Calling a female fighter attractive has netted me my only probation in ten years. I wish saying someone, male or female, wouldn't throw everyone into such a weird nerd uproar.

Fozzy, I'm just going to preemptively say nobody gives a gently caress what you think on the topic.

You got a week and fatherdog swore at you but you just said attractive. Seems fishy.

Anyway it isn't weird nerd uproar. Dudes got kind of gross about Rousey and Nakai.

i think it's because people feel like exploiters if the ring girls' only job is to be attractive, but, like, that's what they applied for. i can guarantee you that arriany did not fill out the job application and then hesitate in mailing it, thinking to herself "but does it have opportunities for growth?"
it's like getting bent out of shape that a fighter could get brain damage or other permanent injury. it's a primary bullet point of the job and they choose to do it.

people on line hate miesha tate for a few weird reasons. because of her boyfriend, because she's pretty, because of her several bad fights, and because of ronda rousey. and dead centre in the middle of that venn diagram is this web site and its various maniac sex perverts.

for real though, getting punched in the tits loving hurts and im honestly always really astonished at miesha's ability to just not react to getting hit there at all. i recall someone teeping her right in the chest and i physically winced.

Irony is presenting a toilet in an artistic space, forcing the viewer to grapple with both their preconceived notions of space and meaning and authorial intent. It is not using a toilet in your home.

Being attractive as a female fighter was a definite thing promoters and fans were looking for early on for WMMA and it's not something that's gone entirely now. It's definitely easing off and WMMA gets praised on its virtues outside of sex appeal a lot more often now but it's pretty much revisionist history if people are going to claim it's never been a thing.

i dont think anyone here is unaware that women's mma basically became a thing because Gina Carano was pretty enough for strikeforce to push and then Rousey was pretty enough and dominant enough to convince people that the women's division was increasing in quality.

im not convinced it's actually unique to women's mma either. GSP drove a hell of a lot of PPV buys, it's just harder to say for certain how much people weigh attractiveness when evaluating men's mma because the men's divisons have been stronger for longer and you can't really isolate particular factors from the numbers.

definitely. i've done no conclusive research but it certainly seems like pretty fighters get pushed harder in the women's division whereas the UFC happily pushed Brock Lesnar who is only described that way in the sentence "pretty hosed up colon".

Joe Rogan insinuated on air in an official UFC broadcast that Tate vs Rousey 1 was gonna be the "hottest title fight ever," and yet said nothing of the kind at any point when discussing Weidman vs Rockhold. That should tell you everything you need to know.

Dada was an anti art movement where legit famous artists did things like present a toilet as an art exhibition, forcing high-faluting upper class dickheads to either call a toilet art or a famous artist terrible.or they could just be like, 'that's a toilet', but they won't because of the context of the space.
