Women Hate Watching Sports, According to ‘Men’s Health’/These Stock Photos

If there is only one truth in the world, it is this: we women hate watching sports, right? Seriously, have you ever met a woman that enjoyed watching sports? Is it possible that I am one? Certainly not! Not possible! At least according to Men's Health and stock photographers.

Yes, Men's Health had an entire article about "Talking Sports With Uninterested Women."

I say "had" because they've either removed it or have it strangely hidden behind some sort of Internet barrier so that I can no longer access it. Thanks, Men's Health. Apparently having a vagina means I don't want to read your articles, either. 

OK, so they probably just decided that it was a bad idea to post such an article and took it down, but I like my explanation better.

But, it's not just magazines that assume that we ladies don't enjoy sports. Nope. There are a TON of stock photos out there of dude-bros swigging beer, high-fiving, and yelling at the television while [insert sporting event] plays and women stand in the background looking utterly disgusted and/or bored. Like these:

Let me break it down for you folks that think that we women who enjoy sports are few and far between, or worse yet, non-existent. We exist! Some of us are bigger sports fans than you! I have a girlfriend who could tell you the batting average for damn near every player on the Tigers this season. Why? Because she loves the sport!

The other night I told a guy that I played fantasy football and he looked at me like I had just told him I was a unicorn. Girls play fantasy football, too, bro. And some of us actually know what we're doing.
