for some reason this thread reminds me of this and yeah even a small tap anywhere near the privates is definitely no fun to anyone.
I put in bold the most important part.tkioz said:Okay so groin attacks in fiction are funny, but girls seriously in real life if the dude isn't attacking you you don't get to hit a guy there, it's just not cricket.
This is not right, there is no reason besides assault for anyone to hit a man in the groin. This reminds me of my friend's stories about how girls in his high school would kick guys in the groin for no reason except they thought it was funny, they weren't being attacked, harassed, anything. That's not okay, that is potentially physically disabling a part of a person's body for the rest of their life for their own amusement. In cases such as that and the case you mention "punching a dude there as acceptable for being a jerk" are clear cut cases of assault in which the man can defend himself.tkioz said:Okay so groin attacks in fiction are funny, but girls seriously in real life if the dude isn't attacking you you don't get to hit a guy there, it's just not cricket.
The reason this came about is my nieces and my sister in law came to town for a visit this week and crashed at my place, my nice little cute nieces who have somehow been taught that striking a man in the place of pain is funny.
Any guy who has ever been struck there can tell you even a tap is painful, a full on blow shuts down your brain for a good 5-10 seconds while you working out wtf is going on and then the pain hits. In serious cases you start to taste blood afterwards.
I once sat in on a self defence class that my sisters were taking, the women teaching the class went over different means of disabling an attacker, usually with the common warning that I know well about not using this on people useless it's for real... notable exception? the strikes to the testicles. It's like they thinking punch a dude there is acceptable for being a jerk.
Do women seriously not know how much this freaking hurts?
You obviously skipped over "usually with the common warning that I know well about not using this on people useless it's for real... notable exception? the strikes to the testicles."Arachon said:You do realize that self defense classes are not really meant for women to learn how to deal with guys being jerks... It's more like dealing with guys who are trying to rape them.
Its True my friend got hit in the nuts with a Cricket Ball and i swear his voice afterwards sounded like his balls parachuted out of his ears...alxhrmn said:On the contrary - groin attacks are fucking hilarious when they're not happening to me.
wait...WHAT!!!?!Leonhardt93 said:A guy from my highschool once though that smacking people with a wet towel, in the locker room, was fun. That's when three blokes from my year decides to grab a hold of him an give him the hardest, most horrific smack with a twisted, evil and dripping wet towel. Right on his babies..
His sack split open and the contents fell out!!
Everytime i think of this story, my balls cringe.
