Am I clutching pearls unnecessarily?

[anotherNCmn]

Appear to be watching women's wrestling (not on purpose, telly left on while I was working)

There are children, maybe 8-11 ish being shown in the audience

Viper??? Plus size woman in fishnets and leotard has just bodyslammed Ayesha who is also in fishnets and leather

I'm thinking a) incredibly sexualised clothing to take your kids to go watch

And b) wtf if a serious injury happens? I know these things can be staged but how do you stage a plus size woman jumping and landing on stomach of a much slimmer woman?

It's not exactly martial arts where people are respectful is it? (Id happily take my primary school child to judo match etc)

Hear, hear, cornwall

Isn't it all choreographed panto type stuff?

It is, all scripted, pre-determined who will win etc etc, but they still are athletes, no way would I be able to stand in a ring and get thrown about or body slammed etc, and I hate wrestling because of the panto nature.

Shocked that an adult doesn't realise that wrestling is staged. I've known this since I was about 10 in the days of Hulk Hogan and the Undertaker

No it's the parents taking young boys to go watch that shocked me more

But they haven't taken those young boys to watch women in "sexy clothes" though have they? They've taken them to watch a sporting event.

I'm not disputing that the fishnets and leotard are designed to be "easy on the eye" but she's hardly got her nipples and fanjo out has she?

I'd have no issue with my 10yr old DS seeing a woman wearing that, I'm struggling to see the outrage, she's got nothing more on show than a woman at the pool.

A 8/9/10yr old will not connect such clothing as sexual..... DS is extremely mature for his age and knows all about the birds n bees but not on any given Sunday would he connect a leotard and fishnets with sex FFS.

Give your head a wobble OP.

I could get the right horn watching some men wrestling topless.

The Rock. Nuff said.

Wrestling is on of the sports were women wear more clothes than the men.

Every man's heart one day beats its final beat, his lungs breathe their final breath. And if what that man did in his life makes the blood pulse through the body of others, and makes them bleed deeper, than something larger than life, then his essence, his spirit, will be immortalized by the storytellers, by the loyalty, by the memory of those who honor him and make the running the man did live forever.
