Trialbyfire Posted August 14, 2009 Posted August 14, 2009 You would expect your fiance to fight 4 guys at once because one of them decided to use you to pick a fight with him? I expect him to find a way to fix the problem. I can also be fiercely protective. Even if my man doesn't need me to watch his back, I'll do it unless he specifically states for me not to. I don't expect any less from him.

I would rather my guy and I be physically able to leave the situation. My ass cheek is not a holy relic. I would be upset with my SO if he fell for such an obvious attempt to draw him into a beat down. What might happen to me once they're done with him?

clv0116 Posted August 14, 2009 Posted August 14, 2009 As a guy, my view on violent conflicts is pretty much in line with what is taught in law enforcement/military. Basically, any conflict has a pretty predictable trajectory.... Hence the stupidity of fighting for the sake of it, and unfortunately too many movies promote this unrealistic spectacle. This is why I legally carry at least 1 sidearm all the time, and why I take every precaution I can, including "acting like a coward" if I have to, to keep myself and those around me safe and to make the gun(s) stay hidden. The most dangerous thing an armed person can do is escalate a situation simply because they are equipped to do so.
Trialbyfire Posted August 14, 2009 Posted August 14, 2009 Fair enough TBF; I hope it never comes down to it. As of yet, the 4 on 1 situation, hasn't happened. For that matter, I haven't experienced men grabbing or touching areas of my body they shouldn't, just to jack with the SO I was with, at the time. What I have experienced in the past, is being stopped at clubs by men putting themselves in my way or having my arm grabbed. My ex-H used to come up behind me, put one or both arms around me and through look and physical presence, back the guys down. Straight up, this is the kind of man I'm drawn to, the dominant male. I won't try to justify or change what I'm attracted to. It is what it is. Since we don't bother going out at night to dance clubs, except private business clubs, mostly go for dinner, movies, pubs, lounges, out with and at friends, in decent parts of town, it's kind of moot. I'm not too concerned during the day.
sumdude Posted August 14, 2009 Posted August 14, 2009 I would rather my guy and I be physically able to leave the situation. My ass cheek is not a holy relic. I would be upset with my SO if he fell for such an obvious attempt to draw him into a beat down. What might happen to me once they're done with him? This is a healthy attitude. Where I would definitely open the can of whup a$$ as a last resort I avoid it at almost all costs. You never know what that guy trying to cop a cheap feel or start a confrontation has in his pocket, under his jacket or how many buddies/accomplices are with him.
collegekid491 Posted August 14, 2009 Posted August 14, 2009 I've seen two on one guy fights' date=' and the one guy almost put both of them out of comission![/quote'] We aren't talking about movies or fights where the guy vastly out sizes both of the other two. People don't just stand there and exchange punches, most of them they will either bum rush you or sucker punch you, especially when it comes to scum at the bar. Even if they out number you, they won't fight fair. Heck, even if you 'win' and humilate them, they are gonna be pissed, they will just get more and wait for you. Don't believe me? Ask my bro why he was slurping supper through a straw for months. Same goes for fighting systems, I could walk in and flaunt my black belt, but these aren't sophisticated fighters. A man who uses the power of suggestion with a quick tongue is so much more effective, it's not about making the other person pay physically, its about humiliation.

I won't try to justify or change what I'm attracted to. It is what it is. Eye contact, physical presence and light duty intimidation are one thing and in most cases all it takes. Helps to be built like a linebacker too I've bypassed many a touchy situation with that, thinking ahead and just talking..

IMO, many of these situations don't need to happen by avoiding hotspots or seedy places, where there are a lot of randy, raunchy bantam roosters, under the influence of whatever substance they're currently strung out on, whether it's alcohol, drugs or both.
Citizen Drawn Posted August 14, 2009 Posted August 14, 2009 Yes, I agree. I have more confidence in a person who cares less about pride than the preservation of themselves and their loved ones. Agreed, having more pride than common sense means you're not streetwise.

Helps to be built like a linebacker too I've bypassed many a touchy situation with that, thinking ahead and just talking.. Last time I went into a club the girl at the door asked "Are you working?". I didn't understand the question and some confusion ensued until we sorted out that she had assumed I was a bouncer coming on duty and that no, I was in fact not working.
EddieN Posted August 14, 2009 Posted August 14, 2009 I'm surprised by all the women who seem to be offended, with the attitude, "I can defend myself, thank you." Um, really? Like, I'm sure many women can defend or evade to some extent, but do many of you think you can really take down a guy with even a little bit of height or muscle, let alone a lot? I've been in several fights, but I've never struck first, nor do I ever plan to. I've gotten in guy's faces before and held them up by their shirts, but I've never thrown the first punch. If I had a girlfriend, you'd bet your ass I wouldn't put up with guys disrespecting her (by disrespecting her, I mean grabbing her, making very raunchy sexual comments while knowing I was with her. Many boyfriends will react if they see their girl just talking to another guy, which is so insecure). There are a lot of douchebags out there who need to prove their masculinity by putting down other guys. Any girl I like shouldn't have to put up with them, nor should I. There are times when you should walk away, but there are also times when you need to stand up against the same punks who won't leave you alone. I have a side-question for women - if your guy got into a defensive fight but evidently lost, whether it was him against one guy or several, how would that affect your view of him?

GorillaTheater Posted August 14, 2009 Posted August 14, 2009 I'm sorry Trial by fire but you are delusional feminist psychopath. Your thoughts and expectations are nothing short of psychopathic. Your man is a fool for putting up with it. This is some seriously cowardly bullsh*t. Your first post launches on Alphamale, and your second goes off on TBF. Seems to me you're probably at least a semi-regular hiding behind a nom de guerre. Grow some nads. Thanks.

Like I said earlier (echoing Carhill): situational awareness, threat analysis, and preemptive avoidance...
Jimmy's_Brother Posted August 14, 2009 Posted August 14, 2009 ive actually been on this site for a long time, just now finally registered an account. and im trying to talk some sense into delusional people. you blame me? Again, this seems like Thomas. Every freaking new poster with a 'tude and an agenda to "help" is going to make me think it's him.
GorillaTheater Posted August 14, 2009 Posted August 14, 2009 Sure why not I'm also someone named ryan and someone named alone. add to the list more, im here to stay and the truth a keepa comin! Are you drunk? Okay, fine, stick around. But at least be funny.
GorillaTheater Posted August 14, 2009 Posted August 14, 2009 Bwahha rest assured, humor is my middle name, but I'm often not funny. But you CAN at least count on me to tell the idiots how it is. I aim for the idiots, and I never miss. I also aim for the feminists even tho I MAY be a girl. (WONT CONFIRM OR DENY!) TBF, time for therapy. Yeah thats right. The T in your name should stand for Therapy!!!!! (please) The B should stand for boneheaded And the F should stand for fruitcake! Be funnier.
Chubbi Posted August 14, 2009 Posted August 14, 2009 In truth, I'll be fighting with my guy lol. He fights-I'm in. That means he better not fight. I'm not good at all.
wuggle Posted August 14, 2009 Posted August 14, 2009 Yeah man, TOTALLY! If a group of huge, 200 lb guys with bulging muscles brush against her ass, her man should TOTALLY kill himself to protect her average looking ass. RIGHTTTTTTTTT. It is evident from this thread (and others eg the two black eyes comment) that you are not here to discuss things sensibly but just want a fight.This site is for people to discuss interesting topics, get different views from around the world, and hopefully above all for people of experience to help others who may be struggling. All views and opinions are welcome, but childish, unintelligent prattling and personal attacks are not. If you cannot be grown up and stick to discussing the issues without just attacking people please go away. There has been too much of this rubbish on this site recently.
clv0116 Posted August 14, 2009 Posted August 14, 2009 All views and opinions are welcome, but childish, unintelligent prattling and personal attacks are not. Telling someone who doesn't know what they are 'prattling' on about they are ignorant of the facts of the matter (a factual statement if ever there was one) can gain one the ire of a moderator, however. This place is only safe for the sunflowers and unicorns crowd. Reality not welcome.
carhill Posted August 14, 2009 Posted August 14, 2009 I thought we already had a full moon this month
Lizzie60 Posted August 14, 2009 Posted August 14, 2009 In truth, I'll be fighting with my guy lol. He fights-I'm in. That means he better not fight. I'm not good at all. ............... cute..
