MIXED SEX WRESTLING

The WWF has done well, however, with their angles with Chyna. They have given her a chance to move slowly up the ranks and built angles around here while not at the expense of Triple H. She has made angles for herself and wrestled men in arguably some very good matches. Same could be said about Sable. They built angles around her but this time they were at the expense of her husband Marc Mero. Now we all know what happened with Mero. Because of his wife's popularity, he was used as a way to enhance her ring skills, which she sorely lacked. Then we have Debra, who is not a wrestler but at one time held the women's title. I see that as degrading the women's title. But some people say that the women's title was only used as a prop so the WWF would have a reason to put Sable on TV more and more. Now Ivory holds the women's title. Now Ivory is a credible wrestler who we can also see can work the mic and give decent interviews. I think they are going in the right direction with Ivory except they have too much time between her interviews and psuedo matches with planted women wrestlers. They need to have consistency. Or else women wrestlers are gonna fade away to being just valets.Wrestling contests between men and women strike symbolically at the heart of the compact that should govern relations between the sexes. Mixed-sex contests desensitize boys to the need to behave with respect toward girls at all times. In addition, they promote a double standard that is sure to prompt cynicism and resentment on the part of male wrestlers. Boys know instinctively that it's unfair to permit one wrestler (the girl) to choose whether she wishes to grapple intimately with a member of the opposite sex, while forcing the other (the boy) to do so against his will.
