Girls doing well in traditionally male sports, how do guys react to you being as good as them?

I wrestle and arm wrestle, I can hold my own, but some guys get really nasty when you prove you’re as good. Some (a minority) are cool, but mostly guys react badly

@appassionata I hear you. But not sure what else would be better... at least this avoids calling them "pathetic, insecure, misogynistic losers" lol ;)

@Salix75 yea it works in this scenario. Insecurity in the gym is the leading vibe most of the time 😂
