EliteXC Signs "Karate Hottie" Michelle Waterson
Not sure which style this girl is from but, I thought this post would be appreciated by around half the K4L members

Osu!
Call it sexism if you will, but I can't see the value in women repeatedly punching each other in the face, be it Boxing, Kickboxing or MMA. (I know, there is some discrepancy when I think that Knockdown has so many benefits, particularly for women, but this seems borderline voyeurism.) Is it just cultural/ age-based dissonance, or do others feel the same? Osu!

Well Dent put it this way, personally with looks like that I think she could do well as a model, hence the reason I dont think im going to enjoy seeing her being on the receiving end of a few ground and pounds *sigh*

I admire any woman who has the spirit to test themselves in one of the most dangerous proving grounds in our modern society. Be it Kyokushin, muay Thai, boxing, MMA or whatever. When you throw in that this lady is obviously very attractive and has a lot going for her (read: she doesn't need to fight for a living) my respect for her goes up even more. Osu.

It's for the tv ratings....
Got to be able to charge more for advertising on the channel, and you can only do that if there are more eyeballs tuning into the programs! vapor

It's awesome to see anyone follow their dreams. She has set a goal to be a fighter and she's pursuing it. I wish her success.

I have no problem with female fighting if it's based on no "worked" fights and fair calls. I'm glad to see promotions like Smack girl with fighters like Megumi and Cindy Hales because I know they're true warriors that give it their all. Fortunately, I think this is changing because I don't see it as much in MMA as I used to in muay thai.

Can I flick your question back to you and ask, what is the value in men doing it? And why does that same value not apply to women?

That dissonance is why I called potential sexism into it. From my POV, men are praised socially for looking like they've been through the wringer. (And we could spend hour after hour discussing why that is, but I'll just take it as read.) The same standard does not apply to women. I believe that FightSport is a far preferable outlet for young men to their taking those same desires to the street. Given the number of young women brawling right now, I wonder whether it wouldn't do them some good too? Or is there a better way? Violence against women, or even between women, has long been an issue due both the reproductive and resource influenced questions. I know they aren't helpless little flowers in need of a man's protection, but they are just as vulnerable to exploitation as any man, and as PowerofOne says, for different reasons than many men. Just as I've seen guys fed a line on their skills to get them to face a much better opponent, I've also seen women served up to the spectators because of their looks. When those are sufficiently damaged, they stop getting offered fights, even if they are much improved over their earlier bouts. Watching the videos, I can just see her getting a fight based on her appearance rather than her skills, facing off against a far better opponent, and then taking far more damage than she imagined. (Anyone been to a few post fight conferences?) Personally, I want all my kids to follow their dreams, wherever they may take them, but I hope that doesn't take them in the same multiple-fracture direction it did me. I hope this for my son, but especially for my daughters... Osu!
