Do you think women's football is a rebellion against a heteronormative, male-dominated culture?

[MerakSahibi]

With the World Cup excitement going on, I'm not a die-hard fan myself, but in general, men who think football is stupid tend to be gay. In fact, if gay people make up around 3% of society, then among male footballers that figure is at most 0.03%.

Strong, masculine facial features stand out

I say male footballers because when it comes to women, the situation is supposedly the complete opposite. Perhaps 90% of female footballers are lesbians. They usually sleep with their teammates, and when they transfer to another club, they break up and get together with another teammate.

A certain person famously argued that it was immoral for women to take part in fields like football and basketball. According to him, men created such sports to compensate for their biological "deficiency"—namely, not being able to give birth.

As for the issue they constantly complain about—pay—they are not producing an equal level of performance. Fifteen-year-old boys can dribble circles around them. But if stadiums were actually full of people coming to watch them, then I could say they had a point about the pay issue. Still, why would someone choose to watch a match that offers less entertainment?

Yes, you brought up an interesting point

No, statistics and data don't really matter to me. I'd just chalk it up to coincidence rather than trying to find a connection

No, I think it’s just women who like football and like to play football.

[choco-latte]

I like football, I’m not a lesbian. I’m married and my husband and I love to watch matches together and talk about football.

Women athletes are generally more gay. They do lists for each olympics and the women to to heavily outnumber men, even with there usually being far more male athletes. It's normal.

[FrodoSkywalker007]

www.outsports.com/.../ an example.

[jshm2]

Lol, you've got to much fantasy, and not enough facts there. Kiddo.

[FrodoSkywalker007]

www.outsports.com/.../ it's a very well known fact. 90% is an exaggeration, but the dominate portion of lgbtq athletes are always female. Its tracked by many lgbtw oriented magazines.

[FrodoSkywalker007]

To go into more detail, since you seem the type to ignore it. There were 199 out lgbtq athletes at the 2024 Olympics. 176 were female. Of those, 46 were soccer players. There were only 12 nations in the women's tournament of 18+ players each. That implies around 21% were openly lgbtq. 90% is an exaggeration, but this trend is very well known and has been routinely listed at each tournament for a decade or so.

Women’s football isn’t a “rebellion,” it’s simply women claiming space in a sport men tried to keep for themselves for decades ⚽️

You’re massively exaggerating lesbian percentages and tying sexuality to liking or disliking football, which just isn’t supported by data.

On pay, it’s about revenue and investment. Men’s football had a 100‑year head start, media backing, and money. Women’s football is growing fast; when investment, marketing and opportunities rise, quality and entertainment rise too. Comparing them to 15‑year‑old boys is just a lazy cliché, not real analysis.

Here's analysis: you're masking the bitterness of losing despite trying your ass off with a dismissive attitude, pretending you didn't really care.

@MerakSahibi use this link www.outsports.com/.../ 90% is an exaggeration, but you are correct about the very disproportionate amount of lgbtq women in the sport. Gay magazines release these stats for all Olympic games, and female soccer players often make up the largest portion of lgbtq athletes in the summer games (and women's hockey players in the winter games).

[OneViewpoint]

Another thing I have never thought about and I'm finding it hard to care about now.

[TonyMetal___1986]

These two girls kissing each other on the lips are disgusting!

[Anonymous]

I dont think so, women have played even rougher sports since the ancient times (including boxing, wrestling and pankration).

But I do like female football.

[HellOnHeels0]

It’s just who enjoy sports.
