There's been a somewhat disturbing trend on wrestling lately. First of all, let me qualify this by saying, "Yes, I do know that wrestling is scripted and mostly fictional," I'm not a complete idiot. So anyways, women on wrestling have been being attacked or harmed by men lately.
In reality, violence commited by males against females is pretty tragic in my opinion. And that's why when I see something in the realm of fiction depicting that kind of violence I tend to shutter on the inside a little. The media is full of that shit though, everything from fantasy fiction to Law & Order: SVU. And it's fucking our moral compass as a society.
Too often are women being portrayed as victims and its kind of boring. Now the kind of chick violence I can really appreciate is stuff like Kill Bill, Terminator, and Point of No Return. These ladies are warriors and then violent acts done to them by men are somewhat empowering because it puts them on the level of an adversary against the man that harms her. Guys, we have to take women seriously. They fight in our wars now. Women may be a little softer in some areas then we are but every warrior knows that no enemy should be underestimated. And a female enemy is nothing to be scoffed at.
What do you think?
