"I think we will almost all come to the same perception of femininity and masculinity due to our cultural condtruction of them, and I definitely think it impacts on our body behaviours as well..." Cultural conditioning did not tell me what feels nice. And I like soft and curved. Even fit and toned women manage to retain that softness which men lack. | |||

"I was walking through town with a young girl (17) the other week, and she was boy spotting, pointing to all these skinny hipsters with their big glasses going 'he's hot!' every time she saw one. Now I'm fine with girls having crushes and finding certain guys cute, but I was moved to ask her that if a group of d*unken, rowdy guys confronted her in the street, a shop, a pub etc, do you really think these skinny pretty boys could protect you...?" She was after a hot looking guy, not robocop | |||

"do you really think these skinny pretty boys could protect you...?" I'm about as skinny as they get on Fab, my muscles are less than half the size of yours. And I wear skinny jeans. I also study three different martial arts and have a range of medals gained from putting them into practice. I would quite confidently put my speed, technique and training against someone larger and slower than me. I don't see size as a masculine trait. | |||

What makes you think they can't? My ex was a skinny teenager when I met him who wore drainpipe jeans,as was his brother. They were more than capable of beating the shit out of bigger men,and I mean men not other teenagers. Not condoning violence as I don't like it but I've seen a skinny man knock out a pub full of men. He had a proper punch on him,his grandad was a bare knuckle fighter. | |||

Yes it certainly did not tell you what feels nice but it certainly impacts the individual to pursuit a certain body type to fit in our preceptions of what one or the other should look like... | |||

And no, this isn't going to be this week's GUNS SHOWDOWN. Just making the point that size does not equal masculinity. | |||

I think my love of cake led me to pursue a soft and curved body rather than my desire to look feminine | |||

"The other week, I was heckled by a couple of d*unks in a rough part of town. Though they were a nasty looking pair of fuckers, I still confronted them, to which they then shit themselves and apologised profusely - I couldn't have done this were I not the size I am. It's not always about the fighting, it's as much about LOOKING like someone who you wouldn't want to fight with, and that to me is the true way to protect a woman, to be someone no one would even dream of picking a fight with." And again, that doesn't have to come from size. It comes from the way you look and feel. If you personally gain that confidence from the size you are; great. You don't have to be that size to make someone walk the other way with a word and a look. | |||

You see this is an attitude that I've never been able to understand, the fact that some women see a natural, healthy male desire to protect and watch out for his partner as being somehow derogatory toward her, rather than him simply wishing to fulfil his time tested role as a man, and display his love and respect for her in doing so? | |||

From experience I can say it doesn't matter if your sexybrians size or thing two's skill when 4 or 5 guys jump you which is the way these people fight it doesn't matter it isn't like the movies me where they all come one by one, at some point your gonna fall or get dragged to the ground then your going get kicked, you're going feel pain, you're going feel your bones break and if your lucky your going to wake up the next day with tubes in most of your holes.

For me - if I was heckled whilst out drinking id remove myself from the situation, doesn't matter how big and hard you look/act. If you go over to these nasty looking fuckers and they decide to bottle you. You're going down It's all well and good going up and confronting people, until you confront the wrong one and get your arse handed to you. It takes a bigger man to walk away | |||

I just don't agree that it is "the true way to protect a woman". There are many ways you can protect someone, and many needs which need to be protected. I wouldn't feel safe out with someone who although had big muscles, didn't have any presence or know how to handle themselves without becoming confrontational. I would much rather be taken away from the situation. Or, if the man continued to put on his gun show, I would remove myself, therefore protect myself. | |||

All some guy had to do was to say something suggestive and he would be willing to kill. I used to be worried sick for him all the time | |||

I stopped because a climbing injury meant every punch resulted in my right shoulder falling out her socket, but that seems fixed now. Picked up a back injury in a Couple of bike crashes since then but now I work nights it's hard to find a class. I would love to get back into a marital art I like the physical/mental discipline they teach, putting everything into each motion but at the same time never wasting energy/overcommiting. It's basically the exact opposite of my personality and so something I find very difficult and weirdly because of that I find it interacting. Things I'm good at I get bored off. | |||

"I would love to get back into a marital art I like the physical/mental discipline they teach, putting everything into each motion but at the same time never wasting energy/overcommiting. It's basically the exact opposite of my personality and so something I find very difficult and weirdly because of that I find it interacting. Things I'm good at I get bored off." This is pretty much why I favour TKD over other martial arts (I do kickboxing also to be able to put TKD into practice against a more direct approach). But any martial art has elements of this. | |||

Might look into tkd but like I say working 8 till 6 am cuts out most classes for me. I like the gym for the pure fact that iron doesn't care who you are it's the same for everyone. | |||

"I was walking through town with a young girl (17) the other week, and she was boy spotting, pointing to all these skinny hipsters with their big glasses going 'he's hot!' every time she saw one. Now I'm fine with girls having crushes and finding certain guys cute, but I was moved to ask her that if a group of d*unken, rowdy guys confronted her in the street, a shop, a pub etc, do you really think these skinny pretty boys could protect you...?" to be fair is a group of d*unken rowdy guys confronted her in the street I doubt any one guy could protect her, do you really think you could take on a group of men and win?  | |||

I doubt diplomacy will aid you much if you're ever being physically assaulted in the street. There's also a big difference between random acts of violence toward strangers, and a restrained use of it in self defence or that of a loved one. | |||

" Just for what it's worth as well... I know a skinny guy with glasses and a man-bun. Basically, one of those guys that you describe. He represents his country at full-contact Medieval style fighting. You know, the kind where they wear plate harnesses and hit each other with real steel weapons. And he does mixed martial arts. And boxing. I suspect that's where alot of guys on the street go wrong though. They believe that certain types of people can't defend themselves and therefore that's who they choose to pick on. Looks can be decieving. | |||

Though as I mentioned further up, being able to avoid a confrontation altogether, simply because you LOOK like someone who'd win, is better than having to actually fight and prove it. An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. | |||

If someone is kicking in someone's head in front of you nothing short of violence or basically waiting for them to get tired/bored is going to stop them and save the person being assaulted | |||
