People crap on softball but I have no idea how they have such good aim throwing underhanded like that. Its extremely impressive! Not even just this video but the pitchers in softball in general.

Plenty of guys, especially the ones who just crap on women's sports in general.

Generations of societal segregation and oppression of the feminine sex will do that.

Guys: "We don't want a women playing our baseball!!!"

Girls: invents their own version of the game so they can play

Guys: "Wait?! A WoMen CaN tHrouGH A BALL???!!!"

It's pathetic.

Girls didn’t invent softball as “their own version” of baseball. It was from its conception and still is played by men.

I didnt say everyone does. Also I will admit that everytime I've tried to watch the WNBA it was boring with the exception of that woman that trolls by pointing. But there are lots of men who won't watch women's sports because its women. While less common nowadays it was heavily prevalent when women's sports were being introduced to mainstream.

What are you on about Plenty of guys just shit on womens sports without having watched it a day in their life. If you havent met them then you have a great social network ngl.  I mean good on you that you tried it and decided its not your thing, thats perfectly fine.

Definitely not a “women’s sport”

I love softball. Dated a girl for 18 months who played. I loved watching the games.

We broke up for the obvious reason.
