Well, since they hijacked the quotes thread, time for some Karmatic payback.
Football: The homosexual choice.
Ever notice that most blokes call football, "the beautiful game"? I mean, why? Ever seen a footballer close-up? Not the prettiest ladymen on the planet are they. I mean if mincing up and down a field surrounded my concret and thousands of swearty fanboys is you idea of entertainment, well then, you must have to ask yourself "Is this right?"
I mean, it's just one long boring rendition of ballet with a ball.
I once asked a few local football nuts about the game, to explain the most basic reasons for watching and enjoying the game, and got 4 hours of drunken drivel. As far as anyone has been able to explain to me, the basic jist is that:
1) Watching 11 men perform in comparison to the other 11 men is fun.
2) Pride of supporting your teams men and favourite player.
3) It is a game of skill and subtlety, staregy and position.
4) Women cannot understand the game, making it a purly mans persuit.
5) Comradery with other men.
6) Bond with your teeam and other supporters.
I then asked about womens football, to which I got a rather nasty look and an explenation of "not manly enough".
Anyone see the reasoning here? Watching men run up and down a field giggling and mincing like a bunch of stage show prancers is manly, yet watching boobs jiggle for 90 mins isn't. Am I missing some subtle piont here? Has the whole premise passed me by?
Eventually, I went to women supporters, who seems to have the purest of reasons for watching, male players and "cute bums" being the prime reasons. I asked about sportsmanship and comradery, which was returned with blank stares and and explenation of childish behavior by most players.
So, i'm none the wiser (or am I), but the most likely explenation is that football, the sport, is nothing more that a way for regulare ment ot get in touch with there homosexual tendencies without actually being gay in full.
The study into this subject continues. Pleasze feel free to leave your views on the subject here, as i'm sure may different veiwpoints will help bring this to a resolution.
