Martial arts question for females who do Martial arts or know one that does?

Question

do women who do martial arts and are able to subdue men that are bigger then them

ever go on dates with guys the cant defend themselfs at all

Answer 1

to fall in love it doesnt matter if one person is stronger or if one person depends on the other. its about the feelings in ure hearts.

Answer 2

Martial arts can be equally as effective for women because the higher understanding is that force, power and strength are not the most important factors.

For instance, my Taijiquan (Tai Chi) teacher is female and about 5ft 4inches tall yet she can subdue a man twice her size with ease. Of course this level can take many years to attain but practically any martial art will teach you how to be 'soft' with your techniques so that you can use the opponent's momentum of force to defeat themselves by using an understanding of the body's movement.

Answer 3

Well, I'm 6ft tall, so it's not like height is a huge problem for me. I train with guys all the time, and I'm on an even playing field with them.

I have been on dates with guys who can't defend themselves, but not very often. I usually go out with guys who have the same interests as me, which includes working out and martial arts. Although I have an interest in music and art, etc. which means I get to know a lot of really quiet, scrawny guys (but some of the musicians are pretty cocky).

Answer 4

I would agree and listen to Timothy N if I were you.

Answer 5

I do know of some women who are able to defend themselves against men that are much bigger than them. I would recommend Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu because you can manipulate a person's joint movement regardless of the size of the person. There's nothing like being able to cut off the blood supply to the brain or breaking the arm or cranking the neck with a submission hold. I would also recommend Judo because you would be able to take down the bigger man by using the throws. It's not really tripping as you would expect it to be. It's extremely useful.

Answer 6

Oh h**l yes there are women who have more than enough capability to knock a guy of any size out! I was on the receiving end of one of those blows.

It was about 9 months into the second year of Krav, and well, my instructor wanted me to help him test this woman. My job was to hold her from behind and place a (fake) gun to her head like she was a hostage.

Well long story short, she got the disarm right, so right that she brought the elbow around to my jaw and put me out for a second, which means it was a helluva blow because I've taken a shot in the jaw from a boxer and not gone down.

So long story short, if you're good enough, it doesn't matter how big the other guy is or what the gender is.

Answer 7

Of course we can !

Answer 8

Yes. In one case I know of one who married a guy who couldn't fight well.

He is taking classes now.

Answer 9

Yes, why not?

My husband is 'one of those guys'.
