Hockey
We must have been about 13 when some bright spark of a PE teacher decided to arrange a boys vs. girls hockey match.

It did not end well.

The girls outclassed us in experience, skill, strength, size and aggression. Conceding goals to a girl hurts. Sticks hurt. Falling on a plastic pitch hurts. Short penalties aimed at the balls really really hurt. The score of the match was obviously in their favour, but what mattered more to them were the scores that were settled. We were outclassed, and every tackle, bruise and goal proved it.

Needless to say, a rematch was never considered. In fact I don't recall ever picking up a hockey stick again. But since that day, I've always had a thing about hockey girls ... the athletic physique ... the short skirts ... the niggling recollection of utter utter physical humiliation.
