Look, as a guy of the hetero persuasion -- I get the hot, semi-naked women thing. But what I clearly don't understand is why this strange behavior comes out every four years associated with football and almost never inbetween. Never with Champions League. Never with the Euro or Copa America, or even the Confed Cup.
It's freakishly bizarre why people always do this... it would be as if people started posting baby pictures every Summer Olympics.

I see what goes on daily in the NSFW thread. But somehow journalists and the male public has equated the World Cup equated with a strip show -- that's what I don't get. No other threads on these forums over the past decade have this cycle where, like clockwork, chick pix start pouring out on schedule for no obvious reason.

It's the world cup. It's famous for a party atmosphere that no other sporting event can match which, in turn, attracts a lot more slappers that probably know very little about what they come to actually watch.
But I feel totally manipulated by the media in this. Like we're being conditioned to buy light beer like a bunch of sheep who will do their bidding as long as they push the right levers on us, Clockwork Orange-style. Slide the meat under the cell door - it's that time - and they'll lap it up like ignorant dogs.
If it was only a "world" focus either. The chicks are typically all Europeans and South Americans. Heaven forbid if any of them happen to be African or black, let alone Asian.
I'm not much of a conspiracy theorist, but when the parade of "WAG" stories and photos of girls in bikinis on sports blogs comes out every four years at World Cup time, my suspicion meter goes through the roof.
He's from before my time. Was the captain in that 58' title. My dad used to say he was the best defender he has seen. When i was a kid i remember watching tapes of that World Cup and he impressed me the most.

Because it's not us posters who take photos of these chicks, we just post 'em occasionally. If they made best ass for CL every year we'd probably see that too.
Why do people do it? It's just marketing, it gives more attention for the whole cup. It's what people always want to see. Larissa Riquelme got famous at the last WC, just because one photo appeared where she had a phone between her breasts, now she's a model or something.
This is a global competition when the whole world follows, unlike others that you named. Gotta sell the news. And you always know things that are easy to sell.
