Why I Like Wrestling & Catfighting...

There seems to be a few different posts all asking why people like catfighting/what got them into it etc so rather than replying to every one of them I have decided just to start my own topic. It would be nice if other females (only) were to also post on here so we could all compare our interest.

When I was at school I was fairly sporty and for a few summers me and a couple of my friends had out own "Olympic games" where we would do things like race each other around the garden, do gymnastics and a few times we would do wrestling and fencing (using a couple of snooker cues from my brothers 4' snooker table as swords). This would have been between the ages of about 8 and 12 I think.

When I went to secondary school some of us got into WWE wrestling and we would have our own fun wrestling matches for a laugh, although i think the first one started as a playfight over something daft, i cant quite remember what it was but i picked up something of my friends and she wanted me to give it back to her but i wouldnt and from there it started, we would find something to playfght over ever couple of weeks and then time after watching wrestlemania that we had recorded from sky the previous night we arranged our own wrestlemania, and a few more wrestling events for the next couple of years. We never spoke between us about why we did it and liked it, at the time i just assumed that it was because we liked WWE and because it was a great laugh. The matches werent like professional wrestling though, we would use a few moves but there was a lot of hairpulling and slapping going on too. When we reached about 16 it all tailed off though, other things got in the way like exams, boys, and all the usual things.

At university I had a couple drunken playfights with friends, nothing arranged, they just kinda happened. Since leaving university I have taken part in a mud wrestling competition on holiday in corfu, but nothing other than that and the occassional playfight with the ex BF.

At school I got in a couple of streetfights, and at university got in one at a nightclub, but I didnt like them, they felt different to the "playfights". I didnt really enjoy watching fights either, it didnt matter if it was between guys or girls.

So why do I like it?

For me there isnt really a sexual element to it. I'm not "into" other women, I have no interest in sexfights or titfights or anything like that.

I dont like streetfights, my experience of them has told me that, so there isnt any sortof vicarious thrill i get from violence. I have no interest in meeting anyone for no rules fights, and for me i struggle to see why anyone would want that. For me, "proper" fights are about anger and hatred and that just isnt me, I like to like people, if I dont like someone I would prefer just to keep out of their way. If I had to fight then obviously I would, but it is not something that i would get any thrill from. The only time i have ever really got into streetfights were if it was a friend who was fighting, but then there is the emotional attachment to that person and wanting them to win and not get hurt, so it gets the adrenaline going a bit along with the nerves and the tension.

The things I like about it are quite simple.
There is the adrenaline rush and the blood flowing from the physical exertion. If someone is on top of you the muscles straining as you try to get them off, pushing hard against them etc, all give a physical rush.
There is also the competition aspect of it. Looking back at when I was younger, although we were friends, I liked the competition and rivalry of trying to be better than my friends. If I lost it didnt matter. But I wanted to win and be the best. In exams i always wanted them to do really well...but i always wanted to do that little bit better than them. I still have that competitive side to me, so if i was to wrestle/catfight someone now i would still go all out to win. I would still want to like the person though, I dont see any point in nastyness. And because of that if i am in the chatroom and someone messages me with something like "i wanna scratch your boobs up bitch", when i have never interacted with them before, i just ignore them. Get to know me instead of being rude and ignorant. If you were out shopping you wouldnt walk up and say something like that so there is no need to do it in a chatroom either, unless the name of the chatroom is "be rude and ignorant".
The final thing I like about it is something that has developed over the last year or so, rather than when I was young. I have a job and resonsibilities, all the things normal life brings and having to fit in with what is expected. Females fighting isnt something that is generally seen by society as being normal or acceptable. So it allows the wild side in me to come out, the part that has to be constrained in my "normal" life, its an escape. I was in a long term relationship and during it the wrestling/playfighting/catfighting thing wasnt something that was part of my life, other than the occassional playfight with him. As i said earlier, it has never been a sexual or fetish thing for me so it wasnt something i ever thought to bring up, and if he had an interest in it he never let me know. Even if he had an interest in it I would probably not have done anything for him, because for him it would probably have been sexual and i would probably have felt i had to do things i wasnt comfortable with to make it suit his sexual fantasy taste. It would have been something i was doing for him, not for me and call me selfish if you want but if i'm not comfortable with it then i aint doing it. Now that I am single again, and still young, that wild side of me can come to the fore on occssion
