If you haven’t heard, women don’t like sports. According to a recent sexist t-shirt, at least.
According to a t-shirt sold by clothing company Live Love Gameday, girls who love baseball and football are rare unicorns that men should “wife up” ASAP. And it’s making people on the Internet rightfully angry.
The Dallas-based retailer also sells shirts that read “I vow to always love you, even during baseball season” and “I vow to always love you during hockey season.”
The Huffington Post reached out to Live Love Gameday for comment but did not hear back by the time of publication.
With women making up 44 percent of the NFL’s fan base, according to data from ESPN and the U.S. Census. The shirt, aside from being sexist is simply wrong. It’s not that rare for a lady’s favorite day of the week to be game day.
To top it off, the MLB team with the most social and active female fans is the Texas Rangers with women making up 50 percent of the team’s social fan base — right in Live Love Gameday’s backyard.
Twitter users responded accordingly to the sexist shirt slogans:
Women play sports, women like sports, women are sports fans. It’s that simple.
