willie_dee posted:My first opponent I would want to be Neon Belly, the guys friendly, polite, good natured, above my level in terms of bjj but has 0 striking and very little no gi. He also got pure mugged off by some guy in his gym a bit back so I feel I could gain the psychological edge. I did a Muay Thai private lesson once where I gave myself a fat lip while holding pads, thank you very much.

Wrestling is dying at the collegiate level; it's seen a 25% decline in athletes in the NCAA over the past few decades.

Yuns posted:Title IX is a huge factor. Wrestling is generally male only at the collegiate level but not a big money generator like football. So a lot of schools have cut it for Title IX purposes. Dozens of wrestling programs were cut while Title IX was suspended for athletics under Reagan and there are more total male NCAA athletes than ever, accounting for 70% of NCAA athletes and around 80% of collegiate sports budgets. Title IX seems like a flimsy excuse. Neon Belly fucked around with this message at 19:05 on Aug 8, 2018 |

CommonShore posted:Just make women's wrestling programs. God. You already have the freakin' equipment. That's on its way. There already a few dozen collegiate women's wrestling programs, although none recognized by the NCAA. What's weird is that at the high school level, many states don't separate out men and women wrestlers.

Namely Steven Seagal and his delusional insanity. Excuse me, The Way Of The Shadow Wolves: The Deep State And The Hijacking Of America is the high point of contemporary American literature.

quidditch it and quit it posted:Dunno if Judo is the same but for what I’ve seen, in BJJ, if you’re transgender then actual competition requires you to have a ridiculously thick skin. Not all that shocking, unfortunately. Some top BJJ athletes in America are openly homophobic or support politicians who think LGBT people should be violently attacked when seen in public.

Mr. Nice! posted:I don’t have anything in particular to add one way or another, but I know a few people here are curious/uncertain about terminology. The preferred nomenclature is of course to refer to someone by their gender. If you have some reason to discuss their transition or dead life before or need to differentiate from cis-gendered people (as in the current discussion), the proper term currently is A[M/F]AB for Assigned [Male or Female] At Birth. Thanks, will be more cognizant about this in the future.
