Female Fight Club

For me, the idea of "Fight Club" centering around a group of women rather then a group of men is not believable. It is not believable simply because none of us have ever seen it on a large scale. I for one can't even think of a single time that I have seen a women arrested for an act similar to project mayhem. When you turn on the news and see acts of terror or vandalism, the sex associated with those types of crimes is male. However, if forced to create a situation where there is a group of women beating each other into a pulp, "Fight Club" would be even more controversial then it already is. By historical standards, women just don't fight. Even dating back thousands of years, women have never been portrayed as violent or having the need to fight. We are just now getting out of a society where the women stayed at home with the kids and the father came home to cooked dinner every night. Women going out to fight clubs and coming back bruised and bloody is just about the exact opposite of staying home and watching your children. A book with this scenario is possible, but I don't think anyone would want to buy or read it because of it's lack of realism. In the violent situations of "Fight Club", I don't think you can just switch the gender of all the characters in the book while maintaining a similar plot and expect the same results. Men and women are too inherently different biologically and psychologically and the result of a female "Fight Club" would be unbelievable and ineffective at making the same points as male "Fight Club".
