Like, I get that's inherently sexist a little bit, but no more than really anything else in wrestling, to the point where I don't see why it's getting called out. I mean, if we acknowledge it's sexist (and I even said it was a tiny bit, not OMG YOU PIG) then I don't feel like it shouldn't be acknowledged, and everyone knows that you're not some raging sexist so I don't know why we shouldn't hold ourselves to a higher standard. We'd probably hold ourselves to a higher standard when wrestling itself does. I mean, let's be honest, here. Most of them try/intend to be seen as hot/attractive. So why is that okay, but it's not okay to acknowledge it? Once again, it comes back to "at least she's hot" thing. There's nothing wrong with acknowledging the attractiveness of female wrestlers, it's another to make it sound like it justifies massive short-comings in other areas. And the implication in your original post is that Sasha has become a really bad wrestler. --- TheRock ~ I had a name, my father called me Blues. <cite>TheRock1525 posted [p:885155835] in All-Purpos...
