Nice vid, really good technique for one so young. He switches hold well. His type was the worst in kid tourneys where you had to use a subdivided mat. They can use up alot of space when they are executing well.

He would destroy any girl he faced.

The bright side it would be quick.

Of course, but if it happens with an audience and a referee my first thoughts are it’s either a porn movie or divorce court, not high school wrestling.

Nothing malicious, just playing the game to win. Naturally I had absolutely NO problem with his assessment of the situation.

Except that his grandmother was right; the situation should not have arisen. Girls should not play boys (men) in varsity athletics. It's just not right, for reasons civilized people have understood for 3000 years and more. The people who are pushing this are Gramscian long-marchers and they're doing it to screw up society.

Ixnay to the original question.

The headgear required is a show stopper for me...

Besides some of those holds might bring on an undesired erec...stimu...uhhhh, well...you know...

Of course I never wrestled...But I have seen enough WWF (or whatever the letters of the year they are) to know the best things are the “round card girls”...

And that called Wraslin’!!!

Yes, she may have been right using YOUR logic.
BUT she wasn’t thinking along those lines.
She is of the ‘why waste time keeping score’, I don’t care if ‘my kid’ is fat and faces the wrong direction in right field, he has just as much right to play as anyone else etc etc etc.

Her ‘motive’ is not quite as clear as you put it.

And, oh yes, I do know how she thinks, I put up with her for over 40 years until I ‘parted ways’ with her and her New England (MASS) train of thought.

<: <: I ‘kept her around’ because she was a perfect ‘white out’ for my tinnitus. <: <:
