More Ass-Kicking Bubble Gum

[Guest]

We did it! We did it! We did it!

*ahem*

Earlier this evening my 9-year-old daughter and I kicked the snot out of an evil attacker.

Well, OK - he isn't really evil, he just plays one on TV.

It was the culmination of our women's self defense class from the Y. A visiting sensei dressed himself in padding from head to toe and "attacked" each member of the class multiple times.

It was wild. The adrenaline really gets pumping even though it is pretend. You could see people forgetting to breathe while they were throwing punches or kicks, forgetting to run away after they disabled the attacker, etc. Nobody froze up, though, and everybody remembered to yell "NO!" and "BACK OFF!!".

And my daughter did great! I thought she would be too afraid or freaked out by the situation but she remembered what she learned in class. She knew what to do, and for a little shit she has a pretty good groin kick!

Yea!!!!

(I'm very proud even though I hope to hell she never has to use that training.)

Every little girl should be able to do more than just snap her bubble gum to protect herself.

You gave your daughter a valuable gift, and had fun into the bargain.

Thank you -

It's wonderful to see her self-confidence growing.

With statistics of 1 in 4 women attacked, I hope she retains enough of the training to be useful.

It was also a pretty terrific mom-daughter thing to do.

(Hey - when I was a kid I never got to fight the bad guy with MY mom!)

I thought it was about violent bubble gum too, which always scares the heck out of me. "You Rule Sarahh And Your Daughter Too!!" Do you go back for more classes or are you both fully trained butt-kickers now?

LOL

Well, we're done with the self-defense course.

I take karate (and have for a few years) and now I think my daughter is finally going to start classes too.

(Yea!)

Useless information

There is a Yahoo Group called trapsandperils.

In it the group owner has put one of his stories about fatal bubble-gum that induces uncontrollable orgasms before smothering the victim.

Easier than self-defence lessons?

Well, the first part of that certainly sounds great!


But no self-defense lessons? No, thanks!

(I enjoy hand and body grappling wayyyy too much!)
