the rum soaked fist: internal martial arts forum

Any thoughts on the fella's.

Can we have this cast into the pit, or at least off topic?

Can't believe . . .
a) Someone would write such pap
b) Someone would share such pap
c) Anyone could possibly believe such pap

If you have a girl wrestle with a boy or girl vs girl, you might think it more sexual.


By moving the topic to BTDT, it did more justice that wrestling is more sexual than martial/combative. That is it is not martial art relevant.

Mind you I like Shuaijiao and have respects for Shuaijiao. Dont get me wrong, just stating the logic.

Trying too hard to be funny. Still more entertaining than most of the national enquirer style crap I've read lately.

Haven't read the article from the op yet but I just happened across this yesteday:

Seems like the "wrestling is gay" guy has some issues around his own manliness. EIther that or he just decided to label "male intimacy" as "homoerotic" so that his pics would be more controversial.

http://www.matbattle.com has something to say about that.

a) he is making money out of it.
b) because it's laughable.
c) only an idiot would believe it so stop being so dogmatic which only gives it added credibility by opposition.
I must be a real homosexual with all the wrestling that I did as a young man.

It doesn't get much gayer than wrestling!
