So during kick boxing yesterday I was punched in the nose. The guy I was fighting with did it completely intentionally in an effort to teach me to keep my hands up. I saw stars and my eyes watered and it bleed a little bit. I just kept going which was difficult because my glasses were all fogged up. Today it's swollen all up but thankfully I'm not having any trouble breathing.
Is it strange that I am actually really proud of this? I'm almost honoured that he punched me so hard. First off becaused he believe I could take it. Second because he was showing me that keeping my hands down is a really bad idea. Sparing is one thing but it's never going to do me any good if we just playfully swat at each other. I don't think I will ever forget again. He is not a teacher, but another student only one at a much higher level. Like someone said on here, guys challenge each other.
I'm glad I was guy enough for him to challenge me.

nothing wrong with being proud of that! It's always nice to know you're being properly included into something. I don't hold back so I wouldn't want anyone else to either

Excellent! You have every right to be proud. When I was a kid I used to want to spar with my brother, but he would refuse to hit me. :p

This sounds like a lot of fun and good stress relief. I need to find somewhere around here that has classes. When I wanted to do karate as a kid I kept getting the response "But why would you want to learn how to beat people up?" On the plus side, I think I got that more because my parents are hippies than because I was a "girl." :laugh: Anyways, I'm glad you're enjoying it.
