I think the psychologists explanation that women wrestling or fighting is close to sex is wrong. My evidence is if we had the chance to see lesbians having sex or watching two women fight we are going to pick the two women fighting. Of course not all guys are going to do that so maybe there is some crossover from the guys that watch lesbians, but I would say we are a unique and fairly specific fetish. I have always thought it is a combination of our animal instinct and early sexual experiences. In my case, long before I saw any pictures of naked women or porn, I saw pictures in magazines of women fighting, gorgeous women in movies and TV fighting, and actual girls fighting. Those were formative experiences. For guys who didn't have those experiences perhaps there is something else. I think what is especially interesting is how into catfights women are. I think they live a bit vicariously through the fighters themselves and it is a HUGE release. They are so used to sniping at each other or battling socially that having the ability to actually confront your rival I think is freeing.
