I used to find grappling empowering - in addition to thrilling and challenging. Lately I've been dealing with "subtle" sexism at work. (By subtle, I mean completely obvious to me and challenging to deal with, but not necessarily obvious to my male peers - things like being the only woman in the room at a meeting, being the only woman AND the lowest ranking person in the room, being interrupted more often during discussion, having to prove myself before promotion more than my male predecessors did, over-praised for simple contributions, etc). Anyway, the work situation is stressful and I found going to BJJ was a second opportunity in my day to feel sidelined: almost always being the last person to pair off for drilling, almost always being the third wheel in an uneven numbered class, almost always having to drill with the only other woman -even if she and I had agreed to try to switch it up and faced outward during the pair-ups, or worse, being paired up by exclusion with the kid who somehow gets allowed to take the adult class. I kept making myself go because I love the sport and want to get better, but after three years of grappling and a year at the current academy, it sucked to be dealing with things most men don't have to deal with once they are no longer new. The breaking point for me was when a highly respected fighter started talking to me during a private session (not like that is even cool to either me or my instructor) and told me he and a few others had been making fun of me on facebook. I tried hard not to take this personally, but in fact it IS personal and I felt isolated. I have no idea who they were, what they were making fun of, or in what light this was done - presumably not vicious since the guys there are generally kind, but I felt that I was paying to experience things that were dragging me down rather than building me up. I will train again and hopefully soon, but until I finish dealing with the bullshit at work, I do not have extra psychological room for the non-physical challenges of training in a macho environment.

Now I have 2 toddlers and a disc in my back that's been herniated twice. Needless to say, my Jiu-Jitsu days are likely over, which really sucks. I did other martial arts growing up and none of them compare to BJJ. Not being able to continue BJJ is depressing and only palpable since my main reason now is my children. Having said all that, I do plan on introducing my daughter and son to BJJ as soon as our local school will allow and perhaps I'll be able to get back into BJJ before I turn 40!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8584799702351316273.post-33227436489885360522014-02-21T02:26:35.111-05:002014-02-21T02:26:35.111-05:00Dogs?

These fruits can not be realized on a white belt level. So maybe you are slightly out of your<br /> depth when you say that BJJ is for the dogs. BJJ requires and developes strength of will, spiritual endurance , self discipline, dedication, responsibiliy . It actively works on deminishing the Ego and creating a love for your fellow man . It invotes a sence of Brotherhood and it erodes the desire to inflict pain. In short it works on overcoming the human condition. There is a beauty in this art that many will never experience. You don't understand it yet and that's ok. I wish you well on your journey :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17630539831266427798noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8584799702351316273.post-15278284131394465732013-09-26T14:26:19.003-04:002013-09-26T14:26:19.003-04:00That facepalm was directed towards Michael.
