Tough Girlz **1**

To be big and freaky. Or not to be. That is the question that haunts women's bodybuilding. Some say yes. Others say not. Although this is hardly a new issue, the controversy has now reached a point where the line has been drawn in the sand amongst the competitors.
In one corner you have a group of women who say they are being denied an opportunity to achieve their best in bodybuilding because they refuse to give in to how society, the IFBB or the NPC says they should look.
They have taken their fight to a gender discrimination level claiming that the rules for the women are unfairly biased. In another corner you have a group of women who say the sport needs to change. In short, they are tired of the negativity and confusion.
