You aren't a talented martial artist and your being a lesbian and probably having a black belt from some POS McDojo doesn't change the fact that you're wrong. <BR/>Apparently you don't get how BJJ works - it's laid back, a black belt can take over a decade to obtain...but it's still laid back, meaning: being a beautiful woman in a picture and holding your black belt doesn't belittle it.<BR/><BR/>Get over yourself.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05155375007822205398noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2058732798351980624.post-37916415008481533062008-01-27T20:07:00.000-05:002008-01-27T20:07:00.000-05:00It is just a piece of material.

You’re probably the same individuals who talk crap about sex symbols on Television or those who come in the office wearing high heals or low cut tops. Yes she’s sexy, yes she’s in martial arts but most of all, YES she’s great for the sport. She’s become a poster-girl for Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu & not just another pretty face. Remember Anna Kournikova? She can’t play tennis for crap but she can sure sell a canon. I’m willing to bet you’ve talked sh** about her too. Do you not like the way she holds a tennis racket? Does this to represent a phallic symbol? Get over it… Whey must people talk smack about others just to feel better about themselves. Guess what? Regardless of what you do or say, your husband or boyfriend is going to see these women & going to think their attractive anyway. If they say otherwise, they’re lying because they know what’s best for them. <BR/><BR/>Why should she not flaunt the black-belt? Have any of you taken BJJ? Do you realize how long it takes to achieve this status? This isn’t “Americanized” Tae-kwon do or Karate. You can’t just shell out money to be part of the “Black-belt club” & achieve your belt after 2 years regardless as to whether you deserve it or not. Quit your whining, watch Doctor Phil & the world will be a better place. Why worry about something you have no control over. Why worry about what someone else does who has nothing to do with you or your family. Better yet, Grow up… You aren't in High School anymore...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2058732798351980624.post-89171900746963154652007-11-22T12:44:00.000-05:002007-11-22T12:44:00.000-05:00Okay Boardie, I misunderstood you.
