Women in Mens Sports

Recently in the news a Male high school wrestler forfeited to a Female wrestler at the state wrestling tournament in Iowa, because it was against his religion. The male was set to make a run at the Championship, but that wouldn't happen after he forfeited his first round match. The young male should have never been put in this situation in the first place, it is a masculine sport and no place for girls to be unless they have all girls. Males are superior in strength and speed, and that's the reason that men aren't allowed to join the women's volleyball team or softball teams in certain high school. Women have got there way when it come to sports and Title IX. If they want more sports they can go argue about it more and and have them put a female wrestling team in place, but they have no business in Male sports. Sports are all about competition and when a Male is matched against a Female it is a lose-lose situation. Wrestling is a very grueling sport and body parts are grabbed and grouped, and for a guy to get interact with a female like that puts him in an uncomfortable position. What happens if the Male hurts the female? Then he is looked at as a bully. Then there is if he loses and I've been around wrestling a lot and seen plenty of women try to wrestle with the guys, and it doesn't happen hardly ever, but if it does the embarrassment it brings to the Male from the harassment he receives from his friends. My point is this young Male wrestler should have never had to forfeit to this Female in the first place and give up his chances for gold. The Athletic Associations need to make changes to this rule.
