Why did your comment make me think of the awful Ramsey Bolton and Sansa from Game of Thrones.
While that may be true, I’d personally go with the theory that their sex life is very boring and vanilla, and that’s why he’s going outside of the marriage to get his abuse kink on. Because it wouldn’t be “proper” for him to do all these depraved, abusive things to a “good, honorable Christian wife,” but it’s totally…
Someone asked me if I thought he really had a sex addiction, and I said, “no...I think he’s a human.”
As much as I can’t stand this guy, he doesn’t need “treatment”. This is what happens sometimes when your family expects you to fulfill a role that is perhaps not what you want for your life. This guy ISN’T about family values, being married etc. And that’s fine. But the pressure of his family and church’s expectations…
When I go to musical theater, the dancers and other stage performers are what I pay to see. They are typically near the top of their profession and are the draw.
So here’s a question. Why would you work a part-time job that expects full-times hours on minimum wage?
Doubt this will make it out of the grey, but these complaints are really a disservice to feminism. These women get tons of benefits they likely wouldn’t get or couldn’t afford otherwise. They will likely get taken on expensive photo shoots to tropical destinations. They get access to floor seats for every home and…
That was a lot of words to write and not even defend your title. How are cheerleaders underpaid exactly? The teams make more money nearly every year. The fans pay these steep prices game after game. What it comes down to is perceived value and it sounds to me like cheerleaders know how it all works. They protest in…
Lets not forget these girls get treated to all expense paid vacations to resorts we can only dream about. To be part of calendar shoots and lounge in tropical vacations. Comparing these people to those in nail salons who are truly closer to servants is an embarrassment. People can make their own choices. If 400 people…
There is no possible way to be underpaid for a voluntary, recreational job that has very little fan support. I don’t get paid anything at all to play rec softball because nobody would pay to see me. If I got minimum wage to do it, however, I’d be elated. Sure fans enjoy looking at cheerleaders, but game attendance…
Exploitation
Then release them from their chains and shackles! My God! Tell Senator McCain. He’ll want to bomb every sports franchise in ‘Murica and make all cheerleaders NATO allies.
I was a HS cheerleader with a girl who went on to teach dance classes and was a Dallas Cowboys Cheerleader and then later a Laker Girl. She recently opened up her own dance studio and seems to be very successful. Some people just love dancing and performing.
“Exploitation of cheerleaders is prevalent across professional sports.”
Do you think most of the women do this because they love dancing and cheering, or are they looking to get their foot in the door to be the next Paula Abdul or find the right rich man to marry? I’d imagine cheerleaders meet a lot of rich, powerful men who might give them an audition or other opportunity they might not…
So is this a continuing story, or did it just end abruptly with no resolution
Oh, Jesus. So when ESPN retaliates and finds someone at Amazon willing to be bought, are we all going to know what kind of sex toys Deadspin employees prefer?
It actually took me a full minute to realize what I was looking at.
Somewhat unrelated note.
