Uh oh, fellas! It seems that the evil femmies are taking over another bastion of manhood: the NFL.
According to one Man Going His Own Way(very loudly) known as Cybro, who blogs at Rex Patriarch,
Another male space is being assimilated.
Making the players wear pink was the beginning of the end. It may have even started before that with the female sportscasters getting in front of the cameras while men were trying to watch football but the trend is now clear.
Human sacrifice, dogs and cats living together. LADIES IN FRONT OF CAMERAS!
The FemBorg Collective is taking over.
So what’s got Cybro’s knickers in a twist? An article noting that the NFL is – gasp! – now actually including some women in its policy making process. One women – NFL VP of community affairs and philanthropy Anna Isaacson – has now been given the title VP of Social Responsibility. And the NFL is consulting with several other women on how to win back women after all the recent domestic violence fiascos.
Cybro is convinced that these four women – that’s right, we’re talking about four entire women – are going to turn the NFL into some sort of Orwellian antimale nightmare.
Their idea of Social Responsibility is going to be whatever the Collective says it’s going to be. Sure it will start with something obvious men should already not be doing but it will snowball from there. They are going to push men to jump through every kind of hoop they can dream up just to get into a game.
Actually, I sort of like this idea. Let’s spice up football with some strategically placed hoops!
I can imagine whatever the players are being forced into doing will expand to the male fans. … [F]orget about doing what men do at games. Screaming like maniacs for their team. Last time I checked shouting was a form of Domestic Violence. Security will be all over that when the time comes.
Yeah, I’m pretty sure that shouting abuse at your partner is different than yelling “J-E-T-S! Jets! Jets! Jets!”
It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to figure out that any man who isn’t a complete eunuch will stop going to the games. Most men probably already have but the NFL doesn’t seem to make most of it’s revenue from ticket sales.
It comes from commercials ads.
For those of you who think you are going to just record the games and skip through those annoying ads I got some very bad news for you. Not only are you going to be required to watch those ads but you will have to take a test in order to continue watching the rest of the game. The internet and cable already have Parental Controls on them so it wouldn’t be a stretch to add some Male Controls to them as well.
No, that might be just a little bit of a stretch.
What will all this do to professional sports?
It will crash it if the FemBorg Collective has its way because that’s the whole idea to begin.
To assimilate male space and destroy it.
Yep, that’s right. The NFL gives one female executive a new title, and hires three other women as consultants, because NFL players keep getting arrested for (alleged) domestic abuse, and this means that FOOTBALL IS DOOMED, DOOMED I SAY! IT’S THE END OF MEN!!!
MGTOW… Because resistance is not futile.
Mr. Man Going Your Own Way, please, please, please, please, please, just go.
Don’t anyone tell this wank-tank that pink used to be a “boy” color, and blue used to be for girls!
I’m not getting the connection between a few women in VP positions and forced commercial viewing. There’s something about “male controls” scribbled down in the rant, but I don’t know how this forces you to watch ads. Don’t guys who watch football always get up and get a beer while the ads are on? (I’m a guy, but I don’t watch football, so I have no original research the verify this.) Would the “male control” in the box manage to lock the fridge, or perhaps freeze the Lazy-Z-Boy handle to prevent the man from getting up? I’m trying to parse this, but it seems written from an alternate cyberpunk future rather than the reality I know. Maybe his use of “Borg Collective” indicates he is transmitting to us from an alternate reality? Possibly the future from Star Trek: First Contact where the Borg assimilated Earth? But I don’t think the Borg collective would want to play football.
Either way, I will allow him and football to please go their own way.
Dear God. Will no one save the menz from all the relentless gender analysis?

These may be the same guys who think white males are the majority of the population of the world and that is why they win all the Nobel prizes. No! Srsly. They are out there saying that.
Is “get your knickers in a twist” an acceptable alternate? Seeing as knickerbockers originally clothing worn by men and boys? Just wondering…
Cheerleaders aren’t there as people; they’re there as eye candy – cheap entertainment for middle-aged married guys to leer at. There’s never any problem in putting T&A in these male bastions – it’s reminding them that the T&A are connected to brains and mouths that raises hackles.
Try to imagine a team of cheerleaders making a statement about global warming or feminism before going through their routine and imagine the apoplexy and screeching that would result.
I don’t even understand the concept of a male space. Dudes, it’s not hard. Get some of your best male friends, go to one of y’all’s abodes, and do whatever you want. BAM! Instant guy night!
@freemage I always liked “boxers in a bunch” or “knickers in a twist” (knickers are gender-neutral, right? o.o;)
I read this and immediately started thinking about why the Borg might want to play football.
Meanwhile….in Australia…
The Australian Football League has had roughly 50/50 gender representations among fans, and has had this for a long time. At the same time they have attempted to increase the diversity of their audience, with more family friendly stands, and outreach to new communities to make the game welcoming.
Somehow the AFL remains popular, and highly profitable. Also, still remains fairly rough.
(NB-Not to say it’s perfect-it’s not, and there is plenty of sexism, and abusive behavior by players. However, it is clearner than its rugby cousins)
It started when Lawrence Taylor (one of the fiercest linebackers in the history of the game) started wearing EARRINGS! Big ole diamond studs. During games!
[…]
Football is for wussies. Now, WWE wrestling, that’s a true manly man sport.
But Taylor has done both! You’re CLEARLY just trying to confuse us MENZ~!
I’m from Wisconsin, Packer country, so I have no idea what this guy is going on about. Entire families will dress in green and gold complete with sport jersey dresses for little girls, available in pink even, if your kid’s into that. I’m not into sports at all, and of the guys I’ve dated, only one was a sports fan. Packers and Brewers, naturally.
If Cybro isn’t posting from an alternate reality, then he must be posting from somewhere where no woman ever watches any kind of sports.
Wait, how does he think Male Controls will stop men from watching football? I thought tech was something men (and only men) were supposed to be good at by manosphere logic. If teenagers can get past parental controls all the time, shouldn’t Male Controls be a breeze for alpha male tech geniuses?
I like “knickers in a twist”, I think.
Ah, but remember, the alphas often cater to the feminists in order to keep the betas in perpetual servitude. Red-pillers (especially of the MGTOW variety) will often admit to not actually being alphas, whom they resent for being the cocks of the proverbial (nay, mythical) carousel.
And letting black soldiers be equal to white soldiers will lead to Armageddon. And Obama admitting that football players get concussions makes him the Manchurian candidate.
These fuckers are a fragile bunch. Four whole women in an authority position make them go to the bathroom all over themselves.
And frankly this guy can’t name one non imaginary reason this is bad
I like “undies in a bunch” personally.
Masculinity: according to these guys, the toughest, smartest, strongest shit in the world… but so brittle it is destroyed by the presence of four women.
Okay then. Good to know which side I should be on!

I would, at this point, dearly love to reflexively sneer at an Aussie and defend the honour of our glorious national sport against the pitiful imitation that is AFL.
But i can’t, on this matter. The Aussie wins.
Football is a manly man sport for men! Women only make up a measly 42% of fans, after all. Barely worth counting.
First they came for the NBA, and I did not speak out because I was not an American.
I honestly prefer CFL, although I’m apparently a minority.
Whoops.
Clearly I meant *NFL I have no idea where that came from.
All the football fans I know have Strong Opinions about whether the CFL or the NFL is the more enjoyable league to watch.
MRAvin K. Mooney, would you Please Go Now?
…
Sorry. I just had to.
The TRUE conspiracy is revealed! It is Canada that is trying to take over, not women! Soon you will all drink dark ale, and eat poutine and say “eh” after interrogative statements!
Mwhahahahahahaha! and Take off, eh!
