Default MT: OK, so I'm not a woman...

OK, so I'm not a woman... By kidswarrior - Thu, 12 Apr 2007 03:53:39 GMT

=========

But am asking for permission to intrude on your private reserve in order to pose a question.

But first, my bona fides. Yes, I'm a man, married a loooong time, but my only child is female (now an adult 'child'--your children are your children regardless of their age ). So, I'm pretty heavily vested in righting the institutionalized inequities, etc. that exist. Just a glimpse into how that process worked: I spent from the time she was 4 until she was 26 watching her participate in every sport available to girls/women. Her teams were usually good enough for the regional playoffs, but not quite for state (California's a big state). Which meant I stood/sat/waded/and leaned into wind gusts to watch and cheer soccer, Shotokan, cross country, soccer, track, basketball, and soccer, through scorching summers and drenching winters for two decades. Anyway, does this possibly qualify me to pop in from time to time? I'll be cool (well-trained and all that). :ultracool

So, the reason I came by is to ask, has anyone read Kung Fu for Girls: Self Defense with Style, by Simon Harrison? I love it, and wanted a female take on it beforer recommending it to others.

Thanks all.

Are you asking if you should train?

Get your doctor's permission first, but IMO HELL YEAH!
