Many women walk like men. As if their reproductive organs were on the outside?
There are obvious signs of imbalance in people. A woman who says that chocolate is better than sex surely is admitting to a poor sex life? Worst still is the woman who says that work is better than both sex and chocolate. This is very sad indeed and perhaps cause for relationship therapy. Perhaps begin with Taijiquan lessons.
I'm watching how other women walk in an effort to improve my own awareness.
Taijiquan avoids judgement and condemnation; you do what you can and that's OK. Unless You're a Master and then you must be better.
“It is a self defense exercise that can make your body strong. In the use of this exercise, there are a hundred benefits without one harm. It is a model for the whole country to follow.”
- Ts’ai Chueh-ming
I see women who buzz back and forth, back and forth like a small fly. They always look so haggard and tired and complain that they have so little time and they are so busy. This is not a Taijiquan attitude. If you behave like a fly of course you will get tired, for you are a woman not a fly.
Moving meditation sounds appealing but the actuality is hard. Most people don't want to slow down and know themselves. They'd pretty much do anything to avoid that sort of intimacy.
My Filipino friend thought the Chinese women were silly to wear thin black pantyhose beneath their Taiji uniforms and made a point of saying so. I challenged her to wear pantyhose for a day and see what happened. She did. The following day she described the almost hypnotic effect upon men particularly when she removed her shoes.
I slow down to the point where I really feel my opponent and then it hits me: I spend all my time thinking about my own body when I should be thinking about theirs.
Most women seem to have embraced a certain butch look. They don't wear pantyhose and they don't even walk like women.
Taijiquan requires integrity. This means that pride and vanity are not permitted.
