Do you think a girl dunking it is cool?

Question

OK so you rarely see it in high school basketball but I'm 5'11" and i can dunk it. There's only three guys on our varsity boys team that can dunk it, so if i do get the chance in a game, should i go for it or do you think that people will just laugh? (o ya and if your a guy, is it attractive if a girl can dunk, even if you can't?)

Answer 1

I'm glad I read past the title to your description.

If you're asking me do I think a random girl dunking is cool? I'd say eh sure, but not really mean it, because I mean you saw the NBA slam dunk contest this week right? How is anything else going to compare to that? Thats why I get annoyed when people ask me to dunk, I'm just a spare 6-6 white guy who can barely dunk good anymore. And even if you take me for example back when I could dunk okay, it was usually in a game or something and I was dunking over somebody. So the garden variety of Candace Parker dunking in the open floor is not so much the Sportscenter highlight they make it out to be.

Now, if you're asking me if I think it is cool YOU can dunk, I say Hell Yes it is. First of all you shouldn't worry about what guys will think, you shouldn't worry about what anyone else thinks about you. I know easier said than done, but its true. But if you're 5-11 than most of the guys you'd be dating will be 6 ft or taller and most likely they could dunk too they probably wouldn't feel threatened and probably think it was cool or even cute that you could dunk. And I also think that you should not self impose limits like that on yourself you should try and be the best you can be. Don't hold back, if you get a chance FLUSH IT!!!! being able to dunk at 5-11 is incredible, show it off a little come on have some fun out there on the court now and again.

Answer 2

You should definitely dunk it if you get a good opening. People could laugh but f em', you got talent if you can dunk at only 5'11". I'm a guy and I don't necessarilly think that a girl that can dunk is attractive but I do find athletic girl attractive.

Answer 3

If you get the chance, slam it home girl.
If you get a dunk you will join the likes of Candice Parker and Lisa Leslie, two of the greatest players in the game, both college and pro.
You dunk in a game, the crowd will explode and your teammates will get so pumped, it will be awsome.
Don't worry about wether it's attractive or not, if your ballin your ballin.
I doubt Candice Parker cares if its a turn off to any guys, she wants to win, that's the bottom line.

Answer 4

i think its pretty cool that you can dunk at 5 11. i think you should do it as often as possible. i personally am attracted to girls who show interest in sports especially basketball and i think its hotter if she can beat me or dunk, so yea maybe you will a few guys or something.

Answer 5

If you can do it go for it. People only laugh because they dont have the balls to try it. As far as being attractive, i dont think your more or less attractive if you can or cant dunk. So go for it and to people that laugh if you miss, tell them to kiss your ***.

Answer 6

OK im a guy FYI
If your on a fastbreak and the games not on the line go for it beb cuz if ya got it ya got it but remembah only if fastbreak ya dont want everyone hatin ya if the games on the line good luck!

Answer 7

This is retarted. Candace Parker is practically a celebrity because she's a chick and can throw down the shittiest dunks I've ever seen. I'm 6'6 and I can dunk, but at 5'11 I would bet my mortal life you can't dunk on a 10 foot rim.

Answer 8

That absolutely rocks! Dunk it every chance you get! :)

Answer 9

I wouldn't worry about it being attractive, that sounds like an awsome ability and I'd definately show it off.

Females still spend too much time worrying about being attractive - I'd much rather be valued for what I can do.

Answer 10
