How My Autistic Game and Massive Thirst Got Me Kicked out of Krav Maga [re-titled]

[The Stronger Sex]

Every time I read a thread like this I wonder "Why don't these things happen to me?". Assuming they're not trolls I think some people are looking for an excuse to whine so they don't have to take a look at themselves. "Waaaah! The big bad SJWs and feminazis are cramping my game!"

In this particular case the OP's line sounds quite cringey, and the cringe factor would be multiplied if he gives out a creepy/aspie vibe and/or he doesn't know the girl well. You don't say stuff like that unless you get some feedback that tells you that you can.

If you don't get away with it you're not doing it right. Instead of crying "unfair" try to take home some lessons and do better next time.

I'm glad someone bumps this thread every couple of months or so.

Reviewing my life, I see situations' patterns, situations which tend to repeat themselves.
Not the exact same ones, but in a larger sense.
Having a reminder of my past mistakes is a really good deterrent, for not making them twice.

Thanks for contributing to that.

This is a great thread.

There's a good chance that the instructors are in the business just to try game the women who show up. If you are trying to game them, you are trespassing on his "turf."

I was in tae kwon do for a while. I couldn't believe how many belts we had. It was:

white
senior white
yellow
senior yellow
orange
senior orange
green
senior green
blue
senior blue
purple
senior purple
brown
senior brown
red
senior red
black

The senior belts all had a black stripe added. Each belt had a test that you paid for as well. The teacher was very good, although some egoes got in the way of him and another instructor. I was enjoying it a lot, until he left town and sold the place.

He had a mix of kids and adults. I was once holding a bag for a boy about the age of ten. I was trying to get the boy fired up, so I called him a "badass." Next week, I got a lecture about it.

There was only one or two women there to game. The only thing you should do in this situation is ask the woman if she would like to meet up away from class. If she says no, don't ask again for at least six months.

Yeah Shotokan Karate has just as many belts

Ps on an unrelated note. Is there a martial art game thread? There is this cute little gymnast in my capoiera class and I'm trying to figure out how to mac on her. She looks just like Chloe Moretz yall.

RE: How My Autistic Game and Massive Thirst....

Like in the workplace, avoid women as much as possible in "self defense" classes if your objective is actually to learn useful combative skills. In other countries, maybe jokes are not as big of a deal but I presume we are talking about the modern West and not about those other places. I agree with Tuthmosis regarding how you could better handle things like this in the future but, frankly, I'd say that such a place is not even worth spending money at to learn "self defense" in as it is clearly just another safe space where the instructors are comfortable with lying to your face about reality even if it might cause you to die at some point down the line and you would do better to start your own all-male fight club where you and some other guys spar in secret and practice techniques you have learned from videos on the internet. Frankly, though you crossed some lines with the sex jokes (lines which, though they may not have existed a few decades ago do exist now) and some of your lines veered on the creepy side, any "self defense" class that has women in it is almost certainly BS and not worth spending money or time in even if there were no fear of becoming persona non grata for making a bad joke.

In the meantime, don't bother trying to point out hypocrisy or make appeals to justice or logic. SJWs are beyond that. Let the fat women and soyboys be lied to by the authority figures they trust most about how they are just as strong as a man and how their techniques, which they have never practiced under stress or against resistance, will enable them to subdue a violent attacker who does not care what he has to do to get the money for his next hit. You are under no obligation to help them.
