Should I take a martial arts class or call the police?

Roger Huerta UFC Fight Night 19 Walk-Out Shirt

Hi all,

To start, I’m a 25 year old openly gay black man. :) ) Lately i’ve been a victim of harassment from a group of guys that wait for me outside when I walk home from work.
They call me names like queer, fag, pillow biter…etc. They make fun of the clothes I wear, (I like to wear half shirts with a bra under it, skinny jeans, capris with a thong showing in the back) Well lately they’ve been getting somewhat violent with me, especially the other day when I wore high heels, they pushed me to the ground and threw dirt in my face and spit on me. They threatned me and said they’d beat me to a pulp if they saw me in that neighborhood again, I ran home crying.

should I take a martial arts class to defend myself? or should I just report them to the police?

    Do you think is possible for me to ever have a girlfriend ?

    Roger Huerta UFC Fight Night 19 Walk-Out Shirt

    I am 25 years old but i don’t think it’s possible for me to ever have a girlfriend because of my flaws" For Example i am kinda shy i swear too much, i get so frustrated and angry very easily, i am a poor person that depends on the government to survive, i am immature for my age, i am too picky, i don’t consider myself attractive, i still live with my mother and she cooks my meals and hand wishes my clothes but i told my mother i want to do them myself but my mother says she doesn’t mind doing those things for me and i don’t like arguing with her because i can’t win in an argument against women and arguing stinks and i feel guilty for letting my mother do those things for me at my age. I am mainly a very good and very kind person that feels like a loser with those bad flaws. I like to do good deeds for good people but not for the bad people because that’s who i am. I am very kind, sweet, and a sensitive person. I am extremely trustworthy and a very Honest person. I have a very good heart and i have a good sense of humor. I am funny when i don’t try to be. I like to open doors for girls and i gerenally respect women. I like Video Games, Martial Arts, Cosplay, Anime, bike riding, and play yu gi oh the trading card game. It’s extremely hard to find a girls that has all of my interests that i just listed.

        I'd like to ask MA people what I did right/wrong. Social situation that degenerated into martial art use.?

        Roger Huerta UFC Fight Night 19 Walk-Out Shirt

        Hello, all.
        Of course, all may respond, but I would like to particularly sollicit the advice of experienced martial artists.

        I and a long-time friend were drinking and a guy we both knew came along. I don’t like him. I think he got my friend to drink too much the first time and I told him so in private.
        There was a lot of all sorts of talk, as well as further intoxication and marijuana. (I have an inkling that’s part of the mistake, but do elaborate).
        At a certain point, he and I were alone and he started spitting at me and we exchanged words. I told him to stop spitting beer out at me and he kept doing it. I also mentioned I paid for the beer and I had no intention of leaving.
        He spat out beer at my clothes one time too many and I poured a beer all over him. He wasn’t sure, he spat one more time, and I emptied a second bottle over him.
        (I know I made many mistakes)
        Later, when the other guy returned and things were more or less to normal, he physically attacked me as I sat on the couch. I managed to get up and we started tussling. I used the kiai to gather strength and take control of him, because that’s the only thing I could think of and I was very tense, especially since I had just stopped his free hand from grabbing my testicles.
        I did manage to control him. I threw his balance around for a bit, then did a stressed yonkyo on both hands and I managed to sit him down. I then looked at him right in the eyes and said; Can I let you go? Are you going to relax?"
        He lit up and said he would. I let him go and 20 seconds later, he was passed out. He did manage to make it all the way to his bed.

        I have decided I would no longer talk to this person unless he’s cold sober and I will inform him of that. I had some time to think about it and have just come to this conclusion.

        Anyway,. sorry for carrying on, I would like advice. Please, don’t hesitate to tell me what I did wrong. I just want constructive criticism for the furure.
        Thank you.

        Every situation is real.
        Peace out.
        I’m a blue belt in aikido, if you wonder where I’m at.
        Also, all in all, I’m glad nobody got hurt for real in the incident.
        Shienaran: I used the only techniques that came to mind. I was amazed how efficient the kiai could be in relaxing you, but really, I was never certain of being in control until I was.
        I thank my sensei, for whatever methodology he uses, it works for me.
        Actually, I don’t want to pass for a saint, but there were a couple of things that flashed to my mind, and I didn’t want to break any furniture either.
        ;)

          Does anyone have a pair of "jika-tabi"? Are they comfortable, where do I get them, and any problems with them?

          Roger Huerta UFC Fight Night 19 Walk-Out Shirt

          I’m looking at buying a pair of jika-tabi, and I would like some information about them. Jika-tabi are the shoes that are split-toed like this: http://i63.photobucket.com/albums/h155/sbm180_photos/boots/ninjashoes.jpg

          I have some questions about them:

          1) Where can I get them? I’m not looking forward to getting them off the internet, but someone suggested local Martial Arts stores. Would a local Martial Arts Store have them?

          2) Does anyone have a pair of them? What are they like? Do they feel weird? Are they comfortable? I read somewhere that they keep you more alert because they help with blood circulation.

          3) Can I wear them to school, like this: http://i63.photobucket.com/albums/h155/sbm180_photos/boots/t13.jpg. If I start wearing them to school, would that be cool? Can I excercise in them, like trail running or something? I want to get use out of them.

          4) If I get them, what clothes would go with them? I don’t want to stick out in a negative way.

          Thanks.

            How to dress tough, yet feminine?

            Roger Huerta UFC Fight Night 19 Walk-Out Shirt

            So, I do martial arts and I feel tough. When I walk out of the studio I’d still like to look like I can fight and if I get attacked on the street my clothes won’t be more of an issue of movement. I still want to look feminine though. Any style suggestions? I want to look like I can kick *** but still sexy! ;)

            P.S. Please don’t say Tap out because half of those people are posers and can’t even defend themselves.

              Roger Huerta UFC Fight Night 19 Walk-Out Shirt

              I would ask..Taylor Launter for martial art tips and pointers. I would ask Alicia Keys to teach me how to play the piano and I’d ask Selena Gomez how she does her hair and how she styles her clothes.

              Who would you ask??

                  Roger Huerta UFC Fight Night 19 Walk-Out Shirt

                  I have (knee) boots, pants, shirt, doublet, belt, capelet, even a period rapier and hat. Dresses and bodices are not my preference, and since I do martial arts I feel more comfortable in clothes that allow for easier movement, footwork etc. Would it be innappropriate fro a woman to dress as a "swordswoman"??

                    I don’t like to wear all of that Tapout/ UFC stuff because it’s WAY too cliche. Half of those people can’t even actually defend themselves.
