I have always been of the opinion that women should be able and willing to defend themselves-regardless of the state of the men around them.Imo it is every person's duty to defend themselves-and their pack.
In general we had mixed sparring but not in the tournements, ten of which I attended. Kung fu I loved for the styling and technique and the forms are beautiful.

Even in Korean martial arts they segregate the men and women in sparring matches. Oh how sexist right? But a grandmaster did give me the option of sparring with the guys.
In my uncle's BJJ school we often have mixed sparring. Some of these women would beat most guy's brains in.

I do find it odd that the left has spent decades pushing the PC narrative on the public, but suddenly have no problem welcoming foreign cultures with ideologies that are fundamentally the polar opposite of what they have been fighting for.
It's a conundrum.
One way to conquer a country is to feminise the native males both on a mental level and on a chemical level.

And yet the people I see with those hairstyles are neither warriors 'nor barbarians or samurai heading into battle, are they? An astronaut in a space suit on the moon is different to a non-astronaut in a space suit on Earth. Think of it as the difference between wearing sandals in Hawaii or Antarctica.
Masculinity along with femininity are societal constructions of human design. It changes with time. What was true 10,000 years ago is not necessarily true today, even what was true only ten years ago is not necessarily true today. Pink was once the color of boys/men and blue the color of girls/ladies, but that is not no longer the case.

The idea is not that females are weak......but males have been made weak as part of conformity. Sadly "society" has undertaken this endeavor to "define" while at the same time peddling that some are "born" like this or that. Just don't ever claim to be a type a male that was born like that or you will be taken to the "learned behavior" wood shed.

Females aren't weak, but feminised males are? You are not making any sense.
I'm a feminine male (or at least I consider myself one) and I think they're stupid, too.
