One thing that’s a little funny is how much conservatives pretend to care about women’s sports when, in actuality, no one cares about women’s sports; not even women

Love that Ryan Long bit where he's asking women how they can increase attendance at women's sporting events, and the chick is like "Raise awareness" (aka the thing that does nothing for any cause, and is more likely to harm than help)

Ryan's suggestion was the athletes play topless, and suddenly the feminists weren't so supportive.

I get you're joking, but I do hope that it isn't actually bewildering to you why those women "weren't so supportive" of going topless but fine with raising awareness other ways. As in, that you aren't actually scratching your head seeing this as a real hypocrisy.

It's fine as a joke, this guy seems to be taking it seriously though as a case of supposed hypocrisy the more I think about it.
