My mother has told me many things…

Ok Penman Frey. I’m more convinced you are cool.

You have an age beyond your young years and a deep insight into things.

Don’t be afraid of being an introvert.
Look up the Sigma male. It probably describes many if not most of us here.

I’m certainly introverted but know when not to be. My job requires me to adapt.

My query about Aspergers was because you appear to have traits – if not full Aspergers.
But I have it so it seemed to pop out at me.

I prefer to give people the benefit of the doubt. And like you I was new here not so long ago. I look back and realise I got off lightly compared to the grilling and suspicion I have seen others go through.

So welcome to MGTOW young brother.

When I got a moment I’ll post my handwriting on your other thread. You can tell my what your anysis is.
I will admit that I already know but I will be curious to see what you think.

The object of life is not to be on the side of the majority, but to escape, finding oneself in the ranks of the insane. Marcus Aurelius

Just a bit of information for you from someone who has fought against all styles, Taekwondo is more on the “art” side of things when it comes to martial arts and doesnt really have much force in their kicks. If you wish to do something that has a lot of power in kicking you’d be best to look Muay Thai or traditional karate/kickboxing. I hope you find something you enjoy either way.

Cheers

Get yourself a firearm, Frey. Learn how to use it effectively and keep plenty of ammo.

That is very useful information. Thank you for your advice. I’m definitely going to do a lot more research before actually signing up.

I think I was initially attracted to Taekwondo mainly for the the benefits it offers in terms of flexibility. I found that combined with the intensive choreographic like kicks to be a very unique approach to martial arts.

Welcome.

Look not to the shames of the past, but to the glory of the future.

Well it’s definitely choreography like, but not that effective as strikes. There’s nothing wrong with doing it, just be aware there’s not much power in it so not that effective on the street or against more powerful marriage art systems. Have fun whatever you do. 🙂

I think I understand, and whatever it comes down to though, I think it will be a very satisfying experience regardless. Thank you again for your insight, I am very grateful.

Crap, didnt notice I already responded lol, was re-reading and thought of more to add.

For martial arts stuff I was always more drawn to grappling. Its surprisingly good at developing your flexibility.

Main thing I thought of was, if you like calligraphy have you ever thought of trying pin-striping? If youre not familiar with it its not really drawing so much as making designs using sweeping and straight lines using paint and special brushes. The most common place you see the designs is on old hot rods and motorcycles, it was also used alot on old hand painted signs for business, like following the outer edge of a letter with black or white to give it a border. If you become proficient at it you could go to old hot rod and motorcycle shows and do on the spot pin-striping for money, or do it on signs for local businesses who want a vintage look.

Grappling huh? So many choices…
And I was looking at Krav Maga yesterday as well.

Also I just checked out pinstriping, it looks very interesting, thanks for the info!
