Stop Betting on Dildos Being Thrown at WNBA Games, You Fucking Creeps

Several dildos were thrown, a couple of arrests were made, and by Wednesday afternoon, one distasteful sports betting site claimed that betting on dildos had surpassed betting on who’d win the game.

      It’s funny from the outside, but when you actually give it thought it’s super fucked up and degrading.

      Like the article said, one time was funny. Multiple times is harassment and a reminder of how women have historically been treated.

        Yeah, there is too much baggage for it to be properly funny with the WNBA.

        Now the regular NBA on the other hand, no misogynist baggage with fake dicks there. Much funnier place to throw one.

                I mean when Arrest, Rodman, Wallace, and such were around online betting would have been golden. $40 says Indiana punches a ref when they play the Pistons.

                NFL: $30 says Owens gets fined. Burfict gets suspended and Pacman Jones gets into an argument with a coach for the other team on the field.

        Equality wood be Dildos for the NBA games too.

        And I’d probably actually watch it if there was a chance of Shaq getting smacked by a double ended.

        Basketball is boring to me to watch. I get the fun in playing it but not in watching it.

        Edit: I’m keeping that typo

        Wobbly Sausage

        IDK, the original article is sort of in this Schrödinger zone. On the one hand, yes, it’s harassing and you shouldn’t make dickhead jokes where the principle of the joke is basically “lol they’re women.” On the other hand, people can do funny things sometimes and be dickheads, it’s part of living in a free society. Definitely trying to crack down on it and tell them they can’t is just going to spark this universal human impulse to say “Okay I hit paydirt here let’s double down because now it’s really funny if it happens again.”
