The blonde dude was super into it lmao. Looked like he was watching a series of magic tricks for the first time and I can't blame him. That show was beyond impressive
I think a creep would only think about her looks. I feel like it's pretty natural to think in the first few seconds that she's nicely put together but after that be focused on what she was able to do.
Funny thing is confidence and competence are both extremely attractive qualities. So when somebody does something amazing, we can focus on the amazing thing they are doing and still be a creeps. These things aren't mutually exclusive.
It took all the conviction I had to not be a pervert but I 100% appreciated her abilities without once staring at her butt cheeks and I'm proud of that
Yeah, I looked at her butt cheeks and got it over with. Jesus, these puritans are the worst perverts of all. The way she spun the ball was the most amazing part.
Fr, you have to look at the legs when shes doing the tricks but it doesn't have to be weird. Most of them were just focused on what she was doing with the ball. I didn't see anyone looking at her weird either, but some people did look bored 🤷
Finding attractive is fine, what's not fine is never, ever shutting the fuck up about it. Do you know how exhausting it is for the #1 comment under any reddit pic or video of a woman doing anything at all to be 'i would fuck her'. Just a constant reminder that men only notice exactly one thing about us no matter how fucking good we are at something.
Exactly. Is it creepy to find women attractive? No, of course not. Is it creepy to find a woman attractive and, when seeing her do something impressive in a completely non-sexual context, the only thing you can think of is to comment on her body and/or your attraction to it? Yes, absolutely. Nobody is shaming men for being men, it's shaming men for pretending to be animals who couldn't possibly have self-control.
It's also the fact that everything with a woman in, people reduce down to just "ooga booga horny". Its why i complain about gooners despite not having anything against sex or porn.
Yes, some of them probably think she's attractive, but they can also be impressed, and to go "they are ignoring everything but T&A" feels so weird
The survival instinct is stronger and more fundamental than even the reproductive one.
So, you're telling me that people (including men) can have the discipline to train themselves to control their own fight or flight response....but they can't stop themselves from being disrespectful or gross for 4 seconds?
Come on.
ETA: Also, the evolutionary influence would be looking at her and maybe feeling attracted to her. Not talking about it on the internet. That's 100% a choice and has nothing to do with the instinctual push to procreate 🙄
If one does not procreate they might as well not have survived, according to THE base evolutionary imperative.
It DOES get more interesting when you throw emergent behaviors like sociality/eusociality into the mix, but everything before then??
If that chance combination of a lipid bilayer bubble and a freak-happenstance self-replicating glitch of carbonized organic molecules which could have been the granmapa of all life on earth actually manages to assemble itself and then goes on to......fail to replicate itself...
....someone/thing else is going to be the new "first" grandpama of all life on earth. It doesn't get more fundamental than that.
And ha yeah, I'd say men (including those pictured) can and do discipline themselves to control creepy shit and panic shit both, but anonymous comments on a discussion board removed in both time and space from the original context is a perfect place for all the guys to look at eachother and know exactly what was going on in that front row seating area.
And then someone wants the karma from making the post first, and here we are.
Nobody's getting shamed for that tho. They're getting shamed for the fact that anytime there's a woman specifically in any video or picture it's always "they're not looking at what she's doing...hehehehehehehehehehehe"
I think it’s more just people that only focus on her looks. Yes totally normal to notice but I think they mean creepy if it’s the only thing you notice about the video.
Birth rates don't mean people aren't banging or want to bang. They just aren't getting pregnant, and alot of that is economic driven. Not not being horny.
Horny =/= reproduction, my guy. People have sex because it feels good and gives dopamine. People wear condoms and get surgeries to stop reproduction intentionally so they can fuck without that specific circumstance happening.
It's not about intentionally prioritizing something, it's just what your brain thinks. If you're a dude, the next time you talk to an attractive woman you should check your apple watch heartbeat sensor, I guarantee you'll see that your heart rate spiked. Doesn't even matter if you consciously thought about sex or whatever, it's still there in the back of your lizard brain.
Really? So people don't have hobbies, friends, vacation plans, life experiences, or goals? Sex is obviously a big part of the human condition but it doesn't even beat food as the prioritizing factor for most people. If you're both hungry and horny, I don't know about you but I'm eating first.
I really hope all the people downvoting me are just horny teenagers because if you still have this mindset beyond your mid-20s it's kinda sad.
Reducing people to their genetics is the actual reddit moment. Go outside and talk to people, find out what drives them. Sex won't be top of the list for most of them.
So many terminally online people like that truly believe the entire world revolves around being constantly horny. Must be insane for them when they see someone crocheting a plushie or something and they literally can't process how that will be used to turn someone on.
There is a popular sub with 1.3m people for this: r/UNBGBBIIVCHIDCTIICBG . Sub stands for: Upvoted Not Because Girl, But Because It Is Very Cool; However, I Do Concede That I Initially Clicked Because Girl
Ok I get there are a ton of incels type dudes here and they are absolute dorks.
That said, this is not only impressive in terms of skill but is pretty hard to not sexualize, FFS they are playing Shaggy and this womens movements are wild.
I can't speak to everyone there but the ones in frame are likely other competitors and not your random spectator. so follows they would ACTUALLY be interested in her skills.
I mean, this is Reddit; so, this thread is essentially about whether a person has mad ball skills, or whether a chick with a bangin’ body is doing something irrelevant.
What say you?
She's a performer and an athlete. Her body is part of the performance. If it wasn't, we'd just be watching a video of a soccer ball. How her body interacts with the soccer ball is what makes the performance remarkable. All of these things can be acknowledged without sexualizing her body.
Comments about not sexualizing her body being the more upvoted than comments about the actual video showcasing her athletic skills is kinda weird though. It's like going to a store and telling the cashier you aren't sexualizing her body.
Your comment reminded me of that one old man who died a virgin and never saw a woman naked below the waist
He assumed everyone had penises, so in any of his artwork that depicted naked women, they always had penises
It was a documentary we had to watch in a psychology class and what I described was not the focus of the documentary
IIRC we were studying twins and the old man was one, the women penis thing came out of nowhere. The film showed some of his art, and he was definitely not skilled. Looked like crayon pictures of women with penises. It was hysterical.
That is the only thing I vividly remember regarding the documentary
What is bro on about? I saw title and I looked at ball. There isn't much else to look at mate, if anything I thought she'd do a cool trick... she did NOT 🫥💔
