I am not a swiftie, but uh basically dude-bros be freaking out so hard about this because to them football is their safe-space, their dude-bro, misogyny encouraged safespace.

Like I would watch a WNBA game over and NBA game anytime at this point precisely because of the less absurdly near superhuman physical conditions of the players actually results in games that involve more tactics and strategy and are thus more interesting to me to watch.

Every other guy I've ever met with maybe 6 exceptions thinks thats stupid, what makes more sense is to obsess over exact statistics of pro male players, belittle the fact that basically even an all star female team couldn't defeat a middling male team, and then gamble on games based on extremely faulty statistical 'logic'.

For these people, football, male sports, are both a safe space /and/ a form of vicarious living. They ultimately are not interested in female sports because it doesn't allow them to easily project themselves into the identity of their favorite player or team.

This all combined is hilarious because the average joe male NBA fan would get their shit wrecked by an average WNBA player, but many of them will act like this isn't true.

So, Swift is an invader. Into a masculine holy zone.

Theyve quite literally invented the whole insane conspiracy nonsense because their brains stopped working long ago and what a surprise, boastful misogynists are basically bullies, and fascism is as Orwell said, essentially the ideology of bullies applied to society as a political worldview.

I think that one of the reasons I personally view sports through a less hyper masculine viewpoint is that I trained in Karate as a kid and young adult.

In a Dojo, gender, sex, is meaningless, beyond essentially men should probably wear cups and women should probably wear specialized bras.

In both Kumite and Kata, it was not uncommon for a girl or woman to be capable of outperforming a boy or man.

Either there is no team, or the team is everyone, learning from everyone else.
