Girls, Why are self defense class primarily targeting women?

[noemiii]

I mean, I would think the reason is obvious.

And last time I checked, men prefer to be more tactical which is why most firearm or weapon related defense is catered to them.

That is true. I just signed up for a self defense martial art and its kinda awkward since its mostly women and they are not shy about practicing groin shots

[CrabCakes11]

Boo boo. You’re doing martial arts

[DishLady]

As the “weaker sex” (lower upper body strength) the MMA teaches us to kick our predators like angry mules (as opposed to our Mamas teaching is to talk a person to death). Either way the predator’s got something coming. 😂

[Asker]

Hahah very true! I take krav maga and have been on the recieving end of a few brutal groin kicks

[Asker]

Haha what do you mean? Do you train in any martial arts?

Because women are more likely to be attacked because we are seen as being the physically weaker and more vulnerable sex.

Better wear a cup

[Asker]

I do! But those women kick hard and it still can hurt through a cup! Do women expect it not to hurt!

[mandyfire98]

I'd say if women are kicking a guy there then they know it hurts

[Asker]

It’s just embarrassing if we’re doing training and a woman kicks me there and I drop to the mat and need a few min to recover. They look like they are annoying I can’t get back up right away and start the next drill

[northerngal]

There are plenty of self defense and martial arts classes for both genders.

[Asker]

Yeah that’s true, I take a self defense martial art class but it’s mostly women so it’s kinda weird at times

[CrabCakes11]

How is it weird? Do women scare you?

[Lowiu]

Because were at a biological disadvantage and at the same time victims at a high chance

[CrabCakes11]

Because generally women are weaker and need more self defense training to defeat a man

[Anonymous]

Because a lone woman outside is the type most targeted by attackers.

[Asker]

Do you think self defense classes are helpful?

[laly520]

women r targeted by abusers the most
