We all have different experiences growing up, but most of us are brought up to believe that boys are stronger than girls and men stronger than women. I realised this wasn't true from an early age as virtually every real life situation that I experienced or witnessed hanging out with my sister and her friends ran contrary to this. They were tough, but they weren't tomboys, they just knew they were tougher than the boys in the neighbourhood and they took great delight in demonstrating it at every opportunity. Even older boys were scared of them. So to me this seemed normal after a while and it is hard to identify a specific point of realisation. I do have some interesting experiences e-mailed to me from guys though and I will post one or two of these...
Does anyone else have any stories they would like to share of when they first realised females were actually the stronger sex?

When i was around 12 my neighbor Lindsey beat the shit out of my friend and his cousin really bad in the same day! Never forget that, it sure changed me a lot because after witnessing that, I never thought I could be that scared and afraid of girl! Especially a girl almost a year younger than me.
ReplyDeleteGo Lindsey!! I bet your friend and his cousin never forgot it either?
DeleteOh heck no my friend lost some of his teeth and to this day still says that's the worst he's ever been beaten up! I'm sure his cousin hasn't forgot either as she had him running home crying. I'm just glad I wasn't next! Lol
DeleteWhen I was around the same age I can relate, because I got beat up very badly by a girl classmate in a locker room without any teachers around. I found out the hard way, she had me screaming and crying so loud until finally someone heard me and made her stop. Even my dad said "thats what you get for assuming just because a girl is pretty that she can't still beat you up"
DeleteInteresting, makes sense.
DeleteIt makes sense because that's exactly how it is. Girls in general are better to look at than boys, and on this blog we 've seen countless proof about girls being much stronger and athletically more skilled. There you have it, point proved.
Deletei realised it in 1 special occasion as a child, watching a documentary.
ReplyDelete2 scuba divers (who were sea biologists) a man and a woman, had the mission to catch each a giant octopus alive (around 200 lbs/90 kg) for research porpuses. those are strong animals so they had to really wrestle them...surprisingly (but not now that i realised it lol) the man was having an hard time with the task, while the woman easily grabbed and overpowered the octopus while squeezing it with her muscles.
And how did that thing evade censoring? Mmm, looks like we 're making steps forward after all...
Deleteit was a documentary about sea life from some years ago by cousteau...so it was the first eye opener for me as a child..but, to answer your question, i don't really know. she used wrestling moves on the octopus btw since in the water is difficult to hit effectively and since the octopus does not have bones; she had a quite athletic strong body of course.
DeleteOf course, a trained body is necessary for physically difficult missions...
Deletei do have part of that documentary anyway. if there is some interest in it, i can give the link
Deletebtw, if it could be somehow interesting, i have the link of the video

DeleteI learned about it when one of my friend was matched up to fight against a girl. There were a lot of people watching as no one seen a male and female fight before. Most of us would have expected the guy to win easily but she knocked him out. This is the first time i captured the notion of female superiority. In the coming matches i would learn about girls physical advantage through being defeated by a girl smaller size than me.
ReplyDeleteI came to realise the truth at an early age, since I started working out at age 4 and soon saw results from that: about two months after starting to work out, I had become visibly stronger than my brother, despite him being 8 at the time. Now he can't even look at my eyes without trembling a bit, even though I 've never attempted to turn against him (my strength advantage was proved by other things, such as unscrewing jars for him). Did I say jars? At some time I was at my aunt's, who had big troubles with jars. When I saw her struggle with one, I told her "Just believe that you can do it, and try again". She did what I advised her to do and opened it easily. She's never had that trouble again.
ReplyDeleteExactly, women don't lack physical strength, they just think they do because throughout their lives they are bombarded with subtle messages from the media and society in general which make them think they are weak or supposed to be weak - after years of this they actually start to believe it.
DeleteThis is so wrong because the superior physicality exists already - all you need to do is believe in it!

DeleteDid you really start worhin out at 4 or did you mean 14? if you started so early then there is no doubt you are stronger. have you also beaten other boys when you were in school? and how easy was it for you?
DeleteCheers
Yes, I started working out at the age of four. By the age of fourteen I already had ten years of everyday workout experience. At school, as I was the main anti-bully, I beat a lot of boys - as the vast majority of violent bullies consists of boys. All of them with great ease, sometimes taking on three and four at the same time, as bullies often work in groups rather than alone.
DeleteSay hello to yet another anti-bully.
DeleteStriker
Hi Striker,
DeleteHave you also beaten a lot of bullies?
As many as I got to notice, haven't bothered to count them.
DeleteStriker
Hellfirequeen, thank for your interesting comments. Surely the greatest barrier to women's strenght is the creation of traditional roles early on- in the family. Can you tell us a bit more about how it played out when it became apparent you were the stronger sibling, ie, how did it change the relationship between you, and was there any resistance?
ReplyDelete(Answering to illyrian67 - the reply buttons don't work) Truth is that my brother had a lot of difficulties dealing with the truth at first, but he eventually managed to deal with it and we soon went back to normal. Until then though there was resistance, indeed, but I did not see any impenetrable difficulties in bending it. And I feel that bending his resistance made him a better person. He's a lot more respectful now, not only towards me, but on a general level.
ReplyDeletethat sounds interesting. I'm happy that your brother aknowledges your superiority. i wonder how did you manage to bend his resistance? was it through a fight?
Deletethat sounds interesting. I'm happy that your brother aknowledges your superiority over him. I wonder how did you bend his resistance? was through a fight?
DeleteNo, it wasn't something momentary at all. It happened slowly, gradually. And I think this was the best way to get the job done.
DeleteOops, that's exactly "the way of the perfect fighting machine": constant pressure until the job is done...
DeleteRegarding this topic, I had many eye-opening moments. The first of them happened when I was at junior-high school. A guy was annoying me and I didn't really have any idea what to do, but suddenly a female classmate of mine came with fast, angry steps and with a very quick move put him down. That guy never annoyed me again.
ReplyDeleteWhen I was 14 and a girl named Holly beat me up on a playground so bad she had me literally screaming and crying for her to stop. She finally let me go after dragging me by the hair and into a puddle of water. She made a example out of me and had the other boys who were there fearful of her too from that day onward.
ReplyDeleteHow old was Holly then? I don't really like that she pulled your hair. If I have to drag someone, I go for a proper grip, for example just below the armpits. I don't see the need to pull anyone's hair, no matter what I want to do.
DeleteShe was 13 or 14. She did have me by the wrist at first but grabbed my hair when she got closer to the puddle. By that point I was spent and didn't have much fight left.
ReplyDeleteGirls tend to have a ruthless streak, which often shocks guys when they experience it first hand. One of the reasons why the female of the species is deadlier than the male....
DeleteFirst of all, sorry for the late reply. To our subject now, her age is at the limit of giving-or-not-giving reason for hair pulling, no matter how "spent" you might have been at that moment.
DeleteShe grabbed my hair for the most part to shove my crying bloody face in puddle of water.
DeleteI get that, but still she could choose to grab your ears, or the back of your neck for example.
DeleteI don't think cared about proper fight etiquette at the time. Lol
DeleteLet's just hope she finds the right person to tell her about it.
DeleteI got it handed to me bad, so I definitely got the brunt of first hand experience. Shoved face first in a puddle of water to rinse off all my blood and tears..I can remember hardly being able to walk after that too.
ReplyDeleteI realised my male inferiority only a few years ago, when I was hanging out with a girl, whom I knewed from our fitness boxing class, and her girlfriend. This girlfriend asked us, wether we could do a "show match" for her.
ReplyDeleteWe both had the same level of training (6 month fitness boxing), nevertheless she was in every kind better than me.
She was smarter, faster and more flexible. After a little bit playing with me, she tought me a precise lesson in female supremacy: she knocked me out. I was totally outclassed by her, and I had to admit, that under the same conditions the women are actually the stronger sex.
By the way, her girlfriend was so inspired by the easy KO-victory of a girl over a guy, that she joined a female boxing gym.
Great story, thanks for sharing.You see, girls don't need to be taught how to fight, their fighting instincts are natural and vastly superior to men's. Add to that any fitness and strength training and as a guy, you are in real trouble. Were you shocked? I love how the other girl was inspired to join a boxing gym - this is just how the message needs to spread....
DeleteSo, just 6 months after taking up fitness boxing, the girl is confident enough to play around in a fight, and then easily proceed to KO her male opponent. Do the math and tell me what 17 years of the same sport can do for her. (I 'll now see how good you 're at maths...)
DeleteOf course I was shocked. I am growned up with the typical gender roles ("girls are weak", "women can't fight", etc.).
ReplyDeleteTo say the truth, it was a very humiliating moment for me, when I realised,
that I was completely defeated by a girl, with an undisputable result.
It's very hard for us guys to accept our inferiority to the female gender.
Let's say after a half year of training, you have developed 50% of your potential,
after one year 70%, after two years 85% and so on.
The thing is 50% potential of a woman is higher than 50% potential of a guy,
and 100% potential of a woman is even much higher than 100% of a guy.
In my case, her supremacy was so evident, because she didn't knock me out
immediatly, what she had could have done without doubt, but she first played with me,
showing me her superiority, so i don't have the lame excuse, that the outcome was an accident.
Your potential-related maths are pretty correct, but I was basically referring to the factor of psychology (confidence, more specifically). If after just half a year she's confident enough to put so much reasoning in her tactics for a "playful" fight, try to estimate how she will be able to behave after 17 years of training.
DeleteSounds like you have accepted it well. I hear many stories like yours and most guys really struggle to come to terms with the facts, but life gets better when you accept that girls are just natrually better fighters than guys. It is difficult to take because it is the opposite of what we are all brought up to believe. I take it you weren't dumb enough to ask for a re-match? Do you still hang out with this girl? - how is she towards you now?
ReplyDeleteOh no, there was no rematch. I didn't wanted to be send to dreamland again.
ReplyDeleteI don't hang out with the girl any more, in the first time after my defeat my masculinity had got a severe damage, and so we didn't see much often again.
But I have her mail-adress and will ask her, about her perspective of our fight, may be she even has some photos of the knockout (I believe to remeber that her girlfriend took some with her mobile).
Very sensible. So did you avoid her after the fight? Don't you still go to boxercise classes? Indeed it might make for an interesting post if you can get her thoughts....and the photos....:)
DeleteI have recieved a mail from Claudia (the woman who knocked me out) and Anja (her girlfriend, who initialzed our "show match").
DeleteIf this mail is interesting for your blog, dear Xaan, I will post the english (Claudia, Anja and I are all german) translation of this mail here.
Thanks Axel, Please do, if you think it will be of interest?
DeleteHi Xaan, here is the mail from Claudia, I hope you like her thoughts.
DeleteDear Axel,
nice to hear from you after a long time [...]
I ko'ed a few guys in my boxing career (now I am training only with women in a female gym, because the men in my weight class are usually no match for me), and I have to say, that it was always very satisfying for me to KO my male opponents.
You know my feminist attitude and my firm conviction, that women are NOT weaker than men by nature.
I love this moment, when the boys recognize that they have been totally be defeated by a girl,
this mix of disbelieving astonishment and silly embarrassment!
Axel, You should have seen your face, when you came in after I knocked you out!
You wrote to me, that you felt "emasculated", this is to be sure the feeling of all of my male "victims", and was for me a strong motivation in my matches with men (smach patriarchy!).
You asked, whether it was my aim to KO you at our little "show match" in front of our friend Anja.
To say the truth, yes. We both had trained for just three or four weeks, and I was curious about my skills. I hoped to knock you down, but didn't expect to knock you out cold and was really shocked about the power of my punch. But after your recovery, I felt very proud, confident and strong. I tell this story sometimes our beginner girls
in the gym, if they seem a little bit unconfident or shy.
[...]
This is great Thanks Axel!! Really nice to hear Claudia's thoughts. She has exactly the right attitude - have you thought about introducing her to this blog? I would love to hear more from her....
DeleteThe first time i realized it was in high school. There was this girl who i used to bully in elementary school. I was 8 or 9 years old back then. And then she disapeared untill we met again in high school. I was amazed when i saw her, she grew bigger, had a good athletic look and more Amazing she was taller than me. i was only 5'5 while she is 5'7.
ReplyDeleteBut since i was the one who bullied i thought she migh still be afraind of me. so the first time i met her i said hi, and she replayed hi, with a smirk on her face. kind of evil smirk. after a few Days again, i put my hand on her shoulder when she walked in front of me. and to my surprize she grabed my hand, twisted my arm and pushed me against the wall. i was completely helpless, she could break my arm if she wanted. She finally released me, but i was shocked the whole day, and i was thinking of it during the night.
Since then Everything changed in my Life, she was the one who began to harass me, she made comments about how weak i am, and that she is tallen than me, whenever she sees me, se tells everyone to look how my legs legs are weaker and smaller than hers. I was deeply embarrased, and i din't have the courage to defy her. Untill one day she chalenged me to arm wrestle, i had no choice but to accept the chalenge, otherwise i will be called a coward. And for the first time in my Life i felt the real strength of this girl, it was too strong for me, and she defeated me. it was a real humilaiton since she had no difficulty doing it. That is the result of years of training at the gym and wrestling training. My humiliation became even deeper in school since then. She wanted to make sure that i submitted to her, so she was following me everywhere, she used to call me and give me certain tasks, as to make sure that i will never rebel against her. She seemed to enjoy her victory. And i was unfortunate to learn my lesson in the most hard and humiliating way
That's the kind of girls the world needs. You had to learn a lesson and she sat down and taught it to you. Now you might feel unfortunate, but in the depth of time you will feel grateful for becoming a more careful person thanks to her...
DeleteIndeed, I am very thankfull now for what she did. She completely changed my behaviour. even if she was humilating me, she had a good point. She wanted to reeducate me and bring me down to earth. And she succeded with no doubt,
DeleteShe also used fear to Control me. Sometimes when she orders me something she cracks her fingers and neck, and i get the message as if she was telling me: if you don't do as told this is how your bones will sound. Sometimes she even twists my arm and forces me to obey.
I will Always remember at the end of the last year of high school, she brought me to a room, she sat on the table and ordered me to kiss her heels. and i did without any resistance. it was her way to make sure that my kockiness and ego is completely broken Before i leave high school.
I started high school as a bully, impolite and kocky, and i got out of it as disciplined and humble person who respects everyone. And i am very thankfull for all what she did.
Good for you. I have taught similar lessons to a few bullies at the schools I attended, though in a different manner: sometimes I would start by countering their nasty comments, and I would always end up beating them up. Though I never did anything like heel-kissing orders. This depends on the given girl's personality, or maybe on how she reads the bully personalities... I guess that girl you mention succeeded because she read you right. And somehow I am sure it was not a thing of luck... Most psychologists are women. Why do you think this happens?
DeleteYes, that is true. She is intelligent and a personality reader. She knew my weaknesses that even i don't know about myself. Thats how she turned everything against me and kept me in her control.
DeleteI suppose most of women have this quality that's how most psychologist are women i guess.
I guess you would also be able to make those bullies kiss your shoes if you completely controlled them :)
I would be able to control them in such a manner if I cared to do so. I wanted to teach them their lesson in the manner I did though. I could also see a lot of weaknesses and insecurities behind the bullies' behaviour, it's just that I made a different choice on how to teach them their lesson. But I succeeded because the criteria I used for making that choice were correct. The same happened with "your" girl, who simply ended up with a different choice, as she had to do with a different bully. That's what I meant "she read you right".
DeleteOk, sorry for this long post which I have split in 2, but there were 2 defining moments for me once as a girl and the second as a young woman. So a while back I commented before about how inspired I was when as a child I saw for the first time the beating Bambi and Thumper gave James Bond, the movie representation of masculinity and male dominance (misogyny/chauvinism) over women got roughed up in turns by 2 physically superior females! What I didn’t say was at the time I was being bullied and humiliated in school by 3 of the ‘cool’ boys in class. Whereas before I never had the confidence to stand up for myself, after I saw Bambi I thought she was so cool I decided I wanted to emulate her and pretended to be her. She gave me the courage to realise these boys who had it in for me aren’t such a threat and if Bambi can beat Bond then I should be unafraid to attack and beat my tormenters (I think when I jumped them I even shouted something like “I’m Bambi and I’m gonna thump ya” lol, well I was only about 7!). So I did a very good job on them which I don’t mind admitting and it struck me how weak in actual fact these boys were (I remember having my main antagonist in a headlock and him crying his eyes out as I punched him in the face). I didn’t get bullied again after that, and like Hellfire Queen actually became the bullies bully at school. I did model myself on Bambi for a while, the most awesome woman in movie history, trying to dress like her, and perfecting her intimidation walk and fierce facial expressions. I persuaded my parents to let me take up gymnastics and this was good - by the age of 12/13 I was stronger than all the boys in school even the year tens. I would regularly armwrestle and beat the boys for their dinner money lol. I was the fastest at the hurdles and best at throwing the javelin in athletics. But after the age of 14 I kind of lost interest in gymnastics and being sporting and got more into goth/punk fashion and partying and also I guess a being bit of a geek. I was like this right through to university and more or less forgot/didn’t think about femsupremacy or physical empowerment.
ReplyDeleteJust After I finished university at the age of 21 I started dating this guy, bit older than me at 26, who was an aba boxing champ he started taking me to both a weights gym and his boxing gym. And I loved it, training with him and smashing it on the weights and on the punch bag. The years of gymnastics and sports as a girl must of left a latent fitness because I made gains very quickly, so much so that after only a few months of weightlifting I was matching most of his best lifts easy. I loved it and became very competitive chiding him just for fun that I could beat him in the weight room. I didn’t realise he didn’t like it and that I had gone from a cute girly ‘trying’ to lift and box to a threat to his male ego. Matters came to a head when one night at the boxing club we ended up playful sparring (I was still very new to boxing, he was an expert) and he was being real cocky and flash sticking his head out to bait me to punch before bobbing it out the way, showing off, we were only a minute or so into the spar when I threw my right hand just like I would throw the javelin before, just whipped my arm out, it didn’t feel that hard but suddenly he wasn’t standing in front of me – I had connected with his chin and he was on the canvas dazed! I didn’t even mean it lol everyone was laughing that the champ got ko’d by his girlfriend, he was ok tho, he recovered quick and didn’t seem too upset until we got home after the session. I admit I did jokingly mock him that I knocked him out, but he totally over reacted and flipped at me, called me a bitch told me he were going to kill me then actually physically attacked me – domestic violence assault! I still remember so vividly grabbing him in self-defence as he came at me and slamming him as hard as I could against the wall, the resulting thud and groan from him, then kind of pile driving him face first into the floor and as I stood victorious over him my rage changed from being upset that the man I loved had tried to physically harm me to total elation, my body literally tingled all over. He was supposed to be the hardest guy in our town and me at just 21 had beat him in the gym, in the boxing ring and now in a street fight and as I looked down on him as he lay helpless on the floor, well the rush of power I felt was awesome I even started screaming a Xena like war cry lol. The urge to smash his face in was almost overwhelming but the look of fear on face as he cowered, waiting for his beating was better than if I did actually carry through and bust him up, so instead I gave him a whole load of verbal humiliation while he sobbed and begged then walked out his flat and that was that. I felt so strong, so invincible I felt like this is how women should be! Like beating the bullies as a girl - a real defining moment in my life as a woman
ReplyDeleteBecause the boxing was his thing I felt I couldn’t go back to his club so I took up judo instead and found that I was very good at it! I tapped out my first black belt man in randori when I was still a green belt. When I got to the stage where I took my own black belt grading, part of the exam involved fighting all the black belt men. Getting a black belt is supposed to be a very tough challenge; I did not find it too difficult. Today I still lift and am training bjj (currently blue belt) and muay thai/mma and loving it. I truly believe I owe a lot of my inspiration and motivation to Bambi from Diamonds are Forever (I still love watching that scene today) as well as, ironically, my douche ex who inspired me to get back in the gym and take up martial arts and whose failed attempt to beat me up marked, I feel, both my coming of age and my conviction in female superiority! I’m with a great guy now who accepts my rule and his role in a female led relationship but I think this is his favourite song lol https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SDOg-juiEcI
Good. Your example on dealing with douchebags is very practical. I'm sure any well-trained woman that has to put up with an "alpha-male" will find it useful. Thanks for sharing:)
DeletePS: The song is fun xD
Brilliant read, thanks so much for sharing. Great inspiration!!! How old was your partner when you showed him his place? Does your current man ever need reminding? Thanks:)
DeleteThis comment has been removed by the author.
DeleteHe was still in his prime, not long 27, I was just short of 22 xD. My current doesn’t need reminding, but often is ;)
DeleteI understand you. Even if a guy doesn't seem to need reminding, it's good to hand him one every now and then. In your place I'd most likely do the same.
DeleteLove it you two!!! I wish there was a "Like" button on this blog...
DeleteI agree with Xaan on this one. Very good job by Anonymous on that douche guy, and correct thought on reminding your current man who's the real boss. Our Queen has also done convincing stuff against douchebags, just as I have done too, at various cases.
DeleteI remember, back when I was just 9 years old, one day I was at school and three boys stood in front of me, somehow trying to convince me about their strength. I was not sure what to do, so I forehand-slapped the guy on the right and backhand-slapped the guy on the left, making all three of them collide together. It all happened too fast for them. After this, I sat down and thought what all this could probably mean. And I think I found it.
ReplyDeleteThey needed it, they suffered it. Well done:)
DeleteThis morning, a schoolgirl taught the lesson to a middle-aged guy over here and I was lucky enough to see the incident. A car was blocking the way of another car, so the (male) driver of the blocked car stepped out to ask the other driver to open the way. The blocking driver though was a douchebag and started to beat the other guy, until that girl stepped out of the blocked car and took the douchebag on. The douchebag thought the girl would be an easy prey, but she forced him into his car and most probably ordered him to open the way. He had no choice...
ReplyDeletethat's a good lesson for the douche. hope he won't be disrespectfull next time
DeleteIt also is a good lesson on road behaviour. It's not right to block the others' way. The best things to do while driving are to obey the regulations, know how to properly operate the car AND avoid getting in the way of other cars. Obeying the regulations keeps you safe, knowing how to properly operate the car can help you have fun safely and staying out of the others' way will also keep you safe and the other drivers calm.
DeleteHi All,
ReplyDeleteI posted a bit already but realize now that this is the correct place to share what happened to me. I was 13-14 years old and still ignorant about the real power women have. At the time I lived close to a nearby lake where the entire village went to take a swim. It was already late that afternoon and when I arrived, most people were already gone or were packing their belongings. These three women, I guess they were in their early 30s, were also busy packing their belongings when a couple of guys started to harass them. I was rooted to the spot, didn't know what to do. I wanted to help these women but what can a 13 year old boy do against a couple of guys. Just when I decided to go for help, I saw that these women absolutely didn't need help.
They really knew how to defend themselves and after only a few minutes these guys were running for their lives.
It had a huge impact on me, I had witnessed now with my own eyes that women are capable of beating men up with ease. It unnerved me for months, thought about it a lot. Experienced so many mixed emotions. AFter a while I realized that a part of me wanted these women to do it again. Wanted to see these women beat these men up again. I can tell you that these women were in my mind a lot and as time progressed, they seemed like goddesses to me. Superior to all men and I realized I liked it that way.
It was for me a life changing experience which rocked my world and totally changed the way how I thought about women.
Regards,
Thanks for sharing, I think we can all relate to this...:)
DeleteI discovered when I was at school, I went to an independent, private all boys day school, round the corner was another private school, an all-girls prep school (up to year 8) Our school was the bigger school and we often let the girls use our sports facilities this included their acrobatic gymnastics team using our hall gymnasium for their practice, when I was in year 11 our years football squad of which I was in the team would have PE sessions just after the year 8 gymnast girls would use the hall for their practice. So one day we arrive for PE to be told that we have been challenged to a tug of war against the 12 year old girl gymnasts. Now there were 15 of us on the squad, 16 year old lads, the alpha males of our year, they were just 6 girls 4 years younger, we thought it would be a breeze, how wrong we were, the challenge was made because our pe teacher had apparently called girls feeble individuals to their gym mistress who took offence to this and bet him that her girls could beat his best team in a strength challenge. She must have prepped the girls before because they were very eager and ready to take up the tug rope and I remember well the mistress telling the girls to just hold to begin with without budging and on her command to pull aggressively, and that’s exactly what they did on the whistle we started tugging with all our might but could not budge them, they just braced and held us, then I remember clearly their mistress ordering “ready girls now give them what for” and that was it they gave a sharp tug that pretty much took us all of our feet and toppled us like dominoes!! The show boating that the girls than did as we looked up at them was just total humiliation as they laughed at us, whooped and high fived each other, whilst the look on our teachers face – he was bright red and furious, needless to say he beasted us in our lesson calling us wimps and an embarrassment. But the aftermath was the real hell because it started a period of us being pushed around and bullied by 12 year girls and really exposed me to the tyranny of girl power.
ReplyDeleteAfter school some of the year 8 girls including the gymnasts would use the same bus shelter as some of us to get home. Before the tug of war it was our domain, we were the kings of the stop the girls were well behaved and would wait timidly at the side while we lads larked about, smoked our cigarettes etc. At the end of the day after the tug of war the girls had already ‘taken’ best spot inside the shelter. Normally they would shift when we arrived so we had the seats and shelter as was the established pecking order except now they didn’t. There was a kind of Mexican standoff while we stood there waiting for them to move, a gang of boys facing off against a few girls. One of us tried telling them to move and that’s when it all kicked off the gymnasts stood up watched on by their peers and after a lot of pushing and shoving they completely girl handled us, trashed us basically and physically ejected us into the gutter. One of my friends tried throwing a few shots but got completely outgunned by the female terror and was left nursing a fat lip and bloody nose for his efforts. For my part I was completely overwhelmed by my assailant I still remember it and her name, zoe, she was short but thickly built and oh so powerful she pushed me all over the place until I fell over then dragged me out by the scruff of my neck and put me in the gutter. I ended up lying on my back with her squatting over me in a wide legs bent stance her right hand holding my tie pinning me by the chest to the ground with overwhelming strength her left arm cocked and raised back to strike if she wanted. I was desperately fighting back the tears humiliated and terrified. Her face is etched in my memory, long brown hair and wide brown eyes chubby cheeks and a broad white toothed smile as she threatened me ‘if you move from this spot before your bus arrives, I will destroy you’ it ended with 3 of us dumped in the gutter by zoes hands alone waiting and a good few others put there by the other girls, tough guy boys almost crying forced to sit in a gutter by a few girls not daring to move before our bus came. While I waited I would occasionally meet eye contact with zoe and she would puff her chest out, put her hands on her hips and shoot me a snarl that immediately made me look down petrified off what she could pr might do. We weren’t just beaten we were annihilated! After that the bullying really started (zoe was the worst) and for the rest of the term we were pushed about threatened with beatings unless we gave them our smokes all by private school girls who were supposed to be learning deportment. The girls ruled! I was so glad to finish that term and the school year ended! We couldn’t complain to the teachers that 12 year old girls were physically intimidating bullying us it was very distressing and not fun. The thing that really intimidates me is the obvious joy girls experience when they give men beatings, they always smile when they do it, to me it seems they do it as an expression of heir femininity, do the amazons on here agree? It has left me with both abject fear and respect of empowered females, so much so that I ditched the football, hit the gym and took up bodybuilding and I know its controversial and sneered upon but admit to taking steroids (I know its looked down on but legal for personal use and I don’t compete in any sports, use not abuse) not because of wanting to be stronger than other men but because I didn’t want to be weaker than any woman. Unfortunately for me as well as seeing 150lb women outtrain, outbench and outlift men in the gym I train at (even the juicers) I also discovered the hard way that a well-trained woman is superior to any man at the hands of my crossfit ex girlfriend, I comment on the on the receiving end of girl power thread about domestic abuse.

ReplyDeleteOnce again, it all started from male aggression.
DeleteStriker
It really wasn't male aggression we were stitched up, we never asked for the tug of war in the first place and got totally humiliated by girls we really badly underestimated them but knowing what I know now, they had been practicing in the schools program since the age of 5 in a sport specifically designed to build strength and power and were the top in their school we were blinded to these facts because of our ignorance of female ability
DeleteThe bus stop beat down was uncalled for - the seniors should always get the prime spot regardless of gender that's the norm pecking order of things -this was unreserved female aggression they started something they knew we couldn't back down from because of our numbers and what had happened before. They knew they could beat us and quite emphatically they did just that! But they didn't leave it at that and continued to torment us and if you like stamp us into the ground! Paul
I guess it could look like that, but we didn't ask for the tug of war or subsequent beatings, the girls stitched us up to a certain degree because we totally underestimated the kind of training they had been doing and the power they had.
DeleteThe pecking order at the stop should always favour the seniors no matter what gender but the girls deliberately antagonised it because they knew they could take us. They started it, beat us emphatically and then made us suffer for a long time after- total bullies! Paul
Cool story, Paul. From now on, you can say "I knew a teacher who called girls feeble individuals, but then his alpha male team got emasculated by them".

That's one way of looking at it mistress raffaela, I don't know where zoe is now or what she is doing but I can well imagine her saying something just like that! Regards and respect, paul
DeleteHad your teacher been even just a little bit wiser, the tug of war and subsequent beatings would never happen.
DeleteStriker
bullies? sounds like they tired of your chauvinist sh*t and taught you and themselves properly about grrl power. thats a beat down that doesn't surprise me and makes me proud to be female, making you wait in the gutter is a nice touch xD shame about their smoking but hopefully they have gone on to be mighty warrior women still! xD xx>>xy Ace
DeleteHi Paul. Just read this. I have posted on another thread about my experience with an amazon cross-fitter ex who loved to humiliate men. She would beat me up a lot. mostly it would usually start off as a play fighting but would often end up serious, basically she would use any excuse to prove her dominance over me. She would punch and kick, but her favourite things were choking and suffocation. I would often end up badly hurt and distressed but she just didn't care. Like you mention the thing that really got to me and still does when I think about it was how much she enjoyed it. The joy she got out of beating and humiliating me was immense and I think she became addicted to it, there was definitely a sexual element to it. Why do they have to be so cocky, so nasty? We are in for a terrible time if this amazon movement gathers pace....
DeletePatriarchists are indeed in for a terrible time, but that is your fault, guys, not ours. Constantina
DeleteI'm sorry but I have to say you and your teacher should have shown more respect from the start, they may have been 12, but acrobatic gymnasts are trained for strength and power. Basically sexist attitude clouded your judgement and determined your punishment. sorry i'm with the girls on this one, if you had been gentlemen at the bus stop instead of bullying them of the seats they would never off given you the beating you deserved good on them. We guys need to learn to be polite to the female because the amazon movement is gathering pace and if we don't accept our place the beatings will continue. Dan the man
DeleteThing is dan, if they were gymnast boys 4 years younger, 100 times out of 100 we would have beat them, we had some big lads in our team and some of us had actually done gymnastics previously anyway, and we were basically the best athletes in our year, so now make them just 6 girls against 15 and it’s natural to have thought we’d win 101 times out of 100, but it was easy work for the girls if you think about it each girl was stronger than just about 3 of us put together! How could we have expected that, they were only girls! I’m sure they had been mentored and inspired by their teacher to outmuscle us. And at the bus stop it really wasn’t a gender thing why we were acting like kings. Up to that point we were the top dogs entitled to respect and being the bosses! The spice girls were big at the time with their girl power rhetoric and these were inspired spice girl fans with attitude! It was them who made it a gender thing. They wanted to fight us because we were the toughest boys around, and they bullied us because of our gender they wanted to be boy bullies and destroy our machismo. They must have been brainwashed into being female supremacists I’m sure both by their teacher and the spice girls! I think all my teacher did wrong was to brag about how weak girls are compared to boys because that’s what he thought, and then a girls gymnast teacher said she could show him just how strong girls are in reality. They had a point to prove which they did emphatically but it was also like a game to them! We became toys for them to play with. Like anonymous says girls seem too really to enjoy beating and humiliating men the more macho the better without a care to how much distress and hurt they put on us. They have a really soft feminine way of expressing overwhelming physical power yet totally ruthless with their unsuspected strength and fighting ability. With my ex I thought I was vastly strong and unbeatable and when she attacked me, like with the school girls, I put everything I had into the fight, yet in both cases they took everything I threw at them and made light work of me, chucking me about like a pillow all the while taunting in softly spoken voices I remember my ex whispered quietly after dislocating my jaw “Looks like all of that time at the gym hasn’t actually resulted in much strength development, has it? Pity that the way you look doesn’t match the way you are” And I remember on both times the look in their eyes as victorious female and beaten male gaze at each other both understanding that she can punish and destroy you until there’s not an inch left, kill you even, so so easily, the way they smiled and breathed so calmly and deeply expanding their chests in smug satisfaction and gloating. It does haunt me, I was raised in a patriarchy and to experience first-hand female physical supremacy turns your world topside. My futile struggles and failed attempts to subdue girls and re-establish male dominance were to no avail and the female walks away triumphantly as the winner. I accept it now and even support it because as Constantina says patriarchy is extremely misguided and at fault. Paul
DeleteQuite an illuminating educational example for modern relationships between the sexes!
ReplyDeleteHave any of the Females here ever contemplated after securing such factual paradigms of Female supremacy even in the physical realm of desiring to insist upon the weaker male sex ultimately accepting and assuming any forms of the 'feminization' for millennia forced upon Women: be it physical, psychological, personality, behavioral and/or even dress?
It would seem one very likely next natural step in restructuring proper future sexual roles.
We obviously do have our ideas on these matters. Sure, men still want to force their ways (they 've been raised to do so...), but we definitely have the option of not listening - and we 'd better make full use of it and do stuff as we see fit. Constantina
