So you are telling me your class teaches girls to fight off multiple male attackers on only a part time curriculum?

LOL

Don't knock it 'til you try it :P .

It's more or less true that your average ass-hole assailant isn't a full time Muay Thai practitioner who can knock these women out in one or two punches, so having any training at all is an advantage over having no training, compared to both another victim and the attackers themselves.

As my instructors are keen to point out, though: no amount of training will guarantee one's safety. It only betters your odds.

Yet a women is so physically inferior to men that it is almost impossible to get them up to standard to fight men. I am almost 3 times the size of my wife, and I am not the biggest man on the street and she is not the smallest women. Perhaps training could let a female land a quick blow to a throat on an unlucky individual, but to suggest anything short of a professional fighting female can deal with a multiple of 3 males which together form 6 times her own body weight is just deusional - that is serious supergirl stuff...

I had no Idea you where married Tenchu, me too

While I don't agree with that sexist statement, I do think women need to pack a little more heat than men. Even I carry a 700 volt Tazer and I'm a professional Martial Artist.

Professional means you can or once did substanciate a living and career from the skill at hand.

I dont know everything about you but I would say you are an 'experienced' martial artist, not professional. Sorrys.

Anyway, women dont have no testosterone, which means not only their muscles can not grow like mens without this chemical, but they are also poorer quality. Also, they lack anger, which is a large part of fighting. I.e. speed and aggression. This is just fact, and the fact men are on average at least 2/3 the size of women is also fact, and not worth arguing. Also, the shape of the hips of women has been kept from physical superiority because they must remain the inferior shape in order to give birth. We are the only animals that give birth to young that have unfully formed skulls, this is because although evolution has tried to make women as best as possible, even by deforming their young, it ultimatly has trouble adapting to a 2 legged species. Women are not built as well as men for athleticness.

There is also a mental issue with the different thought patterns of men above women that happen to be more martially minded, yet that is a fine line and not true in enough cases to be ruled as fact, so I will let that be.

Yet do you honestly think you are not at a disadvantage?

Like I said, it is only extreme cases of full time training that can allow women to take down multiple targets in a swift and professional manner same like men can with only half the training.

On the up side, women are more intuitive, which is also a benefit of a good fighter.

Tenchu, you know, as much as I disagree with some (or most) of the things you said, I guess I do need to take back some of the thing I said about you before, mostly from this particular post, there are are many things that I do agree to. I guess you are just more aggressive and competitive in nature, especially when it comes to MA

I strongly agree to what you said about the difference between "experience professional".

I believe all people will come to the realization that I am number 1 with given time. That is all it takes; time.

Stay around this forum long enough and you shall witness the birth of a God!

No joking.
