When I was 16 if a girl looked at me a certain way I had a biological reaction that was embarassing in public. My hormones were raging and any wrestling around with a girl resulted in an appendage so swollen that it hurt.
Have 16 year olds changed that much in 43 years?

“Bring it on”
Christ.
I’ll “bring” an anti-tank weapon.
while watching a little league baseball game with 12-13 yr olds, there was a girl on the opposing team,
= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = =
My 13yo grandson’s opposing team had a girl on it...she wasn’t bad and what with the league etc she probably earned her spot on the team.
She was playing 2nd base and did a full body ‘block’ on it (a very foolish move) and the kid that slid in came up short on his slide.
My grandson, very matter of factly stated “If she or anyone tries to block me out like that, I am going through her”.
His grandmother (my x) chastised him - you just can’t go go after her like that...My daughter, to her credit “Mom, leave him alone...she is on the field, obviously doesn’t know how to play the position and I would also take her out”.
Nothing malicious, just playing the game to win.
Naturally I had absolutely NO problem with his assessment of the situation.
What happens if the girl is losing, and claims an “inappropriate” hold of some sort? Could the guy be deemed a sex offender?
And wouldn’t a decisive victory make the guy look like a “brute” anyway?
Sounds like there’s no way for the guy to win.
Society is very, very sick for us to even be arriving at this point.
Well then I hope you’re bigger than the raw-boned Jethro Bodine, because she routinely kicked his behind.
PS Where’s a picture of Andy Kaufman when we need one? :)
That depends on the circumstances now. Say they have had a little wine, the lights are low, candles are burning and Barry White is playinmg on the speakers - I can that ending in some rasslin’ around.
There were 4 boys and 3 girls in my family growing up on the farm.
We always wrestled our sisters but if they got us in leg scissors, we were done for.
My sisters regularly beat up bullies for us.
Collective common sense dies a little more each day.
As another high school wrestler, I agree.
Nobody wanted more contact with girls than I at that age, but there’s no way in hell I would have wanted to wrestle competitively with them.
If she gets hurt, you’re the bad guy.
If you touch her in the wrong place, you’re the bad guy.
If she beats you, the other guys will never let you live it down.
If you beat her, the win is thought of as a guy who beat a girl.
If you refuse to engage in it, you get ripped to shreds across the nation in print. Your family gets scrutinized, you’re religion gets trashed, and you are are thought of as a neanderthal.
Someone point out one activity where women could be so grossly stigmatized across the board, an it not involve a massive class action law suit, and yet here the guy is the the focus of the venom and anger for objecting.
No. As a girl, let me also state for the record, no girls/women on submarines, aircraft carriers, destroyers or in battle zones. I believe in equal rights but there are just some things and some places that are NOT appropriate for girls/women.
I agree with you especially on the part that there are some places that are not approbiate for girls, ladies or women
Only in the back seat of a GTO.
Depends on you voting age I suppose.
7-14 No Way
15-21 Absolutly
22-35 What does she look like?
36-45 No Way
46-59 Absolutly
60-80 Check with your Doctor First - But Duh!
I hit the only girl I ever saw in my time on the mound. I was 11.
I can still remember my dad telling me from the bench not to throw any differently. Well, she was really tall and had ridiculously long arms. She was over the plate with those wings.
So, after 1 or 2 strikes, I decided I’d brush those arms off the plate. Wasn’t trying to hit her, just make her think twice.
Needless to say, my dad felt obliged to yell loud enough for the other side to hear: “I didn’t tell you to hit her!”.
I was never comfortable with it, but if I showed up for a game and learned that the opposing team had a woman playing on it, I wouldn't change the way I played.
There's no way I would support this kind of thing for high school sports, though.
Why? Are they allergic to Sea men?
These people do: The Frankfurt School and The Tavistock Institute
