10 Struggles Only Female Sports Fans Understand

1.) For some reason, we have to justify our love of sports.

Why do I justify something that I love? I love sports because I love sports, simple as that.

2.) People for some reason don't believe us when we say we do actually love sports.

I love them and it's the bottom of the hour right now, so SportsCenter is on and I wanna watch it.

3.) "You only like Team X because Player X is hot."

Yeah, some of my favorite players are hot, but my favorite players aren't based solely on looks. It's based on the most talented, best style, best on and off-court personality, etc.

4. ) Men try to explain the rules to us.

As if I don't know the rules. Dude, I know! I've read the rule book!

5.) "You're only watching the game because you're trying to impress a guy."

OHMYGOD, NO I'M NOT!! I actually want to watch the game, now move because you're blocking the tv.

6.) Don't tell me to go grab you a beer.


Don't say that to me unless you want all of the years of watching Clay Matthews' tackling form to be put to good use.

7.) These are some of the only fan-wear available for women.

I mean, c'mon man! Why would I want to wear team apparel that isn't even the team colors?

8.) "Can you name another player on the team besides the star?"


Yep. Wanna hear the starting lineup?

9.) Don't ask me if I watched the game, because I did.

Why would you think that I didn't? No, I actually want to the game. In fact, there is another game on right now and I will be actually pissed if you don't turn it on.

10.) I would rather watch the game than the Bachelor.


I love the Bachelor, but sports are my favorite thing and I would never pass up the opportunity to watch a game.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
