One hit from one of my guys would crush her skull or break her bones.

I found this at Mousels. It's kind of entertaining. Remember guys, just one Viagra a day.

This is from his forum in response to why he doesn't teach women.

"No chics here! June 16 2004, 8:04 AM


Yes, Sandy it's true! I don't teach women. The reasons are both logical and simple.

1. Women do not have the psychological and physical strength to handle the rigors of Contemporary Fighting Arts. They simply cannot keep up with the others. CFA is hard core- women are not.

2. Women hold back the men in class. Its not fair to ask my guys to "ease up on her", "work with her" or "don't hit so hard." My warriors are hungry for combative growth. This "growth" comes through training intensity and you cannot train intensely with a woman. Sorry but its a fact!

3. Woman would get killed in many of my combat scenario drills. One hit from one of my guys would crush her skull or break her bones. I am not interested in dealing with law suits.

4. Keep in mind that CFA is way beyond RBSD, its about creating an elite warrior class in the 21st century. Its about turning men into warriors. Its about rediscovering and unleashing the warrior archetype in the male psyche.

Sandy you exemplify the women who have contributed to the emasculation of men and the sublimation of the warrior within. Guess what baby? We don't buy that **** here at CFA. Men are the hunters and women are the gatherers! Face it!

Contemporary Fighting Arts is for men and always will be. If you don't like it thats tuff ****. Its my art, my system and I deem who will study it. There are hundreds of others schools and systems that will be more than willing to take your money, frankly I am not interested.

For some reason, I assumed this thread involved tea-bagging Alley McBeal.

[DragonzRage]

*edit: nevermind, i found the website. funny as hell!

[Ming Yue]

He's a *******, but at least he's a ******* with principles.

[YinYangDagger]

Blooming Lotus could take him out

[kungfu cowboy]

Is it true that he is a former singer/dancer of The Village People?! Wow! Neat!

ha! LMAO!

I don't know what it is, but lately, guys like Franco just irk me.

a. there's nothing in his bio that indicates he's had any experience as a soldier or a leo.

b. there's all these claims about street experience etc and certification to teach leos and all that jazz which we all know amounts to a hill of beans in reality, i.e there is no nationally recognized standard of certification for leo techs on the street and any soldier who wants to expand martial knowledge outside of what they are given as tuck by the gov, must proceed to the closest centre of instruction for the martial knowledge of their choice.

These are the guys (Franco, and others like him, like Rick Ryan the knife article guy) who claim all this stuff, probably do work out a lot but are incapable of seeing that the simple things are the things that make the difference in real street combat. i.e my glock beats anything you got, I don't care what you have you will not survive a bullet in your eye. My knife will cut you, I don't care how many disarms you practice, I don't care how many contain and restrain procedures you practice. My knife will cut you. My machete will cut you too. My baseball bat will hurt you bad, you can box all day, but one swing to your head and you are out buddy.

anyway, you get my point. Not saying that you can'tr defend against any of these, just saying it is very difficult to train for defense against these.

And, I am finding it to be a tired horse.

Frankly, I practice martial arts because I enjoy them. I enjoy the exercise, I enjoy teh structure and I enjoy the comradery of fellow martial artists. When I did it competitively, I enjoyed the competition, the exercise and the friends.

I don't need to explore my anima, it's there and if it doesn't show when i need it, then I will think of something else I guess, Or I'll get taken out. But chances are in north american society that the only thing taking me out is old age

I'm really really tired of these testosterone fueled stupid @ss testimonials about these guys who "think" they are tough.

Frankly a canadian soldier with 6 months in Rwanda has more cred with me in regards to reality scenarios than 20 of these meatheads.

just ranting, that is all

cheers

I could get along with this guy. LOL

[David Jamieson]

yet another guy capitalizing on a society glutted with fear and consumption

[Ming Yue]

One aspect that separates Sammy Franco from most "arm chair" theoreticians is that Franco has firsthand experience with "street" combat. As a result, Franco's Contemporary Fighting Arts® is based on "real world" experience and application. ... As a result, CFA gives men and women, martial artist or not - the most practical and effective method to defend themselves.

Except for the part where he doesn't actually "train" women. He should probably "remove" that information from his "site" lest it be "misleading".

He looks pretty urban bad ass to me. I bet he could crush my skull.

[David Jamieson]

now this guy...

this guy has some cred, way more than these "street/reality" "experts".

anyway, check this guy's **** out.
