I know what the martial artists here mean regarding sparring with women. However, it's one thing to "hit her" or "arm-bar her" and another to "tear her bloody jaw off its hinges".

If the SHTF and you are in true survival mode, you will see everyone as being "resource hungry" and after your resources.


I'm fairly sure the whole point of this forum is to do our best not to let that happen.

Honestly, Rodion, I think your instinct would kick in.


My instinct is to serve and protect. I'm so screwed. frown

Having grown up with tomboys as a kid, and spending my teenage and young adult years with punks and metal-heads I know EXACTLY how dangerous a woman can be. Also bouncing as a side job for 10 years or so has reinforced my healthy respect for the fairer sex. The worst ladies to deal with when bouncing were the drunk lesbians....they ALWAYS wanted to fight, and ya can't hit one without all of em wanting to jump in...
Seems when they get drunk they get that chip on their shoulder that no MAN is gonna tell them what to do, that they aren't afraid to fight, etc...

Any cop will tell you that two things can make you look stupid or hurt you faster than any others: dogs and women. So if push comes to shove, shove hard and fast, be it man or women. And shoot the dog...

Any guy that has been witness to an all out cat fight quickly learns what no hold barred really means.

Truly vicious.

I do not deceive myself.

The reason men are generally referred to as the ones you need to defend yourself against is men tend to be the aggressor. And more apt to have a shorter fuse. It takes more to get a women going but once they tart look out.

In physical confrontations, there is no comparison between men and women. On the average, I would find it much easier to fend off an attack from a woman than a man.
