Andrew Klavan tells the truth.....and has started a tiny little to do with his comments on the show "The Witcher." In that show, a grandmother aged woman goes into a battle in heavy armor and fights against male opponents.......and Andrew Klavan said it took him out of the show, since it would be all of 5 seconds before she was killed.....
That is the truth....and the guys who play tag with metal sticks went nuts.....
Klavan is not talking about tag with metal sticks....which is what these morons are talking about when they compare female fencers to male fencers...today. He is talking about actual medieval combat as portrayed in the Witcher.
A woman, marching night and day in heavy armor, with little sleep, bad food, terrible hygiene, poor hydration, running into the fight, is going to die..........a woman at a fencing tournament, Kendo, or western fencing, with plenty of exercise, plenty of sleep, great diet, and plenty of rest, driving to the tournament, before the tournament is still going to be at a disadvantage, but when it is tag, like western fencing is...she can likely beat men also playing tag. Actual combat, where tag becomes bashing and body slams into the ground....she would die.
That is truth.
Here is Andrew Klavan stating the truth.....it starts at the 39 minute mark, the video is behind a paywall screen, but you can hear his comments, you just can't see the video....
The video doesn't want to play here....to see the video on youtube, it is the Andrew Klavan show #821 again, the commentary starts at the 39 minute mark
Here is one idiot who didn't pay attention to what Klavan actually said...
