Guy and Gals, is it manly for men to watch sports on TV?

[RoseySarah]

More of a good family activity?

It's Manly!

Good family activity

Just on my phone during commercials

Normally on my phone while they watch

[ShadezMcgee]

I wouldn't call it manly. Just a guy thing. Guys are more than likely to be engrossed in sports, especially if they played them growing up. So I will watch baseball and college basketball and college football religiously because of my upbringing, but I wouldn't call it manly.

If you played sports, then we can consider it manly.

[RoseySarah]

So I'f I played any sports I'd be manly?

[ShadezMcgee]

I am answering in the context of a man. Not you specifically because there are women's sports.

[ShellyB]

I don't think it makes you manly exactly, however, a lot of men seem to like to watch sports on TV, some women like it also but I notice more men. So if by manly you mean, are men more likely to it, I would say yes, but if you mean if it makes you more manly in some bigger sense of the word, I would say no.

by the way it is funny that the picture you used shows them watching tennis, which is the one sport I am more likely to want to watch than the guys in my life!

[RingOfFire]

Not only that but it's WOMENS' tennis!

I'd say that makes a guy more girly than manly. Although I do have to admit some of those tennis outfits on the girls are quite interesting. 🙂

[RoseySarah]

Which is why I put it. Cause really I'd watch that more then foot ball. Also the guys love perving on tennis so they would comment.

[RingOfFire]

🤪
...

[Chevy1_kb]

I watch I think it's kinda like sport but more not ninja warrior or strongest man in the world or I love snooker a don't think any of these are sports a think or I watch or now and then horse racing because I use to watch it all the time with my dad when i was young before he died and am asking my uncle to help me how to work out how to start putting horses on in the bookies he's done it all his life

[Chevy1_kb]

So that's all the kinda stuff I like everyone I mentioned

[Jersey2]

I played sports growing up and had 4 First Place trophies when only one team was awarded trophies, not like today. But I never really got into watching sports.

Why would I watch someone else play a game, especially a bunch of whiny millionaires. I watch every now and then but I have too much to do than to get engrossed in watching people play a game.

[VictorMachiavelli]

I’m not saying that it’s not manly, but I don’t think it’s manly. It’s more manly to play a sport than it is to watch other men play.

[RoseySarah]

True but most adults are not in shape to play

[VictorMachiavelli]

Yeah but that’s because all they do in their spare time is eat junk, drink beer and watch TV.

[MiddleAgedClimbee]

Not a sports viewer, but I love eating a good meal on game day! Not sure if I'd be manlier in her eyes if I did 😁

[RoseySarah]

So read that as I watch a good meal!

That is great comment thanks

[MiddleAgedClimbee]

I definitely enjoy a nice home-cooked meal, and I do plenty of the cooking :-)

[DizzyDesii]

I don't know about manly but its common for men to do that.

[RoseySarah]

Thanks for your comment!

[GoodGuyBreakingBad]

Yes, it's manly for us men to watch sports on TV.

[RoseySarah]

Yes a man brave enough to say it and bold lmao

[GoodGuyBreakingBad]

@roseysarah Thank you :) LMAO

[Curiousminds2017]

If they don’t get to entangled with it, it can be an acceptable way to spend a few hours once a week.

[RoseySarah]

Just once a week!
Most guys I know have 3 different days they watch!
Some need like 4 tvs

[Curiousminds2017]

That’s a lot

[NathanDavis]

a lot of women watch sports as well... and families as well

for the most part, is just a hobby like many other there... lol

[Billlewis]

Maybe, but I don't know for sure.

[RoseySarah]

Same so won't ever know lol

[love_conquers_lust]

I played growing up, so I don’t watch at all anymore. Nothing quite compares to being on the field verse off it. The game is a lot slower in bleachers. It moves fast as a participant.

[KostasKouvalis]

Sure, but I know a lot of girls who are into sports too. But now that I think of it, they are a bit tomboyish except one

[RoseySarah]

Lol kinda true 😛 depends which sports and who they watched it with before

[Pacquet]

I just see it as that’s what that person is into, I don’t think watching sports is manly or not manly.

[zagor]

What does "manly" have to do with it? Men, or a lot of them, like to do it. So in that sense I guess it's manly.

[Iron_Man]

I used to play sports. I watch the Miami Dolphins 🐬 every Sunday and the Miami hurricanes every Saturday. During football season.

[Anonymous]

it's a major turn off.

[RoseySarah]

Especially to much sports

[LunarEclipse433]

I care less about sports. I know females seem to like the eye candy thou

[RoseySarah]

Only some sports
Others rather watch women's sports

[LunarEclipse433]

No i rarely watch any sports. I never have because I think they are very overpaid. I especially stopped when they start using their interviews as a political platform. Very poor role models.

[Jamie05rhs]

I agree with all 4 options. (The fourth one is to post about the big plays!)

[BLP11520]

I grew up with TV sports so yes

[RoseySarah]

Which ones did you watch?

[BLP11520]

The big 4 and golf

[BLP11520]

Football baseball basketball and hockey

[BrokenWorld]

Wouldn't call it manly, but a man's thing. I believe it's manly to play sports.

[RoseySarah]

Someone else said that and at your age I agree not manly to be out of shape to Huff and puff around

[BrokenWorld]

Oh, really? Just seeing it now.

[Sabretooth]

I personally don't care for it. I'd rather play video games and be a part of the action.

[Slim57]

I wouldn't say it's manly or womanly, just something both gender can enjoy

[Theonlyolympian]

One of my points proven thank you for this comment

[Ms_Facesitter]

Family activity.

[RoseySarah]

With your brothers?

[Ms_Facesitter]

And the parents!

[Nifrayu]

No. I don't think so.

[RoseySarah]

And why is that?

[Nifrayu]

I just think it's a neutral activity. There is nothing inherently feminine nor masculine about it. I've never been interested in watching sports on TV myself. That always seemed like a very boring way to spend my time.

[RoseySarah]

Some trans would love to disagree with her statement to them every thing has a gender

[Nifrayu]

Not to me. Not inherently anyway.

[LemiaOfThunder]

My mom watches f1, cycling , tennis etc

[Staximus]

Sorts are mostly for ruhtards

[Starrrboy]

Yeah it is lol

[Guardian45]

'Manly'? What do you mean?

[Anonymous]

Depends on the sport I guess

[strateguy632]

yes,

[klm75]

It's Manly!

[Hispanic-Cool-Guy]

Nope.
