BBC, but I can only imagine what American news will say…

She is a great dancer! Did she post that video? Maybe we could comment on it saying we're all supporting her from SV. That's the only way I can think of.

Fortunately I haven’t heard of the media being disparaging of her. I am admittedly a little disconnected (no tv) but from what I’ve read there hasn’t been negativity about her poling so far. Fingers crossed. I do think it’s a good idea for anyone who wants to, to send her a YT comment or a private message just letting her know and reminding her that pole family is for life and she has our support.

Her pole and acro friends in Hawaii have banded together to completely avoid the media. Here's the article from United Pole Artists: https://www.unitedpoleartists.com/news/2013/06/pole-dancers-ban-together-for-nsa-leaker-gf-lindsay-mills/
I agree that so far the media has been 'nice' about it. They all love to talk about her looks of course, they can't not objectify her. But they haven't exactly slut-shamed her either. It's way better than I anticipated.
