Do guys find it more attractive when a girls into sports, playing or watching? I play football/soccer and always found some guys were a bit weird about it for some reason.

    Absolutely, some guys just really don’t like sports and some guys are crazy insecure about gender roles in hobbies, but generally most sport fans are down to find other sport fans in my experience. Look at all the old adorable couples at any game.

    Do guys find it more attractive when a girl is into sports

    girl is = girl’s

    (the ’ represents the i that is dropped)

    girl + plural (more than one) = girls

    It is very attractive especially if someone is really interested in the sport and is happy to tell about it.

    Different people find different things attractive. But most people find having similar interests attractive.

    I think it’s great. It is usually a guarantee that the woman is both in great shape and healthy

    It is pretty much a deal breaker for me. I spend too much time on a bike and need to share that with someone. If I wasn’t disabled after fighting a couple of SUV’s on a bike, I’d still be racing and riding around 200-400 miles per week. Even after a broken neck and back I still spend 3-7 hours per week on a bike and prefer to ride in the evenings. I don’t always need or want company on rides. It is mostly physical therapy for me now. So I need to ride a certain way that is not conducive to company now, but still it would be extremely beneficial for me to experience that with someone I care about and am equally supportive with.

    The hard part is that female cyclists are around 5-10% of the total hardcore market by comparison based on high end clothing and bicycle sales according to very large datasets like Giant and Shimano America (bunch of brands under that). I was a Buyer for a chain of bike shops for years where it was my job to know this stuff and gamble money stock stores accordingly. Female cyclists are rare, and usually in high demand if one is found.
