In my opinion, yes, they are. They perpetuate the idea of male closeness as being something bad. Yes, I get that even if the athletes were gay, having sweaty balls slapped on your forehead wouldn’t be the most pleasant thing. However, the designer is exploiting the fact that many straight men in the sports world find it gross to even touch another man.

On another note, Here are some bullet links that aren’t related.

+ My new desktop at work. I might actually make my own like this. It’s a great idea.
+ Backyard Torch. WANT.
+ Pretty Fire Extinguisher. WANT.
- Just say NO to another Stimulus Check.
