Ever since I was raped by two men I always carry a Smith & Wesson 36LS, the "LadySmith", in my handbag. The next  who tries anything like that gets it into his balls.

They were never caught. It happened after a Peter Hammill concert, of all things. I went there alone (none of my friends wanted to accompany me, because no-one liked Peter Hammill; I didn't know Jean back then). These guys must have been at the concert too and followed me when I was on my way to the next tram station. ------------- BaldJean and I; I am the one in blue. |

good old street fighting technique with some very surprising things/moves >> never last more than a few seconds. A mix of aikido, wresting and dirty no rules fighting >> can even include eyes poking, and foot smashing These guys (this is exceptionally rare, because I rarely have to defend myself) never knew what happened to them, they have no rememberances of the ambulance taking them to the hospital , and they took a few days to come out of it. Some still probably have sequels of brushing with my safety. All remember the drubbing, though. I am not as quick today, though ------------- let's just stay above the moral melee prefer the sink to the gutter keep our sand-castle virtues content to be a doer as well as a thinker, prefer lifting our pen rather than un-sheath our sword |

Hmm... youre one tough guy huh.. You mean, like the Steven Segal type of fighting?? -------------

certainly not a tough guy!!! but when someone is out for me menacing my safety, then I take no chance, he strikes me once and I make sure he does not a second time, I remove him for a long time from being aggressive to anyone. >>> generally the guys I beat up in my life (not more than 10 and the last one some 10 years ago, and he was bothering three others before me), all were the tough guys looking for trouble and they expected me to be an easy prey especially with my calm attitude >> this is a great advantage (for me, that is I hate violence , so I avoid those type of movies (I think I never saw one Segal movie) ------------- let's just stay above the moral melee prefer the sink to the gutter keep our sand-castle virtues content to be a doer as well as a thinker, prefer lifting our pen rather than un-sheath our sword |

About 7/8 years ago I was a brown & double white belt in karate. Basically... The next belt was black... yet for some stupid reason I quit. Anyhow, skip to today, as a pro-wrestler I use a lot of kicks in my asenal (Although I'm nowhere near as good as I was 10 years ago) though I do still use some impressive looking kicks.
I'd love to take up Capoaria or whatever it's called though. VERY impressive looking stuff.
