Biography of Queen Kong |
I've always been a "Big" girl. All throughout my young life, everyone was always making derogatory comments about my size. From the age of 13, I was 6'3", and weighed 180 lbs. I grew up on an isolated mountain, Running Springs, California. I was very awkward, large, and lonely. I was over 6' tall in the 9th grade, and gangly and uncoordinated. I never got picked for any team sports, I was a complete klutz. The boys in school were all afraid of me, always trying to get my goat. I mostly felt self conscious about my size. I didn't realize that the naughty boys were just trying to get my attention and some good old fashioned competition with a female going.
I finished High School without a date. I did have a passion for roller skating and spent countless hours in an outdoor rink in Running Springs. I then went on to college in Los Angeles, El Camino Jr. College. I was studying music, and art. I was employed as a telephone operator. Then, one day I went to watch the collegiate wrestling team in action. I was inspired by the skill, strength and determination that I saw these young men show, not to mention the great bods and buns. All of a sudden, I felt a passion for a sport that I had never had before.
The grappling grabbed my mind and body. I decided to enroll in the beginning class. At first I was laughed at and the coach told me a woman did not belong in that class. I threatened to report him to the ERA. He reluctantly let me join. After a few months I started to show great promise. I started running and lifting weights, and practiced countless drills. Then one day, I pinned the wrestling captain. Then all the boys became afraid of me. Often they would lose because my boob in their face would throw them totally off guard, or a very embarrassing bulge in their shorts would arise after an illegal crotch hold. I started winning match's by default.
I didn't feel there was enough competition with everyone afraid all the time. So, I put some ads in wrestling magazines for private wrestling match's. Through the responses, I discovered an entire world of private amateur wrestling clubs. Many men started writing and requesting mixed collegiate style wrestling match's. I put a mat in my house, and started teaching men that women can be very formidable. I would say that I won at least 90% of my match's. I video taped and photographed many of these match's and you can see them in my library list in the near future. I am categorizing these items now.
Since then, I've performed over 7,000 live shows in public arenas and more in amateur matches. My first public performance was in 1971, wrestling for El Camino College. I was the first female collegiate wrestler in America. I won 75% of my match's in the 200 lb weight class. That was the first year El Camino won the state championship. I must admit, the first time I really beat a man with my wrestling skills, I was completely addicted. The look of fear in my male opponents eyes as I went for the pin was more addicting than heroin. I felt such surging confidence and power, something I never dreamed was possible for a timid, shy and uncoordinated young girl. I felt a victory for all womankind when I saw that with my strong scissors holds, and unrelenting determination and stamina that I could conquer any man.
