Why don't woman like wrestling?

Most girls I talk to, HATE wrestling, they think its brutal and pointless.
My argument is, it is interesting, the violence is cool and entertaining (gotta love those extreme rules matches!!) and, its not pointless if you get entertained, and the wrestlers get rich.
With the boys I know its a different story, they love it, they love the violence, they love everything about it!!

So tell me:
What do you guys think about wrestling?

i did however read, a long time ago, about a very peacefull asian people, who absolutly adore bloody, violent wrestling/boxing. the theory was that they are peacefull because of that outlet.
a bit like video games i supose.

none of that explains why women/girls don't like it.
men are more aggressive? society?

let's hope some one comes up with an interresting answer.; ▶ Reply to This

It's all staged. There's no sportsmanship. It's just soap operas for men, badly acted and punctuated by pretend fighting with pre-destroyed furniture.; ▶ Reply to This

How do you fake being thrown of the top of a large steel cage into an announce table?; ▶ Reply to This

All the American stuff is 100% fake.; ▶ Reply to This

i have been forced to watch this stuff, and have been trying to figure it out. as i am not a fan i hope to be more objective.; ▶ Reply to This
