My fiance' and I were out shopping at Target when we came across this:
Yep, you guessed it-- Sports equipment. For Girls. And what's more-- IT'S ALL FUCKING PINK!!! All I could think is "Congratulations, Wilson Sports, you've gone too far." Not one girl I know in this day and age ever would have used this shit, nor would any child I know. In fact, any athletically inclined girl would take one look at this shit and want to kick the designer in his (because no WOMAN would ever pander to girls like this) fucking balls so hard that his grandchildren double over in pain. They all fucking know that if a GIRL wants to play sports like BOYS do they can use THE SAME FUCKING GEAR!!! The only things that are PHYSICALLY AND DIMENSIONALLY DIFFERENT for girls from what boys use are the protective undergarments and pads-- and as well they should be! But a football works better for a girl because it's pink? RRRRRRRIIIIIIIIIGHT. And before you say "But dude, it's little girls' gear!!!" Look again. The mitts in comparison to the balls equate to about a 12 year-old girl's hand size. By this point in a girl's life she's already decided whether or not she would like to try sports. Hell, I was getting beaten at sports by all the tomboys in my neighborhood at that age. So in closing I offer a bit of advice to all you parents out there. If you have a daughter who is expressing an interest in sports, don't get her THIS shit. Get her the same stuff that you'd get your son. Pads, undergarments, that's fine, but if you get her this froofy pink candy-ass gear she'll just lose interest in sports, whereas if you'd just not pandered and treated her like any boy interested in sports, she may have enjoyed the experience greatly. If she ASKS for it, fine, but otherwise you have been warned.

i saw this on cuteoverload.com and thought of you.
She'd have a fit if I was to buy her pink sport stuff.... Her Sensei uses a hideous florescent pink belt as a loaner for anyone who forgot their belt...needless to say, they only screw that up once
