Why Wrestling Fetish Fills An Important Sexual Niche In Our Lives
I have taken the post title from a recent article in the well known Slate magazine, only exchanging "porn" by "fetish". Besides the author own remarks, the text makes reference to a post about the same subject in the online publication Vocativ.
Despite the volume of pictures and videos dedicated to women fighting that have been around for a long time, the "normal" world have not payed much attention to the topic yet. In result, I become interested every time I find any analysis from "non-members" of our select club.
The Vocativ article was written by Charlotte Shane who visited Ultimate Surrender and interviewed Ariel, now a referee and manager in the producer payroll (has she quit the mat?). Unfortunately, the author visited a combat promoter that gives wrestling and porn the same priority. She remarks that the audience is thrilled and excited mostly by the women athletic prowess and fighting skills. However, my point of view is that Ultimate Surrender spoils the attraction of a real bout with its emphasis on sexual maneuvers. And I am considering their combats not staged: at least one first hand viewer confirmed what the company advertises.
I have taken a look on half a dozen Ultimate Surrender fights from my archive. It was not easy to extract decent wrestling holds and moves by cutting scenes with the so called "shame points" - when combatants go to the foe´s privates and stay fondling her for a long time. In the end, not much footage is worthwhile viewing.

The Slate and Vocativ texts fall short in the analysis because they supposed porn is the only selling point in this entertainment niche. A much better analysis (if I could read it...) should be in the Werner Sonntag book "Kampfes Lust" which takes the female combat per se as a fetish source.
