New “Lady Ball” Football Which Caters To “A Woman’s Ability” Is Not Going Down Well

Now we can play football, too!  Vom. Whoever invented the new "lady ball", a football specially designed for super-fragile little women who have dreams of playing sport, is a douche. Not to be confused with the controversial #ladyballs ovarian cancer campaign (or some sort of sex toy), this is just basically a pink ball. With ladyball written on it. BUT these guys know that women aren't dumb enough to buy something geared at them just because it's pink, so they have honoured our intelligence by providing us with three scientific reasons that we need this ball in order to play.

1. Soft-touch for a woman's grip.
2. Eazi-play for a woman's ability.
3. Fashion-driven for a woman's style.

These are not our words. This is literally what it says on the site. Breath. We are hoping that this is some sort of joke - we're not sure yet as the account just popped up on Twitter today, but it really, truly, doesn't seem like it is. Either way, peeps aren't happy.

If anyone wants me I'll be under my desk weeping at the Ladyball and its "EAZI-PLAY: FOR A WOMAN'S ABILITY".

@ElaineEdwards @chip_daley Also Ladyball sounds like something for doing pelvic floor exercises. — Lisa Carey (@msleedy) January 13, 2016
