o k LISTEN
where are the documentaries about the fans of sports teams? you know those dudes that tailgate for hours outside stadiums, spend thousands of dollars on memorabilia, know every single thing about their favorite player, literally get into fist fights with fans of opposing teams, binge drink and get angry when their team loses?????? like where’s the documentary showing how crazily obsessed they are??????? there isn’t one bc the majority of the people doing those things are MEN not only teenaged boys but gROWN ASS MEN
but that’s okay, that’s encouraged, whole days, parades, and stores are DEDICATED to this obsession with sports
but when a girl likes a boyband and does /the same things/ as boys do over sports teams it’s CRAZY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! it’s A SICKNESS!!! WE GOTTA INTERVIEW DOCTORS ABOUT THIS OBSESSION WHAT GOES THROUGH THESE FEMALE BRAINS!!!!!! WHY DO THEY ACT LIKE THIS!!!!!!!!!!!
the media is horribly misogynistic towards one direction fans AND also incredibly misinformed bc there are PLENTY of boy fans as well.
i’m not saying 1d fans don’t cross lines but i am saying look at what’s going on and realize the only reason these things are said and these documentaries are made is bc one direction is marketed towards young girls and not young guys and gOD FORBID a girl is as passionate about something as a male counterpart is about something else.
