I'm sure this topic has been raised elsewhere, but I was unable to locate an actual thread - So, here's a new one...
What are you're thoughts on male vs. female competition? My indy fed is loosely inspired by Lucha Underground and I have been considering an intergender title and possibly belts that are dedicated to a mixed tag team division.
Also... If you do play intergender matches, how do you handle stat conversion? I think one of the Shimmer handbooks have a chart, but I thought the concept of weakening female wrestlers when they face their male counterparts seemed kinda outdated.
Would appreciate any feedback... Thanks!

So it is something I have considered. I was contemplating a mixed tag title since my womens division is a little low for a womens tag. Not sure what I think of it. Some cases I have allowed like Sabre, Thrash showed up in a rumble, etc.

I imagine that some people will disagree with me but I would just use them with no conversion. It's all a work anyway and if a woman can't beat a man in a fake fight then what's the point?

My thoughts exactly... Almost like saying there's no way Natasha Romanova could beat Clint Barton in a fair fight... I mean, REALLY? LOL

I regularly play intergender matches with no conversion. Tessa Blanchard was my first champion defeating AR Fox, Chris Dickinson, David Starr, Jordynne Grace, and Hallowicked. No conversion needed.

I don't like intergender wrestling. Maybe I'm just old. So I don't play those matches in my game. If I did I would probably not use the conversion chart and leave the women as they are statted.

I don't have a problem with intergender wrestling (Candice LeRae in PWG was awesome,) but I usually don't book those matches in my fed.
When I started my LOW color fed, I did book Trish Stratus against some men but I stopped doing it once more LOW women got color cards released.
In COTG, I have mostly just booked Alpha Female (who just regained the Ladies Championship for her 3rd time) against other women.

I've done some intergender matches in indie feds with no conversion. Since it goes on in actual indie shows, I don't see the big deal. Besides, Team PAWG can run over a lot of the flippy indie guys since they both have decent power ratings.

I don't do them in any of my feds . Did do a story in Anarchy Legends Tiger Mask v Redd Dogg (w/ Jazz) . Were Jazz was frustration that Redd Dogg couldn't beat Tiger Mask . So Jazz wanted to fight Tiger Mask but it never happened . In Anarchy UK they don't do ladies matches in anyway

Really value the input of my friends and fellow promoters... And it's been extremely helpful... I've been trying to pick a direction for female competitors in my Kingdom of Truth indy fed and I think I've gotta pretty good idea where I'm going... Many thanks!
