I make no apologies, this post is just an excuse to get some pretty arses up on my blog. You ready? Good.
Milla (her again!) has questioned why women think rugby men are good looking. I feel it is my duty (and, I cannot lie, my pleasure) to use words and photos to explain the attraction.
Compelling argument one: variety is the spice of life
No matter how you like ‘em… tall, small, chubby, thin, there’s a rugby man for you out there somewhere. The diversity of the positions means that there are a huge range of different body shapes and sizes playing.
Compelling argument two: Real men
Unlike other sportsmen, rugby men rarely feel pain. They can carry on playing with head injuries, broken fingers, toes, ribs. This makes them manly. Fact.
Compelling argument three: they’re not footballers
They don’t fall over and pretend they’re hurt. They don’t argue with the ref. They don’t get paid far too much for doing bugger all. They don’t play football.
And surely that’s reason enough?
There are obviously lots of other reasons:
They’re generally all aminable chaps
They tend not to get involved in orgies
The game stays on the pitch
All problems in life can be solved by a beer
I’m slightly biased, I must admit, since N is very much a rugby man. However, having once dabbled with the football playing fraternity I can honestly say that a rugby man makes a much better boyfriend. For me. I’m not saying that all footballers are bad. I’m not saying that they don’t make good boyfriends. I am saying that I can’t imagine spending that much time with someone who obsesses over the wrong shaped ball.
Very funny.
BUT.
Reason one is pants. Since it extends to all types. They just happen to play rugby.
Reason two is kind of attractive, but again, flawed contest. Since they put themselves on the pitch (field? not court, I know THAT much, silly) then they don’t deserve ANY sympathy if they fall over and hurt themselves on it. Had they any sense, they would have been at home being useful.
argument three is, however, completely undeniable.
Milla… you’re so harsh – I thought they were very good reasons off the top of my head!
Reason one: Valid. In my experience, all other sportsmen look the same. Kind of willowy and greasy. Not so with rugby.
Reason two: Valid. They don’t get sympathy and they don’t care. Unlike me. Who wants sympathy but still doesn’t get it.
Reason three: I knew you’d see it my way
Ha ha! Balm to the soul of an ex-rugby man!
So right, every woman should have a rugy boy. and to tempt fate, make it a Welsh one !
Make that rugby, fool.
M – hello. Even ex-rugby men still count as lovely
Welcome gumpher – I agree, every woman should have a rugby boy but I draw the line at a Welshman. No woman could be that desperate
