By not putting myself in danger in the first place. By being able to read a situation and knowing when to leave.

Neither. I’ve never had to protect my self alone so I haven’t really thought about it

I just tell people if I'm going out late. Haven't been in a position where I needed to protect myself.

Is it weird that I’m uncomfortable sparring with girlS? I grew up being taught to never hit a girl

It's not weird, and it's still a pretty prevalent double standard in today's world. I'm not saying go out and punch someone in the face, but don't be afraid to defend yourself if need be.

Yeah but what about in a class sparring? I know the girls want to be there but I feel guilty hitting

It's sparring, the point is to put your skills into practice. Holding yourself back doesn't help you learn to properly land blows, nor does it help her learn how to properly defend from attacks

That’s true I guess I just thought I’d looked like a dick if someone got hurt.

They don’t have a problem going for the groin though lol

I’m not trying to do, but some of the women are fierce, and don’t go easy. Groin is a legal target it krav and they aren’t gentle w it
