Maybe 5% of the female population watches football.

And the products they are selling in those commercials are generally things men buy.

I'm not offended or triggered by it, I'm just confused by it.

It's like a commercial on a chick show with men selling tampons, it doesn't make sense.

There are many groups over-represented in commercials. Your observation is certainly valid too.

Women have been in football related ads for decades. You want more men?

I don’t necessarily have a problem with it usually but it does seem like there are way more this year than previously.

Like yes there are women football fans. But don’t sit here and tell me there are 3-4 women getting together to grill out to watch a football game

Why are you starting this thread on the scoreboard during a Dawgs game?

So fat old men can convince themselves someday they'll leave their fat old wives for a hot chick that loves bringing beer to the couch and watching football

Are you serious? Women have been taking over college and pro viewers. Just look in the stands, or go to a tailgate. I know more women with NFL season tix than men.

A simple Google…


NFL and American Football Viewership

• Fan Base Percentage: Women and girls make up approximately 46% of the total NFL fanbase.
• Big Game Viewership: Women account for about 46% to 49% of the total Super Bowl television audience.
• Growth Drivers: Viewership among young women and female demographics has continued to rise sharply, boosted by high-profile cultural moments, wider league marketing, and broad television accessibility.

I have not noticed; I’m guessing because I don’t care. My wife is proudly in that 5%.

Because straight men like looking at pretty women.
