are the World Cup and Hot women done?

rob316

In true boards soccer style I ask the question.

Very disappointing this year, where are the wandering camera men?

Have the feminists dug in and taken control of the cameras too? Do they not realize these beauties want to be captured and adored!

There's been a few decent shots of dollys now I have to say.

With out those types of camera men Pamela Anderson would never be a household name.


But it is funny how they go on about the pictures of woman who are wanting to get pictures take when you have websites aimed at woman doing the same thing with men at football and the Olympics

I underlined the relevant word. It's possibly not the exact same people, drooling over pics of men at the Olympics is as lowbrow as the whole "look at the tits on this one, I'd do her". Which, let's be honest, is pretty much the essence of the "hot" fans thread. And while it might have had a time and place, think it's now a bit neanderthal. Ironically, when I pointed it out there, I think the response was "well fcuk off" which was thanked by many (even mods)!

Your first point is right. “They” is often used assuming that “they” are a group with the same opinion that constantly changes when in reality it’s a bunch of people with different viewpoints that get airtime at different times.

Your second point is nonsense. It’s not Neanderthal. It’s human nature. As long as men exist, most will look at attractive women and say “Look at the tits on this one...” or some such variant. And women will pretty much do the same.

I dunno, I am usually 5 minutes behind the match due to rewinding

It'll be a sad day when a man or women can't comment like that about someone they find attractive.

Oh I agree with some of that...but I did refer to time and place.

This is a football forum, and I suspect we managed to get through the first few international football tournaments without it here. We still get through Irish internationals without it. We manage to get through Irish, English and European club games without it. So I disagree that it's "human nature" to have it here.

That’s because Colombians, Brazilians, Russians and Poles are better looking than the munters from this part of the world...

It's become part of the specatcle of the World Cup I think. I doubt you'd find many of these Instagram types at a League 2 game on a cold Tuesday night. The World Cup is massive from an advertising and branding standpoint. It attracts all types who you wouldn't usually get attending or watching.

I think some of the shots are posed to bits, so much so that it takes away from it tbh. Give me a shy smiling girl anytime or a fan that's genuinely into the action rather than someone dying to boost their profile.

Zico !

That Russian girl from a few years ago who smiled only when she realised she was on camera sends me weak at the knees and brightens my day every time.

I don’t believe in love at first sight but I think I’m in love with her. And she didn’t even have her tits on show.

It’s neanderthal in the sense that we have good internet now and there’s a lot of women on there. Do we really need to wait for the World Cup to see attractive women, pause the tv and take a photo of it?

StringerBell

It's pretty harmless fun and the usual indictment of modern society that it is something people take umberage with. There is plenty more relevant issues for people to get up in a heap about

Who really cares?

You wha? They've been zooming in on loads of hot women at this world cup. It's obviously the screenshotters on boards who are in disappointing form this year.

abcabc123123

Particularly memorable were the Colombians, Tunisians, Iranians. Poles too.

That makes no sense.

You see objections as an indictment of an entire society, and say they should think about more profound issues, whereas those who think about tits during football matches have no such expectations? Unless your point is sure God love them, we hardly expect them to think about Syria.

hopefully, it's cringy as ****

I don't mind that you don't follow my point tbh.

And I'm mildly amused at your whole "people who looks at tits should have no higher demands placed on them, people who object should really think about more profound issues" logic.

So we're happy enough with each other, in the grand scheme of things.

Now now, don't get personal. Look at Omackeral's post and imagine she's smiling at you, so young and...demure...

Unfortunately that day is here. And yet for some strange reason, the likes of Aidan Turner showing his torso in Poldark and the Diet Coke ad will continue. :rolleyes: This social justice wont extend beyond scantily clad attractive women.( i have no issue with Aidan Turner or the diet Coke men, but i do with the hypocrisy of the social justice warriors)

Professional models are now out of work because the same brigade who shouted 'My body, my choice' on abortion, seem to think that Models shouldn't have any choice on their career. And apparently they campaign for womens rights?

Soccer forum was a significantly better place when I could log in and not have to read someone's idiotic political opinions.

Nope its just an opinion which im entitled to express. Either keep moving on past it or actually present some sort of counter argument if you dont agree with it.

pretty simple

Ok then, could you actually flesh out the point where you said 'there is alot to unpack'. If your going to make a statement perhaps provide a bit more detail? Are is your bandwidth limited greatly to 50 characters per post?

You're right, it wasn't fair of me to comment if I'm not prepared to take the time to explain myself. I apologise.

Let me rephrase:

Why is there a thread about the lack of hot women at the World Cup?

I mean if it’s just someone messing grand (I clicked into it thinking it was going to be one of those parody threads you get when United or Liverpool lose a match) but like there absolutely shouldn’t be a thread about how feminists are ruining the male right to look at hot women during the football, and start linking in the abortion referendum etc which blatantly does not belong here.

I mean people are entitled to that idiotic viewpoint if they wish to hold it, and I have zero intention of arguing with those kinds of person. But surely there are more suitable forums (like even within boards.ie) for those sort of discussions?

Why did you participate in it so?? Why are you trying to censor boards?? And yet I am the one with stupid and idiotic opinions (which you are not prepared to explain why) ?? You have a bare faced cheek to suggest anyone or their opinions is stupid considering you thought this was a parody thread??? :rolleyes:

If you are willing to dismiss something as stupid then at least be willing to debate that but surprise surprise i see you are not in the slightest willing to do this. Your just another drive by assassin who hasn't the conviction to actually finish what they start

I would have thought you would have the slightest grain of intelligence to establish that the context of the thread from the title is that political correctness has basically eliminated crowd shots of women. It couldnt be clearer

My viewpoint as explained already is that the media companies are bending the knee to the demands of irrational deranged women who somehow only see a problem with objectifying women in their constant state of perpetual victimhood. i think this is a fair viewpoint with alot of basis and recent happenings to back it up.

Although, Id imagine this has gone right over your head despite you being so much clever then the rest of us :rolleyes:

Mickeroo

Locking this as it's got very little to do with football/sports at this point.
