It is a VERY different game when played by men.
If you are familiar with lacrosse, it is kind of like the difference between men’s and women’s lacrosse. The men’s game is brutal in comparison.
(Not that you are going to go search for a game, but in New England find a community with a Caribbean Community, and you can find a game most Saturdays in the fall. I saw a bunch of guys from the Bahamas playing Jamaicans. It was fun to watch.)
Up here brutal is rugby. The local women’s rugby team was really rugged and won nationals one year. The women’s ice hockey was funny to watch....
funny like on day I was in my car behind a very masculinized lesbian that I knew from the coop. She wore a lot of leather chains tats etc. She was on her hog with her girlfriend. The light turned green. You never saw such a demure, gentle, sweet, slow ride. you would have thought she was driving a Volvo.
Honestly.
