The sooner people got up, the sooner we could get on with the next technique :)Liam H Wandihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15592644859626736304noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1811893258346327939.post-3451085548766872672011-05-18T09:26:12.421-07:002011-05-18T09:26:12.421-07:00Stand up in base!Stand up in base!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1811893258346327939.post-11151847057402810072011-05-17T19:46:52.778-07:002011-05-17T19:46:52.778-07:00Most of the time, the feeling that I get from an e...Most of the time, the feeling that I get from an extended hand is that they are just being a buddy. I see guys lend a hand to other guys and I'm pretty sure I have offered a hand to guys. I'm not saying they're less of a man by offering to help them up, at least not intentionally! hahaAshleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00389820287771206112noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1811893258346327939.post-25771575047246847232011-05-17T16:59:35.907-07:002011-05-17T16:59:35.907-07:00Productively lazy...that's a nice one...
@Rol...Productively lazy...that's a nice one...<br /><br />@Rollo...yeah...there are some people out there that really...really don't know that. <br /><br />Georgette...see...that set off my insecurity alarm. I always felt like the offering was a sign that I was still "the new chick". Only one of the higher belts still offers, but I think he's just the kind of guy that will never be 100% comfortable fighting a woman. The last guy who did it...new, but he's still in that stage of telling the "don't hurt me" jokes and making hyperbolic comments about me beating up all the guys. I'm hoping he grows past it soon.Meganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13229873505463921052noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1811893258346327939.post-24108070266145816162011-05-17T09:45:01.949-07:002011-05-17T09:45:01.949-07:00Hey Megan,

It's not to pull them up from the ground with a yank. At least that's how I've been taught.Rollohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09545285554122719836noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1811893258346327939.post-33723898313482009192011-05-16T23:48:58.347-07:002011-05-16T23:48:58.347-07:00Reach up and grab their triceps.
