So what's the real problem? Are straight wrestlers too chicken to wrestle gays, or is the other way around?

big·ot
noun \ˈbi-gət\
Definition of BIGOT
: a person who is obstinately or intolerantly devoted to his or her own opinions and prejudices; especially : one who regards or treats the members of a group ([such] as a racial or ethnic group) with hatred and intolerance.

I think that covers people who irrationally hate and/or fear gays, don't you?

Uhm, the term "bigot" is applicable in many situations. It is not exclusive to racism.

Boy, another example of being under-educated and over-opinionated. Guys like you are awesome!

I realize this thread is concerning Russia, but my statement was more of a blanket one. Yes I do know Russians dont care and are not as PC as we are.

I don't get it. Gays would be in favor of MORE wrestling, not less.

In ancient Greece, the wrestlers were nekkid. Doesn't get any more homoerotic than that. Maybe the Russian guy thought the gays were trying to go back to the old ways, and when they didn't get their way got the sport eliminated altogether.

Well it's a stupid decision by the Olympic Committee no matter how many people get off watching two dudes wrestle. I can tell you from experience if you are the one wrestling it isn't a very erotic activity.

Now watching it is another story. I remember the girls that used to come watch us in highschool were very flirty and flush after the match.

Sweaty dudes rubbing all over each other doesn't just turn on the gays.
