Men deserve better than having their gender used as cover for petulant, capricious and immature misbehavior.

In response to this post@Daojoan @theindex @vanderwal that opening paragraph give me the wiggins. Especially the bit about aggression in martial arts.
I learned and taught traditional taekwondo for 16 years. At no point was the externalisation of aggression, except in the context of displaying one’s skills for others to learn from or assess, an acceptable behaviour. Martial arts are about learning control, containment, and stillness, even in the moment of delivering the most destructive of techniques.
If Zuck is learning what I’ll term “Cobra Kai” style martial arts, he has terrible teachers. It’s the antithesis of good martial arts. That said, I’m utterly unsurprised that his kind of tech bro digs that approach.
