Gendered question, I know. If you don’t identify as a man, please feel free to answer with whatever you want. I meant to post it in the Men’s Lib sub but somehow it always bugs for me.

Let’s spill the tea lads

I like painting my nails.

I like gardening and I take great pride in my plants and upcoming indoor veggie and herb garden.

I dance when I go out.

I like bright colors.

I like candles that smell nice.

I like flowers.

I like Harry Styles.

I like crocheting.

Whatever you like, be proud of it. There is no such thing as liking something unmanly. Nothing can harm your manliness. Do what you want.

    I could maybe get it if the teams actually had ties to the cities they’re in, but trading players between teams baffles me.

    I think this is probably part of why the only time I follow football is when it’s the World Cup or the Euros or something with the national teams like that. Obviously I’m not super into the nationalism aspect of it all, but I guess I just find the concept of managers having to kinda just work with what they’ve got more appealing than rich clubs just buying up most of the best players.

      Olympics are better somewhat since national allegiance is much more stringent, but things like the World Cup, Euros, FIFA suck as the teams are bought and traded basically. Like how Frances team from this past FIFA was basically all made up of players from its colonies and not France.

        You definitely have a point when it comes to the sway of bigger countries when it comes to which country players with multiple eligibilities choose, and a lot of the French players are indeed eligible to play for other countries, but I’d be mindful about saying that the team was ‘basically all made up of players from its colonies and not France’. It’s quite reminiscent of some reactionary talking points, and it’s also just not entirely true, since all but two of the players in last year’s World Cup squad were literally born in France.
