Friends and girl football plays

Lynn used the show Friends as a bedtime event for years.  How she could go to sleep with all the jokes, outlandish behavior and laugh track I don't know.  Lately, we have been watching the show on Netflix, where they stream the shows in the intended order.  The Nickelodeon shows jumped around and they terminated the show before the ending bit. So, seeing them in order and getting the final scene after the credits is a pleasure.  Seeing me react to jokes and twists in the plot or character behavior tickles her, too.


Yesterday, we saw an episode where all six characters played football, as Monica and her brother used to when they were kids.  Eventually, players were reassigned to make one team all guys and the other all girls. Phoebe expressed doubts that mere girls could succeed against guys but she invented a new strategy, never seen when the Packers play the Bears.  As an opposing player is running toward the end zone, Phoeb opens her blouse and exposes her breasts in the direction of the runner. The sight transfixes the runner and makes him an easy target. She works this maneuver more than once and it gives the girls an edge.


I am interested in when and how women can mesmerize men with their bodies or expressions with eyes, face, gestures, glances or words of interest in being touched or smooching or making love.  It seems that mere suggestions of the possibility of interest are enough to interrupt men's thought processes, deflect them from their own goals, and weaken their wills. I can see that the business could be tricky.  One wouldn't want to enrage the target, who normally would be physically stronger than the woman.


The whole business seems asymmetrical in most cases since women do not seem to vulnerable in the same way to physical displays or their possibility.  Do women try to see male genitals when men go to the bathroom? Can a woman use "revenge porn", pictures of a nude or semi-nude man, on social media to punish a man for breaking up?
