Who here really thinks that high kicks were originally designed to kick people off their horses? I mean, come on, how bloody stupid.

I reckon someone writing a book about MAs just made that up, and because no one else knew why all these high kicks had been developed, everyone bleated the same old crap.
Sounds familiar with karate.Every one believes the old crap about how katas were meant as a way to practice hidden techniques capable of defending oneself.The old belief of katas being useful is just that old and garbage.
