If you got curious about the statement entitled "When Women Fight", in the right column just below the slide show, let me tell you that I am not the author. I have found the thought in the Κινημα: Gladiatrix! site and considered it quite interesting. This site is open to debates about the role and meaning of female fights in the movies. I think I can extend that to all types of media: art, photos, sculptures, videos and other forms of representation.
The comment quoted here in the blog has come from a woman, Catherine Colegrove, who wrote a paper on the subject of female fighting for a panel held this year in Chicago.
And a coincidence: one of the papers on the site analyzes the female gladiators of "The Arena" movie, whose star, Pam Grier, has been a theme of an entry in this blog.
