Darts: Women need to invade this male arena. Gary Anderson's stunning victory at the PDC World Championship final was brilliant moment for big darts fan Alice Arnold. Here she explains why more women should break into this male-dominated crowd.I swear, back when the Vikings were raping and pillaging, there was probably an idiot proto-feminist complaining that they didn't see why they didn't get to go raping and pillaging too. Feminists literally want to ruin ABSOLUTELY EVERYTHING for men. That is their entire objective.
Darts is becoming more and more popular, the audiences are growing both at the live events and on the television but there are elements that alienate women to such a degree that they stay away in droves. Do we really want to see scantily clad girls parading for the sponsors? Do we want to risk getting pints thrown over us as men push past to get to their seats.
The Lakeside event actually has a women’s darts competition too. The standard is rising and they hope to increase its popularity amongst players and spectators alike but there is a long, long way to go.
Who gives even the smallest damn what they want to see? It's time for men to start fighting back and demanding our right to see scantily clad girls parading for the sponsors at knitting and equestrian events.

Even the male space of warfare is being invaded by women in the frontlines like the YPG and PKK. Advancing largely on the backs of extensive US airstrikes that are easy to implement in cities where militants get easily bunched up.
Men let them invade all sorts of male spaces...what's going to stop them now unless men start growing a pair and say 'no'.

You apparently haven't seen the History Channel drama, Vikings.
The History Channel
We've Just Given Up
Darts have limited appeal. It is no more popular than bowling that has peaked. Feminists have jumped the shark in the latest declaration. They already want to make changes to lessen its appeal.
You mean Vikings in History Channel is fiction? Darn it...
But seriously though, I was looking forward to it...what a disappointment.
These idiots don't even realise the inconsistencies. In one episode a woman left her husband with her son and married another dude. This guy slapped her around and the music all dramatic, conveying how terrible it is that this poor woman is abused....just a few scenes later these warrior women are kicking male ass though...
And yet they still remain silent on Selective Service. What a shock.
I've played league darts in Manhattan for 12 years, and at least here, the sport has always welcomed women. I've know and played with and against several women who have been nationally ranked. Not a feminist among them. Feminists wouldn't last long anyway, so let them try to "invade" as players.
But Ms. Arnold wasn't talking about that. She's just a spectator. It's not "darts" she wants to police, it's the male spectators in Britain. Good luck with that. Normally, I'd decry the waste of beer, but hopefully at the next match someone will tip a pint on her head.
And a shout out to my friend Jimmy Widmayer of the Manhattan Dart League and NY PDSL, the lone American, who is playing today in the second round at Lakeside.
notice that when talking about the 'excitement' of Darts, the first thing *she* does is start name dropping and talking about how she sits VIP.
"A casual mention of the darts on my Twitter timeline gets an extraordinary response. My female followers are envious. They wish they were at the darts too. Do they? Do they really?
I have to declare when we go to the darts we are in the VIP area, kindly invited by friends with influential contacts. We’re sitting at tables only a stone’s throw away from Prince Harry. "
'influential contacts' and being near royals, that's all she really cares about. the rest is just window dressing.
i can see you're all shocked.

No different than "pink October" with the NFL.
It's a matter of ensuring men always defer to women's sensibilities, in the remote chance one might possibly walk through the area, if only for a moment.

I'd pay to see that. The entertainment value alone would be worth the price of admission.
And it seems the feminist interest is usually piqued at the height of popularity, otherwise, they cannot be bothered.
WRE?! Leave the men alone!!
The way to the F'ist heart is complicated. They are the walking dead, void of a heartbeat and real blood. Pure acid runs their lives. Demanding dart nonsense is toxic, unless they are wearing bikinis. The men must create a complete hell for them. Disable the womens bathroom, its the only way, next, disable the mens.
I demand every feminist take the trash out, work in sanitation and start fixing their damn cars. Fems are the laziest, selfish, narcissistic failed worldview on the planet. The scourge is F'is.
I've always felt that the steeplechase would benefit greatly from a lot more boobage.

Yes, this is the "need more girls in programming" nonsense again. Dart players, just like programmers, would love to have some chicks around, either watching or playing with them. The chicks don't want to be there because it's kind of a nerdy game played in dark, smoky rooms and you have to be able to do multiplication like 301-(x/3) in your head. Even fat guys can play it. No woman wants anything to do with that scene, unless (as with gaming) she's there to be with a particular guy.
Change it to make it more girly -- they like cricket better than 301 because there's no math, but maybe change 15-20 to celebrity faces or something; make the darts less pointy (someone could get hurt); and turn games into a social event where the dart-playing is a sideshow -- and women will play a little. It just won't be darts anymore.
Actually, I just realized they did that already: around here it's called the cornhole game. They throw beanbags (often filled with corn, hence the name) through holes in a board. There's still some skill involved, but a lot less than with darts, especially if everyone's drinking. And it was created right from the start to be a co-ed game, with women organizing parties around it and designing beanbags with a team logo on them. Basically a low-competition, no-talent-required cross between darts and horseshoes, perfect for women and the men they drag along with them.
But they'll still have to destroy darts, because inclusiveness.
Bob, I totally thought that was going to be a video of well-endowed chicks riding steeplechase. I am disappoint.

League here is singles 501/doubles cricket/doubles 501 (double in/out). If the chicks can't handle the math, they don't last long. Or they go to soft-tip boards where the scoring is done electronically. Most of the chicks who do play are generally pretty cool. If you can't handle the steel-tip and whiskey, stay out...
Who knows how it will play out in the UK, but I doubt it will get much traction.
Do we really want to see scantily clad girls parading for the sponsors?
Yes. Next question.
I belong to a social club that does not allow women to participate except for our Super Bowl party. Most of us are still married to our wives. Traditional ways are best!
"Modern western women, whether or not they call themselves 'feminist,' literally want to ruin ABSOLUTELY EVERYTHING for men. That is their entire objective."
Fixed.
I found this hilarious, considering my wife just returned from a combination knitting/equestrian farm show.
