Have you ever wondered why you only want to watch men play sport?

Not particularly. I generally adopted the sports that my dad and older brothers followed. And as they are, obviously, even older than me it should be obvious even to you why they only watched the men's versions as well.

I'm not a person who enjoys watching 'neutral sport' that I dont have any interest in or knowledge about. I only enjoy watching sports I love and am invested in - and that's been Football, Cricket and Snooker. And because there was very little, if any, high profile female Football and Cricket when either myself, my older brothers, or my dad were growing up, then the versions of Football and Cricket they and I grew up interested in and invested in - like almost everyone else - was the men's versions.

Since the women's version has gathered momentum, I've already had my sports that I'm invested in and that hasn't changed all my life. I haven't suddenly started following any other sport in my 30's and 40's either, whether male or female version. And I haven't sat down to ponder why I don't have an interest in Basketball or Golf or Motor Racing either. I just haven't any interest in them. And that's probably as well as Football, Cricket and Snooker take up enough (too much!) of my time without thinking I'd better start watching all the other hundreds of sports, and all the diferent versions of them, as well.

Once again, I'll ask you why you seem to think it's compulsory for people to adopt an interest in something they previously hadn't when interests and hobbies are meant to be each to their own? Nothing or no-one can hope / demand to have anything close to 100% approval rating. Even men's football, with its huge global appeal, you must have heard many people, as I have, say they don't follow it, dislike it, hate it, etc? And that applies to everything. As nothing has close to 100% approval. That being the case, what the hell is the thinking behind trying to imply that anyone who has no interest in women's football must have something wrong with them!? You mean it can't just be something that's liked by some, disliked by others, and the majority just not really care much about either way - like pretty much every other sport?

If you dont like womens football im inclined to believe you are likely harbouring and disguising homosexual feelings or youre a big bald stella drinking nonce who has an england flag tattoo, some shite sleeve that makes zero sense and hate women because youre a drunk and your other half resents you.


What is wrong with:

- Being bald?
- Liking Stella?
- Being homosexual
- Having tattoos?

Some people would prefer women couldnt vote, didnt have careers and stayed in the kitchen while football was on, you would only see foreigners when on holiday and its your english neighbours in spain and the only time you heard someone speak in a foreign language is when youre abroad and start talking really loudly and slowly with what you think is the waiters accent when youre ordering food.

England women are a joy to watch. Hopefully the whole of the womens game gets the support so the young english girls get afforded the same environment and opportunities as young english boys. If it had always been a level playing field i suspect there would be no discussions over the standard.

You don't half spout some shite on here.

Absolutely no interest in Women's football but that doesn't mean I hate women. I watch women in other Sports; Tennis, Olympics etc but I just have no affiliation to the women's football game or any of the teams in it.

Just because you follow men's football, doesn't mean you should or need to take an interest in women's football and vice versa.

There is nothing wrong with being bald, im a big fan of patrick stewart and his lack of hair doesnt effect that. Nothing wrong with being homosexual, im a big fan of patrick bamford and that doesnt effect that. Nothing wrong with tattoos, mike tysons face tattoo looks class. Nothing wrong with stella, untill you hit the missus.

It just so happens that misogynists and racists have been known to be bald or have sporadic british tattoos and/or like a stella, if you are racist or sexist and happen to be bald, have shit tattoos and a bit of a drinking problem then there is something wrong. If you are Patrick stewart or dwayne johnson there is no issue.

What a truly bizarre heads gone moment this is. You don't half chat shite but this takes the cake.
