Often times I feel myself jumping to the "Are you okay?" because I feel that I would do it with anyone, not just women. Not sure if it makes a difference in how you feel, but when it comes to BJJ often times the male/female line gets blurred and I see them through my BJJ eyes, and define them by their ability rather than their gender!! In the end , male or female, I just want all my training partners to be okay :DAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5192988182174634596.post-69222139730037763762012-02-09T12:21:34.189-05:002012-02-09T12:21:34.189-05:00I know the guys are trying to help, and its sweet,...I know the guys are trying to help, and its sweet, but it just makes me cry more when they ask.

Stress + bad night of training/frustration = sudden burst of emotion. I think guys worry that we are hurt if they see tears, so that's what compels them to as if we are ok .LillianDnoreply@blogger.com
