As A Man How Are You NOT Watching Love Island?

Since I started watching Love Island, I’ve gotten a lot of “as a man, why are you watching Love Island?” type of questions. But instead of wasting my time answering that low testosterone nonsense, I flip it right back and ask, “As a man, how are you not watching Love Island?”

I don’t know if you’ve ever seen the show, but let me break it down for you, it’s the straightest show on television. The girls on there? Absolutely stunning. The challenges and outfits they wear? Nothing short of elite. This show isn’t just for the girls, it’s just as much for the boys. You’re telling me I get six episodes a week, all summer long, filled with hot girls in bikinis, wild drama, and non-stop entertainment and somehow I’m the weird one for watching?

Look, I get it. Some people are die-hard baseball fans and can’t get enough of that dinosaur of a sport, but I’ll be real with you, I’d rather watch an hour of Love Island than sit through nine innings of a 1-0 snoozefest. It’s more entertaining, it’s more dramatic, and honestly, it’s a lot easier on the eyes.

But the best part is watching Love Island is practically free game when it comes to women. It’s like knowing ball, but for relationships and drama. You know how a girl who starts name dropping guys in the league and their stats instantly becomes the most interesting person in the room to a bunch of sports guys? That’s what it’s like when you’re the guy who can hold a conversation about Love Island. Instant icebreaker. Good banter. And suddenly, you’ve got yourself a seat at the table with women who otherwise wouldn’t give you the time of day.

Newsflash, every girl is watching Love Island. So why wouldn’t you? It doesn’t get easier than this. It’s literally just hot people, chaos, and flirting, what’s not to love?

So, once again, let me ask you this, as a man, how are you not watching Love Island?
