Are women's self defense classes a waste of time?

[Anonymous]

To me if a guy is twice your size there isn't really much that you can do. Especially if he attacks you from behind or he also has combat skills himself.

Yes they are a waste of time

No they aren't a waste of time

They are, but so are men's self defense classes. The neatly choreographed sequence of events done in slow motion for demonstration that they depict in these classes do not work out there in unscripted environments. People don't just stand there and let you go through your self defense routine step by step. Street fights are chaotic, quick, and unpredictable. A lot of wrestling, grappling and it's usually very close quarters. People claw and bite and kick and grab objects to use as weapons. Sometimes their friends jump in. It's messy on the street. My advice to you if a man grabs you from behind is to bite into him wherever you can and bite hard. . . bite to rip out his flesh. Biting is very painful, that's why we fear dogs because they bite. Flail at his eyes too if you can. Ever try and get hold of a feral cat? I have. That little creature tore my forearms to pieces with its claws and teeth. So get dirty. Basically fight like a cat does. Get those fingernails into his eyeballs too if you can. And when he let's go, run. Get some place safe. Just get away after that.

Skill is more important than size.

Twist their pinky a certain way, they will flip themselves.

That’s why you buy a gun and learn to use it.
