Women's kickboxing in Australia

[edit]

  • Alt1: ... that women's kickboxing in Australia is popular with Muslim women because it allows them to compete in compliance with religious beliefs about clothing?
  • AFD now closed as keep. While ALT1 is supported by its reference, it doesn't pass the common-sense test (kickboxing isn't outright "popular" with aggro secular young men, so it's unlikely to be "popular" among any group of religiously observant young women - I think that the author meant its more/relatively popular). As such, I prefer the initial hook, but the ref to the Sydney Star Observer says it was legalised in 2008 rather than 2009. I think that this is more of a RS than the other source provided for this (an online interview with a female kickboxer). Otherwise, everything checks out. Nick-D (talk) 08:48, 19 May 2012 (UTC)
