No. You're taking it in the wrong way.

It's as similar to dance as it is to car racing, kite flying, snorkling, sky diving, anything that defines a person.

Um... no.. komitsuki made the connection when it came to self-expression. Also dancers train to perfect bodily techniques... just like martial artists. Furthermore dancers also strain to condition their bodies.

But dance, woah... that's just gay. Just because dance is based around self expression, it does not mean it's related to anything that you express yourself in.

You're just trying to twist my words now to piss me off... again. You never thought this before I mentioned it.

I'm not trying to piss you off Tenchu... I get it!

Dancers with guns own martial artists in a fight and express themselves better than martial artists. :rolleyes:

So there you have it kids!

No. If it's a fist fight, an untrained person doesn't stand a chance.

I get it. You're talking from experience. Your MA class must look something like this:

Pure, untainted self expression.

De ja vu!

That's what I said about the dancing. They're both expressing the self. These are drag queen dancers, Ronin.

Do you see my point?

But do you think drag queens never practice? Not to mention the time and effort they put into their costumes to help express how they are inside...

Doesn't it remind you of ametuer Boxing?

It doesn't remind me of that...

Second of all... If I were going to give a martial arts equivalent of a drag queen..... I suppose it would be the same as me putting on a ninja turtle costume...

Third... you don't need to convince me that Martial arts and Dance are different... I mean that goes without saying. I don't know why you have a problem with me (actually it was komitsuki but I agree with him) making a connection between the two. I think it's because you're an idiot who thinks himself a modern day Spartan or Gladiator who is of the mindset that dancing is "gay". This is why any comparison with dance offends you because in your narrow mind, your masculinity is being challenged with that link (when in fact it's not).

Fourth... did I mention you're an idiot?

Uhhh... the Spartan approach. I was waiting for you to get to there... so original.

That's like the least relevant response to my post you could've made without sounding batsh*t insane.

Well done Tenchu... you usually just sound batsh*t insane.
