Wimblewhat? Or Theory #567: lesbians and sports

So, do you like tennis? she asks.
No, I say. Most spectator sports bore the shit out of me. Wait, that’s not quite correct. All spectator sports bore the shit out of me.
Have you ever played tennis?
Yes; too much running and grunting. Not ladylike. Being a creature of airy grace, I much prefer badminton.
Oh. I played tennis for years. Yes it is a game of running but I don’t recall ever grunting. I have a disturbing memory of playing badminton with my family as a young girl. My dad fell over trying to get the shuttlecock and in the tumble one of his balls squidged out of his shorts. I have been traumatised ever since and can no longer play or watch the sport.
Oh, the trauma!!
Yes. I think this is why I’m a dyke
.

I think there should be a warning on the shuttlecocks tube thing. ‘Playing this game might result in childhood trauma.’ Or more to the point ‘ Warning: Playing this game when not wearing tight enough underpants might affect your daughter’s sexuality.’

I can’t decide if that means sports is bad or you or not.

Wow. Those shorts are either much too loose or his balls were just ginormous! Or both. OK, were they hairy? Shit. Now I've got that image tattooed to the back of my retina. Thanks ever so....

But did he get to play the shot? that's the most important thing.
