80. Girls versus Boys p. 41

Daisy is talking with Samson about Kelly Williams， the female wrestler.

D： What do you think， Samson？ Should girls be allowed to wrestle with boys？

S： I don't see anything wrong with that.

D： Well， wrestling is a contact sport. It's very physical.

S： So？ I thought you women always wanted to be equal to men.

D： Yes. But this is different. They'll be grabbing each other. And to win， one wrestler has to lie on top of his or her opponent.

S： So what？

D： It's disgusting. Girls just shouldn't wrestle with boys.

S： Gee， Daisy！ Maybe you ought to be a nun.

D： That's not funny！ You sex maniac！
