Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.

Our Rules:

  1. Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.

  2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.

  3. Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.

  4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

  5. No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.

I def agree that no one should knock a (harmless) hobbie, but I didn't read the post as being mean. My reading was more that it's genuinely thinking it's cute that some guys get so excited about sports. At least, it's better than the "ugh all men care about is sports" kind of angle.

Seems pretty blatantly infantilizing
