Thank you Caleb, I appreciate that too, and I wish more of the boys I knew would think like that.

I know a girl who wrestles(wouldn’t be surprised if it’s the same one.) and she was saying that most of the guys barely wrestled and if they did throw her they were helping her stand up and making sure she was all right. I don’t think she realized that it was contrary to all the men had been taught(it was a Christian school I think) to be wrestling with her.
On the other hand there were some men who wrestled as hard as they could, because they didn’t want a girl to beat them.

Caleb,

I *really* appreciated what you said here–what you said about how you believe women should be treated. We need more guys in this world that think the way you do.

interesting…I like what you said about women though. They are easily broken, and they love it when men show courtesy and kindness to them.

Hmm….
So I have a question. Is wrestling different from any other sport that women participate in? Is it different from martial arts? And is there a problem with women cultivating strength? I realize that this is not your point, and I do get what you’re saying, it’s just connected to a lot of other things in my mind….things I don’t quite have an answer for.
