"Partially 1. I will watch until it becomes too tense 
Oh no surely you can’t turn it off if it’s tense. "
I don’t turn it off. I get restless and do other things but leave the TV on in the background |

That’s why I put 1. As watch it too….that way I thought I would capture those that enjoy football too. I mean if I had not written that I guess I could be mistaken for being slightly sexist, or maybe if I’d written do the washing , clean the house look after the children or sit there and be quiet. I can only apologise for my game causing offence. |

Hello Mr Average 
I really couldn’t give a toss about the football but I may have to resort to watching it just so I can prepare for all the football related chat I’ll more than likely have to endure over the next few days.

Nah, putting watch too doesn't get away from the sexism in this:
1. Assumption that football is for men.
2. Assumption that all men like football
3. Assumption that if a woman doesn't she's going to either
A) do something 'from a beauty routine' like her hair or have a bath or
B) be really disrespectful of her (manly man) partner by trying to distract him by 'dressing up'
Not slightly sexist. Pretty god damn reeking of the stuff.
Men like football and women are just objects to look pretty and have sex with.

Well if I have come across that way then I apologise because that is not how it was meant. It was meant to be a bit of fun. My interest was in what women were doing because I wasn’t interested in what the men were doing, not because I assumed they were watching the football. Again I will apprise as I did to the other lady, if I have caused offence it was not meant |
