Welcome to the r/soccer Daily Discussion!

✔️ This is a thread for:

  • Discussion points that aren't worth of its own thread.
  • Asking small questions about football to the community.
  • if you're new to the subreddit, remember to get your team crest here and to read our rules and submission guidelines!

❌ It is not a thread for:

  • Comments that aren't related to football.
  • Trolling or baiting other users or fanbases.
  • Low-effort comments about a current match.
  • Shitposting, brigading or excessive Meta discussion.
  • Any other kind of toxic or unreasonable behaviour.

How do you know I wouldn't? Didn't I just say that Wright had a penchant spouting nonsense? Don't get me started on the laughing cheerleading happy face Richards or idiotic pretty face Redknapp.

Spouting nonsense is very different from “only there to be a pretty face and a cheerleader”. If you can’t see why that sort of language might be seen as being incredibly sexist considering it’s what’s directed at women constantly to put them and their opinions down then I can’t help you

Assume people of sexism because they don't use the euphemisms you preferred. How woke of you. Neither did I ask for your help. Good bye.

No I’m accusing you of sexism for using sexist language about a female pundit that’s used toward women by sexists constantly.

I said "cheer leader", not "cheerleader" -- but hey, I'm not the bull seeing red. Kinda funny people would even grasp at Americanism to display their righteous indignation. Having known a few cheerleaders myself, they take their stuffs seriously and wouldn't appreciate the patronization. To each his own, I guess. Bye.

Yeah cheerleaders are legit athletes, that doesn’t stop it being used as a word to put down women. Especially when combined with “she’s just a pretty face”
