The First Lady of Wrestling, Miss Elizabeth, dressed mod­ estly, yet elegantly, and was adored by men and admired by women. Today, however, the WWF and its prime competi­ tion, the World Championship Wrestling, push the statutes of good taste. The WWF boasts a scantily-clad heartbreaker known as Sable, as well as her darker counterpart, the overly-muscular Chyna. The crowd is pumped up by their hero, Road Dogg, a particularly unsavory character who invites the pre- dominantly-drunken audience to join him in proclaiming his raunchy motto, “Suck it!” The depths to which this industry has sunk are appalling, but they seem to be working.

to bust out our own moves until we were approached by possible suitors. Before long, we were presented with an attractive pair of Knott Hall boys who seemed to want no more than a friendly dance. Full of liquid confidence, however, “ friendly" soon turned into much more, as these boys sloppily attempt­ ed to grope us in the public eye. We tried to give them the benefit of the doubt by politely moving away, but these boys were relentless. After a series of what they undoubt­ edly considered to be no-fail pick-up lines like, “I can’t help it — you’re just so sexy” and "Do you think that there’s any chance we'll get to see the two of you beautiful girls hook up tonight?” we where to situate decided to cut our losses and set out in seek of ourselves, we agreed on O'Neill Hall, a new set of (preferably unintoxicated) sub­ where the residents of the third floor jects for the next night. always prove to be in peak “male” form.

After a quick round of shots to prime them­ selves, our subjects took off running down the hall, chanting loud war.cries to warn off interlop­ ers. From here, the boys pounced on each other, not bothering with standard wrestling moves such as the Figure-Four-Leglock or the Boston Crab, but rather full-out brawling. Entertaining as this was, it told us not much more about nor­ mal male activity than we had already gathered from everyday interaction with guys. Eager to get an untainted male outlook on life, we returned home to check out “The X Show,” FX’s spin-off of Comedy Central’s “Man Show.” By the first commercial break, we had seen more than enough. The theme of the episode, as with every episode, centered around beer, <*j j « aX? automobiles and, of course, shapely girls doing half-hearted aerobics. “Learn where to buy a car like this ... and where to meet someone like THIS ...,” adver­ tised the announcer as an impossibly chested MARY CALASH/The Observer woman came strutting onstage.
