Agreed. I am amazed at how many posters think this is a sexual interaction rather than simply a competition between people of the opposite sex.

Ok. Your saying that wrestling, a sport which is all about physical touching grabbing, groping, pulling, etc etc, is something that males (who God created to be attracted to females) should be able to just focus on the competition aspect of it?

I believe that when the boy faces the girl on the mat, in any position, he is more worried about losing than sexual interaction. If he has trouble with that, what does it say about him as a boss who has women as subordinates.

Look, I understand both sides of the argument, lack of girl programs tanking the boy’s programs (completely bogus), women in men’s sports (but no men allowed in women’s sports), religious convictions, etc., and in many cases, it might occur where certain wrestling interaction appears beyond the rules. But that can occur in all sports coed or otherwise.

I guess the general notion that girls should not compete in the boy sport simply because the boy might get aroused, have a fragile ego, or errantly/intentionally make questionable contact, are weak positions. Been fun.
