I'm not making a fucking QCS thread for this but seriously can we take a harder stance on Kiwifarms freaks like this guy, Jesus Christ seriously, you used to be better at knocking these creeps down. I guess ADTRW mods aren't responsible like GBS mods are.

Wrestlerager, AIW's annual show outside a Cleveland punk bar, was today (or I guess yesterday, at this hour). I always love seeing people watching it from the porch roof of the building next door.

To be fair, a lot of these chuds do try and fake consistency by saying they think Rey vs Brock or Show is dumb too. Of course they never post about it on socials because

I don't like the idea of men's VS women's real sports like Football or Basketball, but I think men's VS women's wrestling is usually pretty cool... As long as it's not that really weird lucha underground man brutalizing a woman thing.

I don't like seeing intergender combat sports, fictitious or no, because we're still doing our loving damndest as a society to tell men it's not okay to beat their wives or girlfriends and normalizing that poo poo on TV is a huge step backward. I also just don't like watching it and it makes my stomach churn.

Austin Aries is a loving idiot, though, and I want a woman to beat his rear end publicly as he talks about his testicles making him strong, so my brain is a place of contrasts.

Yeah, but it's one thing to have Dudley Boyz powerbombing women through tables and all the rampant misogyny of early ROH and another to have indergender wrestling where it's just presented as an athletic contest between equals. It's been years since I've seen it but some of the stuff Candice LeRae did in PWG was great. Sara Del Ray in Chikara was exactly the same. She was just a great wrestler who happened to be a woman.

SDR was in some of the best matches in CHIKARA history and most of them were intergender.

It's one of those things where it can be done right and wrong. One sided matches where the woman has to be the underdog and sells for 90% of it are gross. Matches where men and women are presented and treated as equals is really loving cool. Wrestling is fake and a power fantasy and "being as good as the boys" is a really common story trope and power fantasy.

I totally get this mode of thinking, though I also think there's a big difference between two jacked people like Tessa Blanchard and another dude wrestling in what is posed as athletic competition, and a person beating their defenseless spouse

If someone's argument against intergender wrestling is "it makes me physically ill to see" and "it reinforces negative behaviors in the general population" I'm gonna go ahead and guess no amount of excellent matches done correctly are going to suddenly make them not physically ill or make the societal issue go away.

But I feel like that’s 15% of the people who object to intergender wrestling and the other 85% are the DAE ITS NOT REALISTIC folks.
