She’s a trained martial arts assassin and swordsman who uses a weapon and mostly fights other women. She’s not throwing 400lb guys all over the place in hand to hand combat like she’s hulk hogan.

I'm curious as to what movies you've seen this in.

How many do I have to list because I have a feeling the goal post will move if I just simply answer the question.

The replies to your stupid statement went just as I expected but probably not how you did. Enjoy your downvotes

You must have missed the part when she stab a guy and picked up with her sword.

Wait, you serious?

I guarantee you could not with a sword or whatever, stick it in the handle of a full 5 gallon bucket and toss it over your head. Some of you need to go out in the real world and not live in TV land which is the point of this thread. Hell you couldn’t pick it up.

First off you do realize there’s a level of sensationalism in any action movie right? These silly comments about characters surviving gun shot wounds and shite along the same lines are silly and apply to both men and women yet are only being used one way. Secondly the little guy was running at her, she stabbed him and used his momentum to flip him over. In movie physics it’s not far fetched kind of like any character jumping through or being thrown through a glass window.

I understand that. I just responded to your “she never” when she did. No worries. Men can’t do that either and I roll my eyes when both sexes do it.

No, it's the nefarious intent behind this sort of powerfantasy women-good, whiteman-bad lie.

Also, we are putting a generation of young girls in peril.

They see this sort of bullzhit and think they can square up on men in real life.

This propaganda has real world consequence.

But I didn’t post the words “she never”, I said it’s not the same for a 6 foot specially trained assassin with a sword to kill other women assassins and a few tiny henchmen in a kung fu movie than it is for a 4 foot 10 inch, 80lb girl to beat up a team of gorilla like special forces soldiers. One is a feasible stretch the other is ridiculous.

Because IRL, "little" Tom Cruise could probably physically whip 99% of the women on the Planet.

My daughter, 14 so frick ya'll and your pics, thinks this way. She is tall, 5'8 - 150ish pounds. Thinks she can handle herself if she is attacked. Wants to square up with a kidnapper. I told her to do what girls are supposed to do, scream, run, bite, kick nuts....

So there is truth to your statement, although the 14 year old in her may just be an idiot.

I’ll put it another way, taking gender out of it. If every hero, heroine or super hero/heroine was Super Man people would get bored and sick of it because there are no stakes involved.

Let's hope we never find out!

Also, take her to the range as soon as you feel she is ready!

It’s just a name, there wasn’t 88 people in the gang.
