Is Rock Climbing A Mans Sport?
With more women getting physically fit, rock climbing has gone from being a man’s passion to a woman’s pleasure. Men have always been the ones who have climbed rocks outdoors and at indoor rock climbing facilities. Men have always had the strength to pull themselves up on a rock, and they have been able to climb rocks that are very high. Recently, women have discovered that they too can join the ranks of men who climb rocks. Women are generally more agile than men, making rock climbing an easy sport. Women and men can climb together; however men should always let women climb ahead before they do out of courtesy. Women should wear clothing that is concealing and comfortable due to climbing above other people. A good pair of shoes that has a grip to them should be worn. Shorts can be worn at indoor rock climbing locations, but if women are climbing outside, longer shorts or even pants should be worn so that the legs are not scratched. Men have dominated the sport of rock climbing, but today women are joining them in their efforts. There is no reason why both men and women cannot enjoy the same sport and have fun doing it.
