women's sports is one of the loudest and most successful anti-patriarchy campaigns in human history. what women's sports did and does is prove, over and over again, the excellence, the raw power and strength of the human woman. it completely disrupts ideas on gender.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
you have big, powerful women in rugby. fast, endurable women runners. impeccably strong gymnasts. women with strong, large bodies that take up space. that are HEALTHY. they are not RESTRICTED or ladylike. they are free of the stillness/deadness that femininity demands. no corsets. no (aesthetic) thinness. no hourglass bodies for gawking. women's sports screams to society "we are fully human, not objects, not small men. we are not domestic dolls. we are hunters and foragers. fighters."
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
why do you think men are so vitriolic about it? why don't they want women in football? why don't they want it televized? why do they keep harassing female basketball players? why do they insist on dressing women in sexualized uniforms? why do they now make it taboo to exculde men from women's sports?
i firmly believe it's because women's sports tears patriarchal gender ideology apart so effortlessly. it completely spits in the face of patriarchal political propaganda and shows how null it is. it forces all of us to view women as full, as the beginning of human excellence, as central to human history. not as decorative sexual objects, no matter how men want us to be.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
that's why there's so much aggression and derision when it comes to women's sports from men. because women's sports destroys the idea of femininity and depicts women as non-derivative. women must be monsters and cannot afford to play into the childlikeness that femininity demands. the arena of sports forces us to focus on women's physical performance rather than appearance. their strength rather than how attractive they are. their skill and strategy. their humanity. it is a form of entertainment where all female roles are agentive and active rather than passive.
Tumblr media
women's sports events are also hotbeds for female and lgb solidarity like you have no idea!
y'all need to start watching women's sports. not only because it is exciting, but it deprograms the patriarchal bullshit out of you so fast. you realize how much is possible. how much we can all achieve right now.

re prev post... I need more people who followed me for Ted Lasso to understand how wildly fucking insane rl football actually gets.
I'm keeping a tally of unhinged moments I want to shove into my fic for this fandom, such as "Goalkeeper gets sent off and a random player has to stand in goal now" or "Goal disallowed because buttocks were offside; ass too big!" or "Crazy penalty shoutout ends with 44 total penalties taken" or "League champions celebrate in the dark after rivals turn off stadium lights after final whistle"
And maybe some people will think I'm making this all and I just have a great imagination, but actually? This ALL happened in club football just this week

Sports Night, "The Sweet Smell of Air"
Conference Room NATALIE: He's gonna bake the bread?
DAN: He's not actually gonna bake it. I doubt they have a suitable oven in the classroom. He's just gonna pretend to bake it.
JEREMY: I'm looking forward to the day when I have kids and I do a demonstration in their class.
ELLIOT: What would you do?
JEREMY: Whatever I was in the mood for. I could make a nuclear reactor if I could get my hands on some decent plutonium.
DAN: Sure.
JEREMY: I can accelerate the aging process of a pumpkin.
KIM: Really?
JEREMY: Yeah. Pretty simple, actually.
KIM: Hmm.
CASEY: I'm back.
DAN: Hey.
CASEY: I'm back and I'm triumphant.
NATALIE: They bought the bread?
DAN: Misdirection, Natalie.
CASEY: I didn't do the bread.
DAN: What'd you do?
CASEY: I did what I do, Dan. I did what I do.
DAN: You screwed up your romantic life in front of fifth graders?
CASEY: No. I got there early and I'm standing out on the playground during recess, and I'm trying to think what I can come up with at the last minute, but I can't concentrate on that because all around me kids are playing games. There's some kickball going on over there, dodge ball over here, hopscotch in the corner, and like a flood, like a surge, I'm suddenly filled with this sense of "I know what the hell I'm doing." And when recess was over, we go back into the classroom—
DAN: And you called the highlights.
CASEY: I called the highlights. It was fantastic. I did interviews with the kids, I did injury reports. I had a little girl named Phoebe do a demonstration of jacks -- shy little girl, barely speaks above a whisper because she's so afraid she's gonna say something stupid, but when I got her talking about foursies, she was like Muhammad Ali.
NATALIE: Nice, Casey.
JEREMY: Beats an aging pumpkin.
CASEY: What?
DAN: Don't worry about it.
