Women Fighting in the Ultimate Fighting Championship

[repenttokyo]

You're the one preaching from an agenda.
I fully support a woman's right to do anything she wants.
It doesn't mean I have to fake an interest when they do it or pretend to be entertained. I'm really tired of people and their fake outrage over stuff like this.

i definitely have an agenda. The difference between yours, mine, and those of some of the others in this thread, is that I am upfront about and aware of mine.

thanks for labeling my outrage fake though. because you clearly know me so well.

Guys, guys...

The person you're really angry at is Gary Bettman. Don't lose sight of that.

This and the whole Riley Sheahan thread trainweck, I'm starting to think we all have a little too much time on our hands.

I personally think women should be able to fight against the men, if they want.
Weight class restrictions in effect, of course.
I guess I'm just a woman's rights type of guy, so I would have no problem watching them take (legal) beatings from a man, from time to time - if they so choose to compete against men professionally.

Before I get blasted too hard... female police officers are trained to subdue male criminals who are often bigger and stronger, so why can't women fight against men in the UFC? Doesn't make sense to me.

If I'm an idiot, so be it.

What happens if say... GSP is too gentlemanly to hit a woman and refuses to fight one that wants to challenge him for his title? Too many social issues here to allow mixed sex MMA.

I dont agree with women fighting men. Women fighting women is OK with me, but lets keep the same gender fighting against each other.

They dont even cross-gender fight in the WWE and that stuff is fake.

[blayze]

it's tiresome to hear sexist, bullshit comments like yours from men who can't get their heads out of their own asses.

I've seen a lot of women's MMA from Carano to Cyborg and now Rousey and to me, it sure as hell isn't as entertaining as watching Silva or Bones.

I guess that makes me a huge sexist *hangs head in shame*

Chivalry is dead and everyone knows who killed it.

excellent, more latent sexism. i haven't posted here in a very long time, and it's kinda sad that this is what I come back to.

Take that back! WWE is not fake, it is real. I see it on tv all the time so it cant be fake, so there!

LOL! sorry to burst your bubble bud. Come with me, I have a little something to share with you about Santa Clause and the Easter Bunny too.

Santa and the Easter Bunny sometimes appear on WWE. So they are real.

True Dat! Dont forget about the Tooth Fairy. He will beat you up if you forget about him!

I see 10 inch cocks in porn all the time so that must be the norm... *checks inside his pants*... oh wait it is the norm, nevermind!

[Fast Tony DeNiro]

Pffft. There's no such thing as a gentleman anymore. Chivalry is dead and everyone knows who killed it. And that's fine by me.

If they want to fight men, let them fight men! Think of the ratings alone!!!

Gary Bettman!

He didn't write anything even remotely sexist or ignorant. He explained his position extremely well and countered all your points.

PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT: No women's rights were harmed in the making of The Comish's comments

I've read through this post a few times and I have to agree with eyemissgilmour. The Comish wrote something that was taken out of his intended context and proceeded to clearly state why that presumption was unwarranted.

I for one have no interest in seeing women fighting. But you know what else? I have no interest in seeing men fighting either! They are often great athletes, but I personally don't find it entertaining to watch people beat each other up.

Of course it's their choice, male or female, to participate and it's the fans choice to enjoy it or not for whatever reason they choose to have. I, like many others, have no issue with any of that. Differing opinions are no reason to start personal attacks or name calling.

tap tap. *whispers* blayze, you're using the metric side of the ruler again.

[smoothfun]

Do I dare take a stand?!
Nothing sexist about the Comishs' comment(s) unless you choose to see it that way by your own interpertation , much like my opinion(s) on the drinking & driving issue.
Myself , I find any of the mixed martial arts fighting painfull to watch.
I respect those that do it and those who find it entertaining but , it's not my cup of tea.
