In regards to my post where I commend my son for not using certain moves on a girl. I did not state that I agreed to the idea of girls wrestling boys. I meerly stated that I commend his actions in not doing certain moves that he felt were inappropriate. In latent terms I am proud of the fact that he can respect a girl on and off the mat. It may not be fair, but who is it not fair to? Therefore it is not hypocritcal. Being I female, I wish to keep those beliefs to myself, I am a strong believer in the right to ones opinion and do not wish to be judged for my personal opinion as so many are on this forum.
I too have often wondered what would happen if I entered him in a girls tournament but I would never put him through that situation. This will sound horrible coming from a female, but I told my son if he didn't make the football team he should try out for volleyball. I was given the "get real" look from my son.
To set the record stright the only thing I have agreed with is that at the 11+ age I do not agree with girls and boys wrestling each other and that boys would feel awkward in certain positions with other boys outside of wrestling.

As for cheering on the girls, what am I supoose to do? I am a female!!!
