I'm also trying to get her into Brazilian jiu-jitsu as well, so if she ever finds herself in the unfortunate situation of being attacked when I'm not around, she'll likely be doing the bone breaking with a well timed armbar.
Genuine nice, civilized American men can enjoy co-ed sports with their female friends, girlfriends, and spouses because they enjoy the time and activity together. They don't insult them by telling them that they can't in some circumstances play with the guys because "their bodies are only for makin' babies."
You and savagesusie spout condescending crap.
You sort of repeated what I said. Nice American men protect women. The real world, the non-Christian world, isn’t safe for women like your wife.
she must be in the top .25% of women or the guys she plays against suck.... before you get her into "grappling" self defense I hope you realize that even if she were attacked and lucky enough to get someone in an arm-bar, ankle lock, choke hold that someone strong enough can pick her up and slam her back first into the deck, unless she's a horse... but since she can smoke men in B-ball she might be a hefty chick.
I had the same type of BS pulled on me by an instructor that made a big deal about beating on guys because of her training. I didn't choke her out but her face was awful purple, the snot was coming out of her nose while she tried to breath through her teeth and the vein in the middle of her forehead stuck out like a hose. I even let her get on top and straddle me the second time. My point is that in a "real" competition the aggressive nature and superior upper body strength of men usually wins out. Otherwise you'd see women in the NBA, MLB, NFL and my favorite Mixed martial arts.
The only place that women beat men is in Hollywood, Cable/Network Television, Broadway and Angelina Jolie movies. All places inhabited by girly men with sexual identity issues trying to make all men metrosexual eunuchs.
I like coed sports, like mixed tennis leagues, soft ball and jogging/triathalons etc.. but when it comes to full contact sports where I'm trying to really win I'd rather not have to kick a woman's ass. Cause its' not a good thing to hurt a lady and whether you win or lose you still look like a d#ck beating a woman.
Heck I ended up losing to the female instructor in the long run, cause I ended up in "office hours" and was lucky that was the end of it.
Wow.
You seriously have no clue.
You’ve seen your wife spike on men in a volleyball game.
Great. So that totally negates the greater than one sigma advantage in upper body strength and speed that men have on women.
BTW, did you know that lots of women get hurt or killed each year trying to defend themselves from perps using the fancy martial arts that they wasted thousands of dollars learning?
I’d seen women with black belts get creamed by “average Joes” with no martial arts training, but who could bench press 250 lbs. (which is not actually that much, considering).
This nonsense about women being physical equal with men is simply bilious mental masturbation. If it were true, then the entirety of gender roles throughout history would not be what they were.
Sure, sure, there are always going to be some women who can run faster or whatnot than some men. That’s because there is some overlap of the bell curves. Nevertheless, no matter how fast or strong a woman may be, she is not going to be faster or stronger than a man who engages in similar levels of working out and training. An female olympian can easily outrun a middle-aged male accountant with a spare tire. She will, however, pretty much ALWAYS get beat by a male olympian in the same sport.
Hey, I could run circles around crippled men too. You missed my point....coed games are for fun and men need to watch out for the girls....if the athletic women play against an athletic man-—ranked the same by their sex-—like the best woman in the sport against the best man in the same sport....the man would KILL the woman and you know it. There is no equivalence in men and women when it comes to the best of each sex. Sure, you could find some nerd that any women can beat. Then my daughter as age 12 could be most grown men who never played “her” sport.
This idea that men and women are equal in strength comes from MARX. It is a BIG LIE. My daughter with a full scholarship to play sports at UM would have been killed if her team played against a male team and they played to win.
