Should there be exceptions in rules in intergender mma?

Question

So I am asking this question not because I mean to say that girls should get an unfair advantage but considering the difference in male and female body, should women get an advantage in intergender mma fights?

I wrestled in Highschool and had to wrestle a lot of girls in practice and in actual competitive matches a lot and it already felt like the girls had one equalizing advantage tbh. So groin grabs and stuff are technically illegal but in wrestling I notice refs don’t call much on girls when they do stuff to guys so I’ve had girls literally just grab my balls and the ref did nothing. I am a lot stronger than most girls and even can pick a lot of them up and drop them to the mat but if she gets a grab or accurate shots there I do go down for awhile lol. Also it doesn’t help that in wrestling we don’t wear cups (which you can see in these gifs) https://insteadofsaving.tumblr.com/post/157394721604/wrestlerfan-more/amp

Our gear doesn’t help so even if I’m stronger it’s 50/50. I have a muscular build and I was literally picking a girl up sideways to slam her down one time and She got a hit there right on target if the round didn’t end right when I got hit I would’ve lost. She had me down for almost a full minute 😂. Even most of my girl sparring partners try to grab them it’s really unfair and since I kinda am big there it’s an easy target 😂

We're in an age of equality right? All fighters should be treated equal (except for weight. Featherwieght v superheavy weight wouldn't be much of a fight)

That depends on what kind of advantage we're talking about. I've ran matches before with friends who trained and I just played without protective gear. She was quick and it ended in maybe a 50/50 win ratio and a TKO with bruised testicles lol

Should it even be a thing? If it is a thing no I guess... why?

I wrestled in high school and beat people stronger than me and have loss to guys that were weaker than me does strength play that much more of a role in mma that weaker opponents would need an advantage?

If the girl has about the same size and strength, she could be training with a guy or compete. Why not?

No I mean I wrestled in high school and girls beat me without having an advantage why would they need one for mma?
