battousai16 Posted February 23, 2008 Share Posted February 23, 2008 if i were a woman out to attack you and you restrained me, i would yell "rape" and "abuse" until someone intervened, and i assure you it wouldn't end very pretty for you.

yingampyang Posted February 24, 2008 Share Posted February 24, 2008 Well if thats the only way to clam the situation down , then i would do it and then explain myself later. I think that there is no 1 style , and that to truly become a great martial artist and person you must take information from where ever you can.

battousai16 Posted February 25, 2008 Share Posted February 25, 2008 well, to that end, if you can confidently end a conflict by restraining somebody until the whole thing blows over, isn't that how you should end every conflict?

yingampyang Posted February 25, 2008 Share Posted February 25, 2008 Yes thats right , and it would be great if that was the way we all could end every conflict, but unfortuentlly sometimes you need a little more punch. lol I think that there is no 1 style , and that to truly become a great martial artist and person you must take information from where ever you can.

Kieran-Lilith Posted February 25, 2008 Share Posted February 25, 2008 I've noticed several of you dear men saying you'll restrain her. What if you can't? What if she fights better than you?As a woman, I hate to be treated differently than the guys. If you won't hit me, then I'll sure hit you. Maybe I'm just odd....I think people with the intent to harm are people with the intent to harm, male, female, alien, whatever, and you need to stop them long enough to get away and call the police.

yingampyang Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 lol good point , well if she does fight better than me , then i guess i will have to treat it like a real fight. If she wants a real fight then she will get one. I think that there is no 1 style , and that to truly become a great martial artist and person you must take information from where ever you can.

There are A LOT of guys out there who won't hesitate to hit a girl, and they won't hold back and you need to prepare for that. Nevertheless, if some girl starts beating on you and you turn around and punch her in the face- doesn't matter who started it, no court is going to side with you unless she tried to stab you with a knife or something along those lines. Plus I have a no girl hitting policy outside of training Don't hit at all if it is honorably possible to avoid hitting; but never hit soft.~Theodore Roosevelt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not going to be waiting around to see how good the girl is before deciding how much force I need to use to put her down. It may sound rough, but I am not going to get punched on by anyone. https://www.haysgym.comhttp://www.sunyis.com/https://www.aikidoofnorthwestkansas.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"If you fight a girl there are two ways to come out of it. You either win, and you beat up a girl. Or, you lost and got your butt kicked by a girl. Which do you want to do?"Saddly though, your spot on about the legal system. If you don't have stab wounds, your in a world of hurt without a room for of judges and nuns as witnesses to her attacking you first. Even then, it's dicey. Kisshu fushin, Oni te hotoke kokoro.
