To me men's soccer RPF is always king. Sorry hockey lads but you are wearing too much gear and missing too many teeth to be yaoi-worthy

I used to watch Match of the Day every week as a teen. I have no interest in football as such, LOL.

I hadn't thought about how the features of different sports might affect their RPF appeal. I guess while ice hockey does have these drawbacks, it also comes with a certain physical aggression that could be seen as hot.

Wow!

I could see the rivalry potential there, for sure!

I sometimes read hockey just because some fic writers I was following anyway write it. I really don't even watch hockey.

It's called football.

*originally called soccer to differentiate from rugby, and then Britain started only using football for shits and giggles

Yes! In some countries, it's called football. In other countries, it's called soccer. Fun fact, there are many words and idioms that differ between regions! Glad you could learn something today :)

Yeah I wanted to call it that but it might've confused the US-centric comm. I just wanted an easy way to avoid mistaking it with braindamage hand-egg.

If you look up the famous hug, the Mbappe x Giroud slash fanfic writes itself

I mean, in general, men's soccer produces some real attractive guys/shipping fodder

(Anonymous) 2025-12-15 04:26 am (UTC)(link)
I'm not in either fandom but OP's logic checks out

(Anonymous) 2025-12-15 05:06 am (UTC)(link)
I've been reading hockey forever and - thankfully - people tend to ignore the teeth thing.
