I miss the 90's thread

I agree. Wrestling is gay. Any time there are men in shorts getting on top of each other, it's gay. Some may say that's it's competition, but there are many forms of competition that do not involve that. MMA is gay too, for the same reason. Wearing shorts and rolling around on the ground with other men over and over again has to be done because they enjoy it. Why would any really straight man find that enjoyable?


I don't like fighting, but at least boxing doesn't include that kind of gayness. There are other martial arts that don't involve getting on top of other men, either. You can kick someone's butt without getting on top of them, or embracing them from behind.

I have more respect for gladiators who fight to the death, because at least then something is accomplished, because there is some finality to it. The enemy is dead and he will never be getting back up again, you will never have to deal with him again, it's done. Sure, it's barbaric, but then, so is fighting. At least fighting to the death is more honest. Otherwise, people should pursue peaceful diversions or contests.
Peaceful contests are what I support, like racing.

You could say that about any contact sport tho. People who worry about gayness in sports are gay. Probably.

Gladiators? There was nothing gay about Spartacus.

The thing is when I watch WWE, MMA or Football, the last thing on my mind is "oh this looks like a gay porno" or " hey it's a bunch of sweaty guys in tight outfits". That is the farthest..farthest thing from my mind. I don't even notice such things, until others bring it up.

I knew that would get picked up and run with.

True, but then you don't have your pants around your ankles and your greased up peepee in your hand like they do when they "don't" watch it.

You're absolutely right!

Your little joke backfired.

 

[crows]

joke? I was being serious bro, there is no joke here, you just proved my point

Yes. Ballet is a sport.
Ballet dancers have some things in common with athletes, in that their instruments are their bodies, for example, and both require special training regimens, the advice and direction of coaches

Football vs Ballet

Football: You have to run long distances across fields
Ballet: You have to dance for at least 2-10 minuets long without stopping
Football: (tackle) You have to be able to hold up when your being tackled by someone
Ballet: You have to be able to lift other dancers

 

[brucecamblzchin]

Ballet is pretty manly - those dudes are invariably holding on to lady parts whenever they dance e.g. this dude has a bajinga smooshed on his face, he will totally nail her later on.

/the defence rests

I can google too - and many say it is an art form.

 

[crows]

I guess it is open to interpretation,
it is very physically demanding more than some other sports even, or at least just as demanding as any sport

Martial Arts by very name are arts, yet they're considered sports.
