My cousin actually lost to a girl in High School wrestling in Northern California, of course I couldn't let that go...if I had ever lost to chic in any sporting contest I would have never heard the end of it!!!!

It sparked quite the controversy back in the day. I always wrote it off to brilliant comedy, but it certainly touched a nerve.
As a fencer, I fenced (and lost) to a lot of women. But that's a totally different situation as there's no body contact (at least, there's not supposed to be any) and women excel at the sport. By that I mean that the proportion of women fencers to men fencers is much more equal than in wrestling.
If you allow men and women mixed wrestling, it really opens Pandora's box when it comes to other fight sports.

As a woman, I would rather test myself against a guy, unfortunately my most likely attacker in real life...
