Sport is surely a good thing for everyone, including young girls and women. Obvious health and fitness benefits as well as offering an innocent alternative to potentially darker pursuits. Strong sporting competitiveness in women though is, to me at least, a turnoff. It’s just not feminine. Ok, call me old-fashioned but I always liked women to be women.<\/h5>\n
But as we now know, gender is just a social construct. (Why, one of my friends just told me that he’s six months pregnant). Men and women are the same, even in sport. Of course as every schoolboy knows they are nothing of the sort. Even in more or less gender-neutral sports such as tennis and golf men are vastly superior. For example while at their prime and pumped up with steroids the Williams brothers were both well beaten by an unknown German ranked outside the Men’s top 200.<\/h5>\n
So what’s behind the relentless campaign to push women’s sport and to create some kind of perceived equality with their male counterparts? For a start I don’t believe it’s commercial, especially for sports traditionally associated with men. There will never be a major audience for the female versions of those sports. So what then?<\/h5>\n
Well maybe I’m paranoid, but I see it as part of the overall project for the destruction of traditional Western civilisation. Now at first glance it might seem preposterous to imagine the ‘muddied oaf at the goal’ to be concerned with such lofty objectives. And indeed he or she will be blissfully unaware of such profound underpinnings to their pastime. But once the first domino is pushed things have a way of taking care of themselves.<\/h5>\n
Take the case of women’s rugby. Now for those of you unfamiliar with the sport, rugby is like American football, but without the protective accoutrements. It’s brutal and almost all of us who’ve played carry the scars of those confrontations. For example an ex-prop forward can usually be identified through his cauliflower ears, smashed in facial features and restricted joint movements. Other positions carry their own unique risks with concussion all too common among the backs.<\/h5>\n
\"\"<\/a>Seems like just about the last place to find the fairer sex, you’d imagine. Au contraire<\/em>. Women’s rugby is taking centre stage in the sporting firmament…at least according to the media. The Rugby Unions pour in funding while sponsors rush to get involved. This despite minuscule attendances and participation rates which in turn reflect the utterly abysmal standards.<\/h5>\n
What’s it all about? Well, I’ll leave you with this advert for women’s rugby at Arizona State University which perhaps inadvertently leaves this particular cat out of the bag.<\/h5>\n
