I kind of want to see what happens afterwards. She was slipping and sliding way before she got sweeped.
Tough guys all around it seems.
What a ****head.
Yeah, when she was all like "Yeah, I AM a b1tch!" and throws the beer in his face, well if it was me I would have just fantasized about knocking her feet out from under her, 'cause I wouldn't hit a woman for such a ridiculous thing. But still, it would have taken a bit of self control not to follow through with it. She thought she was hot sh1t and that she could do whatever she wanted.... she found out differently...
1. you never touch a woman no matter what she does
2. if you don't come on like an a-hole and push even when the woman obviously has no interest, she probably won;t throw beer in your face
even if she does, see 1. you never touch a woman no matter what she does
I agree it was a ***** thing to do, but you gotta keep in mind there are certain cultures where they just don't take that kind of slack from a woman...especially not an American one. That's something too many of us are ignorant of when traveling abroad. I say she's a bimbo for not knowing better.
He broke the Connery Rule.
I'm sure it is a situational thing but usually girls do not go around throwing beer in people's faces. You have those rare cases where provocation is not necessary but I would have just had one of my female friends fight her. :D
Seriously though, it probably didn't have to go that far.
the whole 'never hit a woman no matter what she does' is VERY chauvanistic in essence. by saying that, men are continuing to say that women are too stupid to realize the consequences of their actions and we should treat them as less than equals.
when a woman decides to physically attack a man she is counting on whatever chivalry he has to allow her to unfairly attack him. that's as bad a case of bullying as any other.
not saying that is the case here. just a general response to the general statements made.
I would say that he actually fulfilled it! somewhere, Sir Sean is smiling...
that said, it was flat out wrong to do that: if she had tried / succeeded to hit him over the head w/a beer bottle, fine; take gender out of it, it's got nothing to do w/it - he is guilty of aggravated assault;
...because, he did break the rule.
It was wrong. At most, the retaliation should have been another cup of beer in her face...response equal to the threat. He overstepped the line.
Also, I believe that the bigger, stronger and better you are, the more you are obligated to moderate your response. If you CAN completely decimate someone, you should not generally need to do so.
I like the 'fast approach with sudden stillness in thier face' response to mild physical threats: get in there face faster than they believed possible and then don't move while giving them that 'look'.
Most men CAN subdue a woman w/o really coming to blows with them. A simple bear hug and lift them off their feet till they stop screaming at you works...or did the several times I had to use it as a bouncer.
he shoulda just given her a wedgie.
payback is so much more gratifying when it involves humiliation.
no, it's saying that as a general rule (Monji is making a joke because we have a female fighter who has beaten up a lot of guys in the gym, but that is an EXCEPTION) but as a general rule women are not as big and strong as a man
Also, "equality" and all that crap aside, women are NOT men... there are differences
we need the evil sanjuro to post pics of manly women bodybuilders, like bev francis in her prime... y'know, the ones with the huge jaws..
agreed...but, when they cross a line that no should really cross then they are no more or less than equal...that does not mean that you should respond to the point where Machida does...but saying 'never touch a woman no matter what she does' is silly. when a woman crosses the line to the physical she is not asking for it any less than a man who crosses that line.
besides, there are plenty of women out there who have killed or seriously hurt other people...I don't think you can say 'never touch a woman no matter what she does' applies in those instances.
If a six year old kid ran up to you and punched you in the thigh, would you punch them back? I mean "the kid had it coming, he crossed the line"?
I had a former GF come at me with a knife once. I grabbed her wrist and took the knife away. Did I beat her up afterwards? NO.
I left the apartment and the chick after the knife thing , no duh
So, are you concerned with the attack of the 50 foot woman maybe?
What the dude should have done is spoken to her calmly, and then shouted out loudly "I would never give you 100 dollars to sleep with you".
Then he could walk away in disgust while all her friends think she tried to ho herself to another tourist. lol
anyway, he shouldn't of dumped her, but she was being a shmuck.
no, I hear you - I was just goofin' is all;
problem is, some people are so stupid, especially if they never have had their asses handed to them physically, that if you do that, they interpret it as "oh, he got in my face but couldn't do anything else"
I certainly agree it's a matter of degree, etc.; and again, I don't think it should be gender specific - it should be based purely on physical attributes; so a beer bottle attack may have not warranted a sweep, but hey, if she had pulled her knife out, which you never know, she may have been getting ready to do that...:p
I simply would have choked her out, laid her on her back and teabagged her while a friend took some pics and then posted it on the web.
Its how I roll.
and to this day, all who know and luv Dave regard her as, "She Who Did What The Rest of Us Only Dream Of Doing";
BTW, she didn't happen to be a 1/2 Irish, 1/2 Japanese gal who lived on King Street in the W. Village around summer of '89 by any chance? no reason, just asking...
a beer bottle attack would warrant a sweep in my book...i thought all i saw was a glass of beer thrown in his face???
however, any retaliation after an attack is over is simply another attack...you can do many things to prevent a real attack but once the threat is over you have a duty to retreat...he obviously did not retreat
What are you saving up to be. jewish?
:D
Quick story:
years ago, in one of the Kodokan closed door sessions ( BB only) one particular asswipe that was always a tad mouthy, got choked out, his pants were pulled of and on his ass was written in permanent marker, " Property of the Kodokan".
Some women are crazier and feistier than others. I had a female friend years ago who got into a fight (a REAL fight) with her boyfriend. When I and another friend saw what her face looked like (pretty messed up) from being hit, we were getting ready to hunt the guy down & have our own... "conversation"... with him. She asked us not to and admitted that he was just defending himself. We said "bullsh1t, how much need could he have to do THIS to a petite little barbie-doll looking woman?"
Then we saw what HE looked like. There really would have been no point in beating the guy any further than what he'd already received. She had really done a number on him.
And as a former law enforcement officer, I can tell you that men sometimes do get stabbed by women, and sometimes it's fatal. Of course it all depends on the situation. The one in the vid was truly an unwarranted level of response. The woman WAS being a b1tch (and maybe the guy had brought that on himself, who knows), but yeah, there were many more appropriate responses to "assault with a deadly beverage"...
