    I'd say daft more like. Hey I like looking at half naked(naked too) women with nice bodies. I'm a man, it's my job. Then again I'm under no silly illusions that it is what it is. I don't need an excuse dressed up as "sport" to do it. I'm not that puerile, disconnected or dishonest about it. TBH hard core pron is less sexist and silly than that.

    Rejoice in the awareness of feeling stupid, for that’s how you end up learning new things. If you’re not aware you’re stupid, you probably are.

    I've looked up some vids and saw about 90% of the time dedicated to photoshoots and one decent forward pass.

    I'm going to aiming for discriminatory over sexist myself.

    Pfft, the standard of football is rubbish. Pure exploitation (of guys foolish enough to spend money on it).

    Haha, female empowerment. :D

    Its just soft porn, except they keep some of their clothes on. I don't think anyone, not least the makers or models themselves, think it is anything else.

    Meh, if they willingly sign up for it then I don't see what the big fuss is about.

    If female empowerment means being a whore, I'm all for it.

    In fairness it's not sexist, but it is simply objectifying women.


    On a different note, I bet their daddy's didn't see this coming when the took their little girls to play football as kids.


    It's interesting to see though, that in American Football the guys where huge Kevlar Padding. The Girls wear Lingerie!!!!

    Sexist, amazingly stupid as a concept, and as much about sport as mud or jell-o wrestling is.
